Interactive Audio Variation / Transition auditioning?

I've made a simple XACT project containing one cue that has 4 variations. I set up transition parameters, and was hoping to audition the transitions in action. I can connect to the audio console app and get events to play, but I don't see any variable slider to control which variation is playing.

Actually, I'm not even sure if I set up the cue correctly for this. My second question would be: are there any example XACT projects that feature interactive music transitioning

Thanks!

Interactive Audio Variation / Transition auditioning?

  • Beauzak

    I have a problem getting this to work. Here is what I do.

    Create wavebank->soundbank->cue
    Add another soundbank to cue by drag&drop
    Cueprop: isinteractive=true
    Select variable for cue
    Set variable ranges for each soundbank
    ex:
    variablerange: -180 to 180
    soundbank 1 : -180 to 0
    soundbank 2 : 1 to 180
    Set flags for transition behaviour (I use default)
    Use variable slider to audition transitions

    This should be the way to do it, but doesn’t work. Can anyone help
    The best way to help would be to post/upload a project where transitioning works, preferably a project with music-transitioning.

    Regards Mikkel

    How I am looking to do the exact same thing

    I want to set it up to act as a switch container where when I tell the cue to switch sounds, it follows the transition rules and switches to a different music track.

    Never mind - I figured out how to set up the variable to control this properly.

    Thanks!
