Hi, I'm not sure wether or not this is a bug, but when I start my game with the command line -ns then it keeps on playing all sounds, instead of playing no sounds. I tend to program whilst having media player on with my favourite music, but it's quite annoying when it's this command line option isn't quite working. Is this infact a bug, or does those command line options need to be called in a specific order .. ?

Just in case it's something I did wrong, here's what I use:
Code:

---

myscript.wdl -nx 100 -ns

---

Cheers

It's actually -os for "no sound", not -ns. I've mentioned this a few times for my 2D game....

Aahh okey, thanks! That figures .. So the manual should be fixed in that respect, thanks again uli,

Cheers

I don't get why it's "-os" myself. Case in point:

-w3d - weak 3D
-wnd - force windowed mode
-nx ### - set nexus to this value (in megabytes)

They all use a similar system. "-os", however, doesn't. "-ns" would make more sense for "no sound". As far as I can hypothesize, the "o" must be relate to the German way to say "no sound". I don't know German so I'm unable to verify this.

Yes, you are right, in German it's 'ohne sound', where 'ohne' means 'without', so that's where the -os comes from. Lol, as long as it works it's fine with me, however the manual is misleading off course,

Cheers

There are plenty of mistakes in the manual. I found the -os case from using SED since there's an option as a checkbox for setting this commandline. That's how I knew about it. Setting commandlines in a published product... that I don't know.

"-ns" has only effect on sounds, but not on media files. So all media_... instructions still play even when you start with "-ns".

AFAIK there is no "-os" command line option in A6.

Mmm, you are right, the -os doesn't work either anymore if it ever worked that is. Eventhough it's not really a big deal, it would be nice if media_... commands would also be not played when -ns is used ..

Cheers
