Music.Play ("name.wav")

or

Music.Play ("location.wav")

if u only type the name it will look in the same folder that turing is saved to

Music.Play ("location.wav")

But with those you will have to use a process...

Music.PlayFileLoop will play music, like Music.PlayFile, except you don't need to fork it.

Try it out and you will see what I mean. Example;


Music.PlayFileLoop("FileName.mid")
put "hi"



Music.PlayFile("FileName.mid")
put "hi"


Make sure to actually play a music file or else it will look the same.

Nop doesnt work doesnt help you. Say why, the error you got. Probably just giving the wrong location for your program.


C:\Program Files\Turing\Crawling.mid

Thats a wrong directory. You need;

C:/Program Files/Turing/Crawling.mid

Reverse the slashes.

Ok thanks it works.... music file was corrupt in turing..? o well

Next Question:

I want this in my back ground with the text... How do i do it?


setscreen ("graphic,title: The Apprentice By: Andrew Saggiorato,nobuttonbar")
colourback (black)
cls

process DoMusic
    loop
        Music.PlayFile ("Apprentice.wav")
    end loop
end DoMusic

fork DoMusic

var word : string := " Do You Have What It Takes?"
var cola : int := 30
colorback (black)
for row : 1 .. 25
    for col : 1 .. 80
        put " " ..
    end for
end for
color (white)
for a : 1 .. length (word)
    locate (22, cola)
    cola += 1
    put word (a)
    delay (100)
end for

for decreasing i : maxy .. 0 
    RGB.SetColour (1, 0, 0, i * (1 / maxy)) 
    Draw.Line (0, maxy - i, maxx, maxy - i, 1) 
end for 

for a : 1 .. 500 
    var x := Rand.Int (0, maxx) 
    var y := Rand.Int (150, maxy) 
    var c := Rand.Int (16, 31) 
    Draw.Dot (x, y, c) 
end for 

drawfillbox (0, 0, maxx, Rand.Int (25, 30), 7) 
var hold : int 
for i : 1 .. 200 
    hold := Rand.Int (0, maxx) 
    drawfillbox (hold, 0,hold+Rand.Int (10,20), Rand.Int (0, 100), 7) 
end for

i don't mean to be a nay sayer....but the slashes DO go that way

its c:\ (see colen back slash)
and http://

different prompts use different signs...and just so we don't mix the ftp up
it ftp>
not ftp<

and I agree...that was not the brightest thing making a new thread...isn't this kid suppose to be intellegent?!

I want that text and style in the stary building night background how can i do that?

isnt Music.Play to make your own music... like music notes... just like in the play command  :?:

colorback (black) 
for row : 1 .. 25 
    for col : 1 .. 80 
        put " " .. 
    end for 
end for 
color (white)

are these suppose to be your "stars"?

you might want to rethink the way you did that...first the colour needs to be set before you try to write black on black...secondly...maybe you might want to try using maxcol and maxrow...its just easier....and thirdly...why are you outputting inviewable spaces?!

put "/"

then try this

put "\" 

you will get an error. if you want the backslash you have to do another one.

put "\\"

Whenever you have a backslash in a qoute it means you can use any character. Usually a ".

Example;

put "\""

Actually try it out.

Thats why in Turing you must reverse the slashes to get a file. Or put two of them. If you put two backslashes it donates one to saying "The next character can be used" and so the second backslash is just a regular backslash.
