[Scripting Question] Pause BGM in pause menu?

[TheNocturno]

All I want is that the background music is paused when I enter the pause menu. (Pressing ESC I mean, you know xD). I would like that when you leave the menu music continues where it was paused too.

I have tried many things but none worked. I tried pbBGMFade for example, but nooope.

Someone help me?

Bumping thread, I found this but it didnt work for me: https://www.pokecommunity.com/archive/index.php/t-340697.html

In your menu script, you have to add this (when you enter in pause menu):

@playingBGM=$game_system.getPlayingBGM
$game_system.bgm_pause

Finally, you have to add this when you close your menu:

$game_system.bgm_resume(@playingBGM)

$game_system.bgm_resume(@playingBGM)

Thanks bro, where should I put that? Im using shiney script, I tried to put your code in ''starting the scene'' and ''closing the scene'' section but nothing happens.

Here is my ''virgin'' pause menu script: (I know

Spoiler:

will break the code)

[The Master]

You can put the first part of code after this line:

@viewport=Viewport.new(0,0,Graphics.width,Graphics.height)

The second one after these lines:

pbDisposeSpriteHash(@sprites)
@viewport.dispose

 

[TheNocturno]

It does not work, thanks anyway

I made a double check of my code and i didn't found anything wrong. Anyways, i discovered a malfunctioning in "bgm_pause" function and this is the cause of your problem (MIDI files too). We need to report it to Maruno.
