Godot 3.2: Let's Build a 2D Platformer!: Part 16 (Sound Effects & Music!)

[@doctormustaqueem2005]

Loved this tutorial series. very simple to understand. I am new to learn how to built games. Your work is fantastic . Please release more videos continuously. Followings your tutorial to built a polished game (hopefully).

[@corvidashgame5613]

This tutorial has been so helpful in helping me learn the basics of making a 2D game! Thank you for such a thorough set of instructional videos :D

[@mummelputz8939]

To making sounds you can use BeepBox :) Makes a lot of fun and is really easy to use.

[@qqq9542]

Woohoooo the man is back!!! Welcome back BornCG!! Can’t wait to watch the whole video :)

[@green_markhor]

First. Congrats on your marriage. Also can you make the next video about "lives". Like 3 player lives.

[@harryantonio3156]

Pro tip: you can watch movies at Kaldrostream. Me and my gf have been using it for watching lots of of movies during the lockdown.

@Harry Antonio Yea, I've been watching on Kaldrostream for since december myself :)

If you already have VLC Player and you want to convert an audio file to OGG or WAV: 1. Click Media in the top left. 2. Select Convert / Save from the drop-down menu. 3. Click +Add button to the right of the pop-up. 4. Browse to and double-click the file you want to convert. 5. Once you have a file selected click Convert / Save at the bottom. 6. In the next popup click the Wrench symbol to the right of Profile. 7. Under the Encapsulation tab select either Ogg/Ogm or WAV. 8. Click on the Audio Codec tab. 9. Click on the Codec drop-down menu. 10. Select Vorbis for Ogg/Ogm or WAV for WAV. (Make sure it matches what you chose in the Encapsulation tab.) 11. Click Browse to the right of Destination File at the bottom. 12. Name it what you want and make sure the extension matches your selection. (Note: It likes to keep the old extension which can result in some confusion.) 13. Click Start at the bottom right. Sometimes VLC will appear to minimize or close, but if you check the folder where you saved your converted file, it should be there. It can take awhile for bigger files, so keep that in mind. Also, I primarily use this to convert files to WAV, so if you convert something to Ogg and it doesn't work, I don't know that I will be of much help.

Nice been waiting for this one

[@thatoneguy416]

thanks for the tutorial! now i can add audio in my game!

[@auscan7739]

If you click on the audio in the inspector you get to change the looping setting

[@jacksorjacksor]

Great tutorial, thank you so much! Here are part of #stopWaitingForGodot ! The default looping/import menu is SO STRANGE and thank you for such a clear explanation and solution!!

[@calmguitar8530]

Another thing you can do to turn off looping is just to tap the audio in the stream area in the inspector.

[@ap-do8ll]

ty

[@helianthe3457]

Be careful to take the correct audio node, and also I had to move the $SoundSquash up (right below the $animated_sprite) because my timer was too short and the sound effect didn't have the time to play. It fixed the issue for me, if anyone has that problem as well. Great video as always!

[@slayer5171]

Hello Mr. Colin, love your youtube series so much teaching about Godot Engine, learn so much from you. Would you make more tutorials on Godot? example: how to use configfile in Godot to save user configuration and users level.

[@alialhasan2515]

thank you so much for this amazing series

[@aben776]

Adding sound and music was the easiest lesson. Great video!

[@ragenut1168]

If the volume of the music on level 1 gets lower the farther you are from the beginning of the level. Try making the MusicLevel node a child of the Player/Steve node, just like the Camera2D

[@Jeansou21]

Yeah, that happenned to me, good idea!

[@axelbengo8726]

Or go to the "max distance" property of your audio in the inspector and put a larger number like 9999999999999 👌

[@caiofernando]

It's a boring process, but it really adds to the game experience. Thanks!

[@1986DarkStalker]

Thanks for the tutorial! Is there a way to add multiple sfx to one node, so that you can activate them in code like animations? (ex.: something like sfx_node.play_sound(sound1))

[@MrJeepty]

excellent work as always

[@cinetube9348]

i am a new subscriber now, keep it going, thank you for your nice project

[@DJDMusic_]

you could go press the arrow by jumpsound and click edit and then you have loop settings

[@benperrin1612]

Great tutorial series thank you for putting it together!! Do you have any plans to create a tutorial for moving to the next level rather than the ‘You Win’ screen and then more importantly saving what level the user is on when they return to the game? Thanks!

