Basically I want a SFX to play when Link steps on the Step > Next combo.

I have a wonderful script that plays a SFX when the combo directly under the FFC
changes, but that script prevents the Step > Next combo from changing into
the next combo.

It's dangerous to go alone. Take script!

CODE

//D0 is the ID of the combo you want to trigger the sound
//D1 is the sound to play
//This script find any combo of a certain ID and changes
//it to the next combo in the list, playing a sound while
//doing so.

ffc script soundcombo{
    void run(int comboid, int sfx){
        while(true){
            for(int i=0; i<=175; i++){
                if(Screen->ComboD[i]==comboid){
                    Game->PlaySound(sfx);
                    Screen->ComboD[i]++;
                }
            }
            Waitframe();
        }
    }
}

Put the combo you want to play the sound between the step->next combo and the combo you want it to switch to.

Here's an alternative script if you only need one per screen (well, you could also put more than one of these FFC scripts on the screen if you need more, but that would be annoying if you have a bunch). Also, Poke's version will incrememnt the combo id by one after the step -> next combo goes into effect. Not that that's a problem, or anything. It's just an FYI.

Here's an alternative version. Just place the FFC script over the combo you want it to check, then it'll play the sfx in d0.

CODE

// FFC script that will play a sound effect when the combo under it changes
// d0 = The sound effect to play
ffc script sfxOnComboChange
{
    void run(int sfx)
    {
        int comboLoc = ComboAt(this->X+8, this->Y+8);
        int comboNum = Screen->ComboD[comboLoc];

        while(Screen-ComboD[comboLoc] == comboNum)
            Waitframe();

        Game->PlaySound(sfx);
    }
}

Note that I'm not at a computer that has ZQuest, so I can't test it, but I'm pretty certain it'll work.

Tiny correction, for those likely to copy and paste:

CODE

// FFC script that will play a sound effect when the combo under it changes
// d0 = The sound effect to play
ffc script sfxOnComboChange
{
    void run(int sfx)
    {
        int comboLoc = ComboAt(this->X+8, this->Y+8);
        int comboNum = Screen->ComboD[comboLoc];

        while(Screen->ComboD[comboLoc] == comboNum)
            Waitframe();

        Game->PlaySound(sfx);
    }
}

        Game->PlaySound(sfx);
    }
}

This has the same problem. The FFC above the step > next combo prevents the
step > next combo from changing to the next combo.

Now to test Pokemonmaster64's script.

EDIT: Pokemonmaster64's script worked. Thanks

I need such a script for "step->secrets (permanent)"-combos.
Can anybody help me please?

I have a script that will do what you need:

Pokemonmaster64's ffc script soundcombo

CODE

//D0 is the ID of the combo you want to trigger the sound
//D1 is the sound to play
//This script find any combo of a certain ID and changes
//it to the next combo in the list, playing a sound while
//doing so.

ffc script soundcombo{
    void run(int comboid, int sfx){
        while(true){
            for(int i=0; i<=175; i++){
                if(Screen->ComboD[i]==comboid){
                    Game->PlaySound(sfx);
                    Screen->ComboD[i]++;
                }
            }
            Waitframe();
        }
    }
}

To use this script, make a combo for your "step->secrets (permanent)"-combo (#1).
A combo for it to change to (#2) (and then duplicate #2 in the combo slot immediately following #2 to make #3).
D0 = combo (#2) in my example
D1 = SFX

Put a secret flag on your "step->secrets (permanent)"-combo (#1).
And set that secret flag to combo (#2) in my example.

This will work anytime combo (#2) is present on the screen, so one FFC can
be used for multiple secrets, and you don't need to place the FFC anywhere in particular.

[Lord Settra!]

Your second script sounds good, thx. ^^

Edit:
The only thing, the second script does, is to don't activate the secret. XD
I will try the first one.

Edit2:
The first one works, thank you.

[Cukeman]

Well the second script doesn't need to activate the secret.
That part is taken care of in the combo and flags used.

But the choice is yours.

Edited by Cukeman, 26 February 2012 - 07:49 PM.

[Lord Settra!]

OK, but the problem is that the "step->secret"-combo works like a "(none)"-combo, when I use the second script. But I don't care about this, because the first one works.

[Cukeman]

not if you set it up with inherent flags like a tiered secret

EDIT:

I'm sorry, Lord Settra! you are correct. My thinker must be tired.

The very reason I requested the script you are using was because step next combos
don't change to the next combo when the other ffc script is above them

[Lord Settra!]

No problem and thx again for your help.

[Jared]

I hate to "revive" this again, but how come the sound is playing again when I go back onto the screen?

How are you using this?

[Jared]

I have 2 "stepped" combos in my combo thing, but it's not doing anything.
