HA! We've found a bug!!!

[Pelleyoo]

This is a bug. For real. If you want to test it yerself, do this:

1. Start a new director project
2.import a song
3. import a w3d file
4. give it a script like this:

"On beginsprite me

sound(2).play(member("song"))

member("w3d").camera[1].fieldofview = 34.5

end

so far so good.

Now, replace the song you've imported with a new one. Give it the same name as
the first one. Open the script again for the W3d file and change something,
like the volume exemple;

"song(2).volume = 50" etc.

Not, director will say something like:

*"member("w3d").camera[1].fieldofview = 34?.5 number expected!"

It appears that it can't handle decimals after this is done...
:( WHAT THE Fk is happening? Our project is kinda ruined...daaamn

Does it help to put the sound portions of the script into a different
script? You can attach multiple scripts to a single sprite. Make one
of them deal with the audio and the other one deal with the field of
view and whatever else is going on.

Also, there are quite a few ways to play sounds, try some different
ones, like puppetSound, or using the sound channels instead of lingo to
play them.

I'm going way out on a limb here...

I remember in a previous post you said you were from Sweden. I've had a
handful of float number problems with users specifically from Sweden. I have no
idea why, I just thought it was my company's computer setup.

Do a search in the lingo forum for Sweden, and you'll find a post of mine from
December 2004. Tell me if that looks similar to your issue...
