Pairing sound files together so they play at the same time

#1 Post by Friendbot2000 » Tue Mar 15, 2011 10:56 am

I have reached an impasse in the development of my VN, Identity Crisis. I am trying to play two "music" files at once, a background music of a summer morning and a alarm clock ring. Trouble is that they don't play simultaneously in the background. Now I know why, the alarm sound is below the summer morning sound. However, I was wondering if there was a way to pair them together in RenPy. Any suggestions?

I could make some kind of dowhile loop but I was hoping there would be a simpler way to do it.

Did you put them in different channels?

You know, I completely forgot to look under channels in the wiki. I pored over everything else and it seems I must have overlooked it. This is exactly what I wanted. Thank you Anima :)
