Unity3D – Add Multiple Audio Sources – Javascript

Add Audio Sources to THIS GameObject – Advanced

1. Create a Empty Game Object and assign AddAudioSources.js:

#pragma strict

var myAudioClip : AudioClip[]; // Array of audio clips - fill it in Inspector
var mySources : AudioSource[]; // Array of audio souces
var nbOfSources : int; // Assign in Inspector the number of souces into array 
 
function Start()
{ 
    mySources = new AudioSource[nbOfSources]; // Create an Array of Audio Source
 
    for(source in mySources)// genera un array del tipo -> mySources[0].clip...
    {
        source = gameObject.AddComponent("AudioSource") as AudioSource;
    }
    
    // If you have 3 intems into array...
    mySources[0].clip = myAudioClip[0];
    mySources[1].clip = myAudioClip[1];
    mySources[2].clip = myAudioClip[2];
    
    // Others setup...
    mySources[0].playOnAwake = false; // not play in awake
    mySources[0].volume = 0.2; // setup volume
    mySources[0].Play(); // play the audio clip
 
}
	
function Update(){
	}

2. Inspector> AddAudioSources.js> AudioClip[]>Size, resize the array and DRAG AND DROP your .wav files into empty slots

3. Inspector> AddAudioSources.js> AudioSource[]>Size, resize the array

4. Play and watch inside Inspector> Empty Game Object

Add Audio Sources to ANOTHER GameObject

1. Create a Cube

2. Create a Empty Game Object and assign AddAudioSources.js:

#pragma strict

var myAudioClip : AudioClip[]; // Array of audio clips - fill it in Inspector
var mySources : AudioSource[]; // Array of audio souces
var nbOfSources : int; // Assign in Inspector the number of souces into array 
 
private var cubeobj : GameObject; // for find with name gameobject 
 
function Start()
{ 
    cubeobj = GameObject.Find("/Cube"); // Find gameobject with name

    mySources = new AudioSource[nbOfSources]; // Create an Array of Audio Source
 
    for(source in mySources)// genera un array del tipo -> mySources[0].clip...
    {
        source = cubeobj.AddComponent("AudioSource") as AudioSource;
    } 
}
	
function Update(){
	}

3. Inspector> AddAudioSources.js> AudioSource[]>Size, resize the array

4. Play and watch inside Inspector> Cube

Unity3D – CSharp Audio – Walking Footsteps

First you have to consider:

– if character is grounded
– different audio clips depending of movement direction
– random pitch (velocità di riproduzione)
– random audio clips
– trigger zones for different ground surfaces
– trigger zones for different environments

1. In my oipinion the best practice is using an AnimationEvents to synch the Animation and the SFX (http://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/animeditor-AnimationEvents.html)

AnimationEvents -> will calls -> FootstepSfxScript.cs

2. Script some conditions:

using UnityEngine; 
using System.Collections;

	float audioStepLengthWalk = 0.45f; 
	float audioStepLengthRun = 0.25f;

For italian people: come funziona?

1. Ottengo il Character Controller

public CharacterController controller; 

2. Inserisco in un array le clip sonore

public AudioClip[] wood ; 

3. Definisco la lunghezza delle clip

float audioStepLengthWalk = 0.45f; 
float audioStepLengthRun = 0.25f;

4. Verifico delle condizioni:

} else if (controller.isGrounded && controller.velocity.magnitude < 7 && controller.velocity.magnitude > 5 && hit.gameObject.tag == "Wood" && step == true) {
			WalkOnWood();
} else if (controller.isGrounded && controller.velocity.magnitude > 8 && hit.gameObject.tag == "Wood" && step == true) {			RunOnWood();

– controller.isGrounded -> controllo che il controller sia a terra
– controller.velocity.magnitude < 7 -> la velocità del controller sul piano xz, se bassa stà camminando, se più alta sta correndo
– hit.gameObject.tag == “Wood” -> il tipo di terreno che il controller sta toccando
– step == true -> la variabile step è vera

5. Richiama la funziona specifica

void WalkOnWood() {

audio.clip = wood[Random.Range(0, wood.Length)]; // seleziona casualmente l'audio prelevandolo dall'array
audio.volume = 0.1f; // da un volume, basso possibilmente
audio.Play(); // play l'audio
StartCoroutine(WaitForFootSteps(audioStepLengthWalk));// avvia Couroutine per evitare la riproduzione continua
}

