Handling Music and Sound Effects In Your Games

By
Initiative  While developing Treva's Adventure I had to figure out a way to handle multiple music tracks and sound effects in a clean manner or suffer horribly.  What was going to help me achieve a simple solution was taking all the different sounds and centralizing them in a single class in order to black box them.   Any other code trying to play a sound wouldn't even know the sound file's name.   All code trying to play a music track would reference a enum that defines all the track names. Defining The Class Creating The Enum When I first started defining types in my enumeration,  I was naming the types to be exactly like the file name.  For a scary sound effect I had found a file named "ghost breath".  So around my code would be scattered lines like SoundManager.Play(SoundEffectType.GhostBreath);  This was fine until I found a sound that better fit the situation it was being used in,  and decided to use "ghost breath" for a...

Don't Destroy On Load..

When you download the file, you'll need to extract the file if its in  a .zip The text file should have the extension .ttf. If you text files have a FFIL extension, simply rename the font file (yourname.ttf). Drag the text file into unity to import. By default the Character variable should be labeled Dynamic . The Dynamic setting means  that Unity won't pre-generate the texture, so if you look at your material containing your font, It probably will be blank. (read more here) Now your over all objective should be getting your font to look like this (unless you prefer dynamic): Where the characters of the font are not jumbled up and visible. Now usually all you have to do to achieve this is change the  Character  variable fr...
