Actions and Bangs

[kh2ff]

On this "health bar" hud, a sound is supposed to be played when the battery reaches a certain point.

the meter has the sound and if actions set up, but not for the sound to be played.
(To have the sound play on an if action)
here is the if action code:

Code: Select all

[mPercent]
Measure=Plugin
Plugin=PowerPlugin.dll
PowerState=PERCENT
MaxValue=100
MinValue=0
IfAboveValue=25
IfAboveAction=!Execute [!RainmeterShowMeter ImageBar][!RainmeterHideMeter ImageBarLow] [!RainmeterRedraw]
IfBelowValue=25
IfBelowAction=!Execute [!RainmeterShowMeter ImageBarLow][!RainmeterHideMeter ImageBar] [!RainmeterRedraw]
UpdateDivider=0

also I dont know what #filepath# actually entails

From the code, this is an older skin, but you can add the Play Sound Bang to this code.

If you know the complete path to the WAV file, just type it in the command:

Code: Select all

IfBelowAction=!Execute [Play "{completepathtofile\wavname.wav}"][!RainmeterShowMeter ImageBarLow][!RainmeterHideMeter ImageBar] [!RainmeterRedraw]

Replace {completepathtofile\wavname.wav} to match the location of your WAV file.
I put it in quotes to avoid problems if there are 'spaces' in the path.
If you put the WAV file in the same folder as this INI file, you would only need the WAV file name in the command.

Please don't put the curly braces in the option. I'm sure eclectic-tech put those there just to "indicate" that it is an example or something, but they are not needed or allowed in the actual option.

Examples:

!LeftMouseUpAction=[Play "C:\Some Path\SomeFile.wav"]

!LeftMouseUpAction=[Play "#CURRENTPATH#SomeFile.wav"]

!LeftMouseUpAction=[Play "#@#Sounds\SomeFile.wav"]

Oops! Should have been clearer... I'll pay closer attention.

Thanks JSM

Thanks eclectic-tech and jsmorley.
It works fine now, just had to add a [playstop] in the if above