6. La Coroutine per riprodurre il suono

IEnumerator WaitForFootSteps(float stepsLength) { step = false; yield return new WaitForSeconds(stepsLength); step = true; } 

– WaitForFootSteps(float stepsLength) -> riceve la lunghezza della clip
– step = false -> interrompe la condizione -> if (controller.isGrounded … && step == true)
– yield return new WaitForSeconds(stepsLength) -> attende fino alla fine della riproduzione del suono
– step = true; -> fa ripartire la condizione if

Unity3D – Play a sound in sync with a countdown

Create a scene with:

– Main Camera

– Cube, attach the script:

#pragma strict

// AudioCountDown() variables START ################################################################
var pinPulled : boolean = false;
var fuse : float = 8.5; // the grenade explodes x seconds after the pin is pulled
var fuseTimer : float = 0;
var grenadeBeep : AudioClip;
var slowInterval : float = 1.0; // slow speed SFX
var fastInterval : float = 0.2; // fast speed SFX for last seconds
private var nextTime : float = -1; // declare this variable outside any function so every function can acces 
// AudioCountDown() variables END ##################################################################

function Start () {
} // END Start

function Update () {
		AudioCountDown();// call the audio for the CountDown	
}// END Update

function OnMouseDown ()
{
        // When you click over the object
        pinPulled = true; // the grenade pin will be pulled
        Debug.Log('Pin Pulled!');
}// END OnMouseDown()

function AudioCountDown(){
	// Audio CountDown START ##################################################################
	//If a grenade's pin has been pulled, start the countdown
	if (pinPulled) {
	   fuseTimer -= Time.deltaTime;
	}
	else { // pin in place: reset fuseTimer and nextTime
	   fuseTimer = fuse;
	   nextTime = fuseTimer - slowInterval; // set time for 1st tick
	}
	 
	if (fuseTimer <= nextTime) { // it's time to tick:
	   if (fuseTimer < 3.0){ // if entered fast range (last second), use fast interval
	       nextTime -= fastInterval;
	   } else { // otherwise beep at slow interval
	       nextTime -= slowInterval;
	   }
	   audio.clip = grenadeBeep;
	   audio.Play(); // call Play only once
	}
	// Audio CountDown END  ####################################################################
}// END AudioCountDown()

Inspector> DRAG AND DROP the Bomb-Detonator SFX over var grenadeBeep

Play, click over the cube to start the SFX CountDown

For italian people: come funziona?
1. la variabile pinPulled viene settata true, corrisponde al togliere la sicura alla granata

2. fuseTimer è il conto alla rovescia che si attiva se pinPulled è true infatti:

//If a grenade's pin has been pulled, start the countdown
	if (pinPulled) {
	   fuseTimer -= Time.deltaTime;
	}
	else { // pin in place: reset fuseTimer and nextTime
	   fuseTimer = fuse;
	   nextTime = fuseTimer - slowInterval; // set time for 1st tick

3. fuseTimer una volta attivato viene scalato di 1 secondo alla volta

fuseTimer -= Time.deltaTime;

4. se è passato almeno un secondo…

if (fuseTimer <= nextTime)

5. avvia l’effetto sonoro

           audio.clip = grenadeBeep;
	   audio.Play(); // call Play only once

6. se il countdown è agli ultimi 3 secondi il suono sarà emesso più velocemente

if (fuseTimer <= nextTime) { // it's time to tick:
	   if (fuseTimer < 3.0){ // if entered fast range (last second), use fast interval
	       nextTime -= fastInterval;

For italian people: come funziona?

1. if (Input.GetAxis(“Horizontal”) && step) -> se premo i tasti dello spostamento e la variabile step è TRUE
2. viene avviata la funzione Walk();
3. Walk():
– seleziona dall’array una clip random, ce ne servono almeno 4 o il suono risulterà noioso
– setta il volume -> audio.volume = 1.0f;
– avvia l’audio -> audio.Play();
– avvia WaitForFootStepsCoroutine(), inviando audioStepLengthWalk
4. WaitForFootStepsCoroutine():
– audioStepLengthWalk = stepsLength
– step = FALSE per evitare che -> if (Input.GetAxis(“Horizontal”) provochi la riproduzione della clip sonora ad ogni frame
– yield WaitForSeconds(stepsLength); -> mantiene step = FALSE per i secondi di stepsLength -> poi step = TRUE
5. con step = TRUE -> riparte if (Input.GetAxis(“Horizontal”) && step) per avviare una nuova clip audio
