Music doesn't fadeout

[lykoia]

Hello, newbie here.

I wanted to make the music fade out but it just simply doesn't work.
Here's the code:

Code: Select all

scene old-park-entrance with fade
stop music fadeout 3.0
play music "forest.mp3" loop fadein 3.0

I'm not sure what I did wrong but only the fade in from forest.mp3 works but the fadeout for all music.

Thank you in advance

I think you can also do

Code: Select all

play music "forest.mp3" loop fadein 3.0 fadeout 3.0

i haven't had much experience with music though...

That solution will first fade out the old music, then fade in the new one. For a cross-fade, you can use a second channel:

Code: Select all

default active_music_channel = 'music'	# stores which channel is playing and which not
default inactive_music_channel = 'music2'
 
init python:
    renpy.music.register_channel('music2')	# register the new channel for renpy
     
    def playmusic(name, fade=3.0):	# standard fade is 3 seconds
        global active_music_channel, inactive_music_channel	# be able to change the two "stores"
        active_music_channel, inactive_music_channel = inactive_music_channel, active_music_channel	# swap the two "stores"
        renpy.music.stop(channel=inactive_music_channel, fadeout=fade)	# fade out the music in one channel ...
        renpy.music.play(name, channel=active_music_channel, fadein=fade)	# and fade in the music in the other channel
         
label start:
	$ playmusic('forest.mp3')
	"wait for a few seconds, then click"
	$ playmusic('othermusic.mp3')
	"see?"