[@jbanimations8475]

I don't know if it is only a new version thing but when I click on the stream in the inspector it opens a small panel with a loop option.

yoo having a problem with my sound not playing, dunno what it is. Heres my code: extends CharacterBody2D extends CharacterBody2D const SPEED = 120.0 const JUMP_VELOCITY = -300.0 # Get the gravity from the project settings to be synced with RigidBody nodes. var gravity = ProjectSettings.get_setting("physics/2d/default_gravity") @onready var animated_sprite = $AnimatedSprite2D @onready var jump_sound = $jump_sound func _physics_process(delta): # Add the gravity. if not is_on_floor(): velocity.y += gravity * delta # Handle jump. if Input.is_action_just_pressed("jump") and is_on_floor(): velocity.y = JUMP_VELOCITY jump_sound.play() # Get the input direction and handle the movement/deceleration. # As good practice, you should replace UI actions with custom gameplay actions. # get the input direction: -1, 0, 1 var direction = Input.get_axis("move_left", "move_right") # flip sprite if direction > 0: animated_sprite.flip_h = false elif direction < 0: animated_sprite.flip_h = true # Play animations if is_on_floor(): if direction == 0: animated_sprite.play("idle") else: animated_sprite.play("run") else: animated_sprite.play("jumping") # Apply movement if direction: velocity.x = direction * SPEED else: velocity.x = move_toward(velocity.x, 0, SPEED) move_and_slide()

Absolutely! Godot added support for mp3 sound files in the next version I think.

please read full and reply......please....i am new at coding and game development ... i am following your 3d game tutorial and can you please tell me how to change the player ball's color to light red and brown when it hits an enemy in 3d game........ i am also following this tutorial of yours...please reply and tell me how to do it.....won't consume much of your time

[@BornCG]

Like in this platformer 2D mini-series where I programmed the player to turn red when hit by an enemy using 'modulate', I'm confident you can do the same with a texture in 3D... or even swap the texture image on a 3D mesh in-game using code. .. here's the official Godot Docs page on doing this, which is somewhat cryptic, but lists methods that are available to be run on a meshInstance: docs.godotengine.org/en/3.2/classes/class_meshinstance.html

[@mortykun]

Create an enemy scene like the slime enemy in this tutorial. Except the area2D will be a large rectangle. When the player enters it, instead of hurting the player like in the tutorial, make your "block enemy" fall instead.

[@The10ie]

it is sad that you cant use mp3 :(

Godot 3.2.4 Coming later in March or April 2021?) is adding mp3 support. Converting from wav or ogg is easy apparently using VLC media player.

I have a problem with my sound not playing unless I remove the "queue_free()" this is the code: extends Area2D @onready var game_manager = %GameManager @export var Depleted_Effect : PackedScene func _on_body_entered(body): if body.name == "CharacterBody2D": $Soundpickup.play() # Get the parent node where you want to add the particle effect var level_parent: Node = get_parent() # Spawn particle effect var effect_instance: GPUParticles2D = Depleted_Effect.instantiate() effect_instance.position = position level_parent.add_child(effect_instance) effect_instance.emitting = true queue_free() game_manager.add_point() Please help me

[@jimmygrenier9668]

Basically, the "Queue_free()" part tells your node it's due for termination, so it most likely kill the node before the sound effects even starts. I had to modify mine with an adjusted timer (set the wait time to 0.135s) to make the FX play, add the point to the point counters and THEN, call the queue_free(). That's what I did: func _on_body_entered(body): $Timer.start() # Start a timer to delay queue_free if (body.name == "CharacterBody2D"): $CollectibleFx.play() game_manager.add_point() func _on_timer_timeout(): queue_free() #this will be called after the timer expires That way, I had my sound FX and my point going fine, then the collectible vanished. If you time your "wait time" correctly, it should look good and work fine too.
