Hi guys! I have a tutorial on how to add a Volume Slider! Do check it out if you would like to add a Volume Slider instead of an On/Off Sound Button! czcams.com/video/yWCHaTwVblk/video.html

[@losantosw]

Thank you very much, I was already wondering where I would find another video where I would put in addition to the audio on and off options, a volume adjustment. Now I'll go to the next video to learn the other part lol

@Hooson how would you add pressedState for the mute buttons with this solution you showed us in the video (changing sprites)? You know, to indicate to the users that the button was pressed (e.g. changing the sprite's color to indicate that).
Right now utilizing your method I am unable to find a solution on how to do apply a pressed effect to the mute/unmute button. Any suggestions? Thanks 🙂

thx bro!

[@losantosw]

Hi @Hooson,
I replicated this code to make something to turn sounds and effects on and off. The problem is that in the effects, where I set another audio, when I click the button it plays the audio sound again. I don't understand why this behavior, since they are two different scripts. Can you help me?

[@enjoylearning8585]

best one

[@UpcomingChris]

The PlayerPrefs part of this isn't working like I'd expect, if I close the game, change scene or something, the music will always start on regardless if I turned it off or not and I don't know why, is there something I'm missing?, code is identical, isn't it mean to be persistently saved?

[@PixluxGames]

Thanks

[@neowb8495]

I have a problem, when I changed scenes the icon goes back to OnMusic, but last time i left it, it is on OffMusic icon

[@saswatamohanta1023]

how would i do it to turn off only music and not sound effects? Pausing the audio listener turns off all the sounds

[@benjib20]

yo im having an issue where the on and off are on the screen at the same time. what do i do?

[@shivaprasadkm5423]

Hello i got problem that is, whenever the game starts the sound off button is enabled its not saving as set in last game,i got same issue in slider also (as u pinned in comment video).any suggestions.

[@rizwanshaikh8175]

save system is working properly the only issue is when I go to option menu it restart the setting (when I set muted and go to option menu its unmuted)

[@FranyxD]

i want to in one scene in specify dont play that music
how can i do it?

[@weejunjie93]

I know this a long time vid, but just to ask why at the unity On Click Part, I cant add Function to it

[@miguelespeso401]

Congratulations
It's an amazing video.
I managed to do what I was looking for to see your video.
I would be very grateful if you activated the subtitles in Spanish to fully understand your logic, I like how you explain your video, but I don't fully understand it.

[@shahpranay1236]

what is the getkeydown replacement for android can u help please?

[@nguyentrunghieu6865]

I like video

[@xcade2652]

Hi the buttons weren't showing up is there a reason to it why isnt it showing when i hit play?

[@CurtisJensenGames]

Tip for anyone wanting to mute all sound effects: write a script for the audio listener, not the audio source

[@talismanskulls2857]

I like the concept but i am using sliders to adjust audio source. how do i mute those/

[@vladimirvetchinnikov6916]

Please, help me. What should I write here?
UpdateButtonIcon();
AudioListener.pause = muted;
if I use AudioMixer
public void MusicButtonOnOff()
{
if (mutedMusic == false)
{
mutedMusic = true;
Mixer.audioMixer.SetFloat("Music", -80);
}
else
{
mutedMusic = false;
Mixer.audioMixer.SetFloat("Music", 0);
}

[@F.Fifie.]

why mine didnt have music if i change to different scene? please helppp

[@rizwanshaikh8175]

after going back to sound button it restart and play the music

[@adsikaros9611]

but it also muted the sfx how to make it only stop the bgm

[@NeyNyxia]

why I have errors like, error CS0117: 'PlayerPrefs' does not contain a definition for 'Haskey' ??

[@hoosontech]

Can I take a look at your script? You can post the codes here

[@gomolemomelela6052]

k needs to be a capital letter, so it needs to be HasKey, not Haskey

[@yncor9756]

HasKey

[@texnofest]

Please make this for vibrate

[@sheejarajendran137]

Ok bro it's working but there is a problem for me, when I mute my music and go to another scene and come back again but the audio is playing, it's not saving
How to solve this

[@sheejarajendran137]

Please replay bro

[@mcpedab7442]

Ya I was having the same issue.
I had to do a bit of tweaking to the Sound Manager script but it now works.
Here's the code
using UnityEngine;
using UnityEngine.UI;
public class SoundManager : MonoBehaviour
{
[SerializeField]
GameObject soundonImage;
[SerializeField]
GameObject soundoffImage;
private bool muted = false;
void Start()
{
muted = PlayerPrefs.GetInt("muted") == 1;
if(muted == false)
{
soundonImage.SetActive(true);
soundoffImage.SetActive(false);
}
else
{
soundonImage.SetActive(false);
soundoffImage.SetActive(true);
}
if (PlayerPrefs.HasKey("muted"))
{
Load();
}
else
{
PlayerPrefs.SetInt("muted",1);
Save();
}
AudioListener.pause = muted;
}
private void UpdateButtonIcon()
{
if(muted == false)
{
soundonImage.SetActive(true);
soundoffImage.SetActive(false);
}
else
{
soundonImage.SetActive(false);
soundoffImage.SetActive(true);
}
}
public void OnButtonPress()
{
if (muted == false)
{
muted = true;
AudioListener.pause = true;
}
else
{
muted = false;
AudioListener.pause = false;
}
UpdateButtonIcon();
Save();
}
private void Load()
{
muted = PlayerPrefs.GetInt("muted") == 1;
}
private void Save()
{
PlayerPrefs.SetInt("muted", muted ? 1 : 0);
}
}
Just copy paste the script and reassign the values and it should work like a charm.

make your bgm script static and use dontdestroyonload() method, thats all

[@AYANKHAN-eh6ve]

just add this to your very first scene, and the music will play all along until we exit the game.

There is a slight typo error in line 16. It should be "PlayerPrefs.SetInt("muted", 0);". You're missing a letter "s" in your PlayerPref
