Audio Sprites

[enriqueto]

For the game I'm currently doing we need to use around 30 effects. That's a big number of files to download.

 

Do you recommend  audio sprites? If yes which tool should we use to generate them?

This recent video on audio sprites might already be out of date, but it's still worth watching:

I use this tool: https://github.com/tonistiigi/audiosprite.

I use the tool eguneys mentions as well and then some simple code to add the markers. The sfxjson is the file generated by the tool. 

this.sfx = this.game.add.audio('sfx');this.sfxjson = this.game.cache.getJSON('sfxjson');var asm = this.sfxjson["spritemap"];for (var key in asm) {  if (asm.hasOwnProperty(key)) {    this.sfx.addMarker(key, asm[key]["start"], asm[key]["end"] - asm[key]["start"]);  }}

After that just do:

this.sfx.play('somemarker');

@CtrlAltDel, Yes I use a very similar code, but I have to call this in every state, do you call it in every state too, and track this.sfx everywhere you go?

[CtlAltDel]

I only call it in my main state, but that's because I currently only have one state that uses sound.

thanks for the advice!
