+--- Thread: Does Buildism use the same Lua as ROBLOX? (/showthread.php?tid=6175)
RE: Does Buildism use the same Lua as ROBLOX? - Qwertygiy - 06-24-2011
That's because the site host stinks; Jacob_'s hoping to get some ads so that he can get a non-free web host.
And the main Wiki is at the top of the page, the Convert page is here, and the Object list is here.
Some quick notes: You can use links in your game to offsite textures and sounds, but MP3s won't work; and there are some textures uploaded in the Wiki.

Will MP3s eventually be an addition to the game?
Also, thanks for the links.
Seems pretty easy, just a few minor changes in it.

Jacob_'s said he doesn't want to deal with stolen music in the game, so I don't think so -- and if it does there'll probably be some "Buildism.net Only" restriction to it.
.WAVs, .MIDs, and .AIFFs are fine, and in the Scripting Forum I have a compiled list of sounds that work ingame, with a bunch of sound effects and MIDIs.

It's easy to convert an MP3 to WAV so I don't think blocking MP3 actually helps much...
RE: Does Buildism use the same Lua as ROBLOX? - Qwertygiy - 06-24-2011
I haven't come across a program that does that...
And .WAVs take up a lot more space -- anything 3 MB or larger will take too long to load reasonably.

Use .aiffs for music.

Giant file size is giant.

I have some .aiff songs taken from old Mac games; some of them are small but some of them from later games are over 6 MB. So I guess it depends on which program/settings you use.

Also, MIDI music works if you can find some that doesn't sound terrible.
RE: Does Buildism use the same Lua as ROBLOX? - Qwertygiy - 06-25-2011
Do you know any program that will convert MP3s to AIFFs, or (just because I'm good at stuff like this) a program that can write MIDIs?
RE: Does Buildism use the same Lua as ROBLOX? - Ming-Yan - 06-25-2011
Audacity can easily convert to MP3.
