| A simple question: how do I get a sound to pley?
At the mom. I got a trigger that makes use the mudcommand "page" with a line "Send ("page Mazarin Time = On") - which sends a beep to my character (= Mazarin). However I could use a direct command (like "PlaySound "beep.waw" or whatever). I just don't know howto accieve this.
Any help?
Thank you.

| I have placed (pasted) the line
"PlaySound (1, "c:\sound\boeing.wav", false, 0, 0)"
as mentioned in the example in among my trigs as mentioned in the example that was referred to. This however gives only a short beep and not the chime-type sound it should. When I replace this line with the command
"Send ("page Mazarin Questtime")"
then I get the correct sound. - I have of course placed a file with the name "boeing.wav" in the directory c:\sound (there is no other file in the directory).
The result is the same independantly of whether I have a full path specified or not.
What might be wrong?

| If this is Lua, try putting "check" around the call to see what is going wrong. Also, in Lua backslashes need to be doubled. And if this is send-to-script they have to be doubled again.
It might be easier to use forward slashes. So:
check ( PlaySound (1, "c:/sound/boeing.wav", false, 0, 0) )
