Change main menu music during the game? [Solved]

[Hipi]

I can use persistent in screen so I can use different main menu pictures when I reach the different endings or points in the story... but I also want to change the menu music and I've tried all, but no one worked, if I set one specific music it won't change because an if/else statement... I don't know what to do, I need help

Thank you

Random play music menu:
Option.rpy
define config.main_menu_music = renpy.random.shuffle(["music1.mp3", "music2.mp3", "music3.mp3", "music4.mp3"] )


Persistent:
Option.rpy

define config.main_menu_music = "heppiend" + persistent.last_t + ".ogg"

else

$ config.main_menu_music = "heppiend" + persistent.last_t + ".ogg

Last_t =1 will be heppiend1.ogg

I have this error:

"coercing to Unicode: need string or buffer, NoneType found"

I tried putting persistant.menu = 1 and ="1" and none worked

but I also want to change the menu music

There are several ways... Here one of them (Classical).

in options.rpy:

Code: Select all

define config.main_menu_music = None

somewhere in script (outside of label start):

Code: Select all

label main_menu:
    if persistent.musicon:
        $ renpy.music.play('new_music.mp3', channel='music', loop=True)
    else:
        $ renpy.music.play('old_music.mp3', channel='music', loop=True)
    jump main_menu_screen

for control, in main script:

Code: Select all

    $ persistent.musicon = True / False

main_menu_screen is just an example? I have a label splashscreen, I tried doing this:

Code: Select all

 label splashscreen:

    scene black
    with Pause (1.5)

    show splash with dissolve
    with Pause(1.2)

    jump main_menu
    
label main_menu:
    if persistent.musicon:
        $ renpy.music.play("tl/menu2.mp3", channel='music', loop=True)
    else:
        $ renpy.music.play("tl/menu1.mp3", channel='music', loop=True)
    return

It works the change of music but... it starts the game immediately instead of enter in the main menu screen

Use the label "before_main_menu" instead.

Thank you, it worked!!

main_menu_screen is just an example?

No. The special label's name, like before_main_menu

it starts the game immediately instead of enter in the main menu screen

splashscreen's block must be ended with return, not jump.
Here several examples: https://www.renpy.org/wiki/renpy/doc/co ... lashscreen

it worked!!
