Cocoon JS Sound Issues

[Ninjadoodle]

Hi guys

 

I've been playing with Cocoon Js trying to get my game ready for devices, but I'm having troubles with the sound.

 

- Music/Sound On/Off buttons don't work (i'm assuming this is a Cocoon issue as they work perfectly well on the web).

 

- Cocoon Js only seems to play one Sound Effect at a time, if you try to play a second one, it just doesn't play.

 

I'm wondering if anyone has had any experience with this and whether there might be any solutions?

 

Thank you heaps in advance!

I have ported several apps with cocoonjs to ipad and android. (Unfortunately they were not programmed in panda but

CocoonJS had support for multichannel sound and i have had it working in my apps just fine without any extra ajustments.

If you want to I can run a quick test for you with panda in my environment.

Hi @Stephan

 

Thank you for your offer. I'll try and play around some more, so not to waste your time

If I still can't get it working, I will put a little test together.

 

Did you by any chance manage to make On/Off sound/music buttons that work?

 

Right now, if I click mine (which work on the web), the code obviously crashes somewhere, as their tweens don't complete and they just remain de-pressed without the sound changing.

 

Thank you again!

Might got something to do with HTML5 Audio (CocoonJS doesn't support Web Audio), i will take a look asap.

Hi @enpu

 

Thank you for checking it out!

[enpu]

Can you try now with latest develop branch?

 

And can you show your code on your music/sound on/off buttons

Hi @enpu

 

I've tried with the latest develop version and still the same issue.

 

I've had a look into Cocoon JS some more and it seems that this problem only occurs with Canvas+ (it works with Webview+)

 

The message from Ludei says - "Canvas+ can only render HTML5 canvas elements" not sure whether this is relevant?

 

Sorry, I'm new to this whole wrapper thing

 

Here is the on/off code I use (works on web and in webview+)

buttonMusic.click = buttonMusic.tap = function() {            buttonMusic.scale.set(0.75, 0.75);            game.tweenEngine.stopTweensForObject(buttonMusic.scale);            if (game.audio.musicVolume > 0) {                game.audio.setMusicVolume(0);                buttonMusic.alpha = 0.5;                game.scene.addTween(buttonMusic.scale, {x:1, y:1, alpha:0.5}, 250, {delay:0, easing:'Back.Out'}).start();            } else {                game.audio.setMusicVolume(1);                buttonMusic.alpha = 1;                game.scene.addTween(buttonMusic.scale, {x:1, y:1, alpha:1.0}, 250, {delay:0, easing:'Back.Out'}).start();            }        }        buttonSound.click = buttonSound.tap = function() {            buttonSound.scale.set(0.75, 0.75);            game.tweenEngine.stopTweensForObject(buttonSound.scale);            if (game.audio.soundVolume > 0) {                game.audio.setSoundVolume(0);                buttonSound.alpha = 0.5;                game.scene.addTween(buttonSound.scale, {x:1, y:1, alpha:0.5}, 250, {delay:0, easing:'Back.Out'}).start();            } else {                game.audio.setSoundVolume(1);                buttonSound.alpha = 1;                game.scene.addTween(buttonSound.scale, {x:1, y:1, alpha:1.0}, 250, {delay:0, easing:'Back.Out'}).start();            }        }

Can you try this with latest develop branch:

buttonMusic.click = buttonMusic.tap = function() {    buttonMusic.scale.set(0.75, 0.75);    game.tweenEngine.stopTweensForObject(buttonMusic.scale);    if (game.audio.toggleMusic()) {        buttonMusic.alpha = 0.5;        game.scene.addTween(buttonMusic.scale, { x: 1, y: 1 }, 250, { easing:'Back.Out' }).start();    } else {        buttonMusic.alpha = 1;        game.scene.addTween(buttonMusic.scale, { x: 1, y: 1 }, 250, { easing:'Back.Out' }).start();    }}

Hi @enpu

 

Just tried this and it seems to work in Canvas+, I also tried the same with sound, but I don't think you have implemented that method yet as it crashes.

[enpu]

Hmm should not crash, you tried like this?

buttonMusic.click = buttonMusic.tap = function() {    buttonMusic.scale.set(0.75, 0.75);    game.tweenEngine.stopTweensForObject(buttonMusic.scale);    if (game.audio.toggleMusic()) {        buttonMusic.alpha = 0.5;        game.scene.addTween(buttonMusic.scale, { x: 1, y: 1 }, 250, { easing:'Back.Out' }).start();    } else {        buttonMusic.alpha = 1;        game.scene.addTween(buttonMusic.scale, { x: 1, y: 1 }, 250, { easing:'Back.Out' }).start();    }}buttonSound.click = buttonSound.tap = function() {    buttonSound.scale.set(0.75, 0.75);    game.tweenEngine.stopTweensForObject(buttonSound.scale);    if (game.audio.toggleSound()) {        buttonSound.alpha = 0.5;        game.scene.addTween(buttonSound.scale, { x: 1, y: 1 }, 250, { easing:'Back.Out' }).start();    } else {        buttonSound.alpha = 1;        game.scene.addTween(buttonSound.scale, { x: 1, y: 1 }, 250, { easing:'Back.Out' }).start();    }}

Hi @enpu

 

Sorry, I missed a variable name change, that was causing the crash. It works now

 

Is there a way to check whether the music / sound is off / on?

 

I need to set the sound button graphics to off or on when changing scenes and I used to check whether the sound volume was 0, but that doesn't seem to work anymore.

 

Thank you very much for adding these methods!!

[enpu]

Use these variables:

game.audio.soundMutedgame.audio.musicMuted
