Dynamic music system? Ideas on how I could do this?

[Subsonic_Noise]

So, I just came up with a system for my game that would totally make it much more intense.

Dynamic music.

So, the music of my game mainly consists of a mixture of ambient, industrial and breakbeat. On maps, the player mainly will hear ambient music, fitting the general mood of the game.
But here is the awesome part: when an enemy nears, the fitting breakbeat drums will become louder and louder and stop again when the player killed the enemy.
I think this would be really awesome and intense if realized in the right way, and that's where you come in: HOW THE FUCK WOULD I DO THIS?
I was thinking of making the ambient stuff the BGM and the drums the BGS, both starting at the same time, but the BGS volume being 0. Would this work and if it would, how could I link this to the distance between the player and the enemy? Would this need a script?
And, last but not least, would you even like this?

I made the DEE for a reason ya know

OOOOOOHH!!! I thought about your system, but I never came up with using it for this! THANKS!
I'll try it as soon as possible and then demo random people.
EDIT: What kind of mods would I have to do? Or could I just use it as it is?

[Ryex]

it would have to be modified to have the sources follow the events and then to go away when the monster was killed. and I would suggest using point sources, much less lag.
you would be better off using the dynamic sounds script as a code reference for a new script that uses the DEE.

but the DEE should definitely be used, I put a LOT of time in to making it work and nearly lagless.

I have no clue what you where talking about in the first part, so I guess I'll just have to try, lol.

[Ryex]

hold on, hold on.

I went back at the code in the DEE an I realized that I never made a Dynamic source. If I did then I could create this script for you in no time flat.
I'll get back to you on this

Thanks! ^^
You just got another level up and an coupon for one free musics.

ok I got this almost done I just need to figure out how to tell if a BABS enemy is dead so I can mute the source piece.

try this you will need the DEE

you configure it like this

module DEE
  
  def self.cfg_load
#=================================
# START CFG
#=================================
    #create an array for the sources on map 1
    source_array = []
    #create an array for the clients on map 1
    client_array = []
    #add the player to the client's array
    client_array[0] = DEE::Client.new($game_player)
#----------------
# Do not edit the above
#----------------

    #add three sources to the sources array
# source_array[index] = Dynamic_Sound_Source.new(event_id, radius, 'file', power)
#event_id = id of map event monster no leading 0's
#radius = distance in pixels that the the bgs is at full power (32 is one map square)
#'file' = name of sound file in the bgs folder no exstention needed
#power = distance beyond the radius to fade the bgs (32 is one map square) 
    source_array[0] = Dynamic_Sound_Source.new(1, 200, '003-Wind03', 400)
    #add new pieces to the third source (extra monsters with the same sound)
#source_array[index].pieces.push(Dynamic_Source_Piece.new(radius, event_id, power))
#radius = same as above
#event_id = same as above but for a different monster
#power = same as above
    source_array[0].pieces.push(Dynamic_Source_Piece.new(200, 4, 500))
    source_array[0].pieces.push(Dynamic_Source_Piece.new(200, 5, 500))
    source_array[0].pieces.push(Dynamic_Source_Piece.new(200, 13, 500))
    #create a hash
    map_sources = {}
    #add a sound source type under tha name 'sound'
    map_sources['sound'] = Sound_Source_Type.new
    #give our source type our sources array
    map_sources['sound'].sources = source_array
    #give our source type our client array
    map_sources['sound'].clients = client_array
    #load our hash into the DEE configuration under the map id 1
# DEE::MapSources[map_id] = hash of sources
    DEE::MapSources[1] = map_sources
    #tell the DEE that the CFG has been loaded

#repeate the above for every map (tedious I know) using DEE::MapSources[map_id]
    $dee_cfg_loaded = true
  end
  
end

hopefully you can figure that out.

[Ryex]

did this work for you? I'm curently making a system that would setup the sources through event comments to make it easier.

wow, that's awesome!
Couldn't test this so far, I was VERY busy the last week, lol.
I'll do as soon as possible though.

[Ryex]

well I just finished the event set up system soo... I'll be posting an official script look for it.

[Subsonic_Noise]

Sorry to bump this, but did you ever post the finshed version? I couldn't find it, and this one gives me a syntax error in line 123, which is "return false".
