Thread: Music and Sounds

This is a tutorial about sounds and music ingame and how to use and handle them in a better way. If you accuse me of leeching then just leave.

Why did I do this?

I made this tutorial because there isn't many tutorials on sounds/music also because I want to try using enums

Part 1: Add the 'Sound' class.

Code:

public class Sound {

	//TODO : Implement more sounds...
	public static enum SOUND_LIST {
		/*
		 * Miscellaneous sounds.
		 */
		FOOD_EAT(317),
		ITEM_DROP(376),
		ITEM_COOK(357),
		ITEM_PICKUP(358),
		FIRE_LIGHT(375),
		ARROW_SHOOT(370),
		TELEPORT(202),
		BONE_BURY(380),
		POTION_DRINK(334),
		TREE_CUT_BEGIN(471),
		TREE_CUTTING(472),
		TREE_EMPTY(473),
		LOG_FLETCH(375),

		/*
		 * Magic
		 */
		ALCHEMY_LOW(224),
		ALCHEMY_HIGH(223),
		BLITZ_ICE(1110),
		
		/*
		 * Weapons
		 */
		ATTACK_WHIP(4151, 1080),
		SPECIAL_WHIP(4151, 1081),
		ATTACK_FLAIL(4755, 1059),
		ATTACK_GMAUL(4153, 1079),
		ATTACK_DDS(5698, 793),
		SPECIAL_DDS(5698, 385),
		SPECIAL_DLONG(1305, 390),
		ATTACK_SCIMITAR(396),
		ATTACK_LUNGE(398),
		ATTACK_HAMMERS(4747, 1062),
		ATTACK_GREATAXE_SLASH(4718, 1057),
		SPECIAL_BOW(386),
		SPECIAL_DBA(1377, 389),
		SPECIAL_DSPEAR(1249, 388),
		SPECIAL_MACE(1434, 387),
		SPECIAL_MAUL(4153, 1082),
		SHIELD_BLOCK(791);
		
		int weapon, weaponSound, sound;
		
		SOUND_LIST(int weapon, int weaponSound) {
			this.weapon = weapon;
			this.weaponSound = weaponSound;
		}

		SOUND_LIST(int sound) {
			this.sound = sound;
		}

		public int getSound() {
			return sound;
		}

		public int getWeaponSound(int weapon) {
			if (weapon == this.weapon)
				return weaponSound;
			else
				return sound;
		}
	}

}

Part 2: Add the 'Music' class.

Code:

public class Music {

	public static enum CITY_MUSIC {
		VARROCK(169),
		WATERFALL(125);

		int music;

		CITY_MUSIC(int music) {
			this.music = music;
		}

		public int getMusic() {
			return music;
		}
	}

}

Thats just the handling of sounds/music if you want to add more then simply change the last ; to a , and then add a new sound. Sorry if thats not enough sounds for your likings.

Part 3: Playing the sounds

Go to your client class and declare the following method if it isn't declared;

Code:

	public void playSound(int i1, int i2, int i3) {
		outStream.createFrame(174);
		outStream.writeWord(i1);
		outStream.writeByte(i2);
		outStream.writeWord(i3);
	}

Part 4: Usage

Search for case 87: and below it add:

playSound(Sound.SOUND_LIST.ITEM_DROP.getSound(), 0, 0);

Part 5: Playing and stopping music

Code:

	public void musicManager(String action, int songID) {
		if (action == "PLAY") {
			outStream.createFrame(74);
			outStream.writeWordBigEndian(songID);
		}
		if (action == "STOP") {
			outStream.createFrame(74);
			outStream.writeWordBigEndian(-1);
		}
	}

Part 6: Usage

Search for case 121: and below it add:

Code:

musicManager("PLAY", Music.CITY_MUSIC.WATERFALL.getMusic());

And you are done! There should be NO errors.
