Declare a SAMPLE* called, say... sound. SAMPLE* sound; Rewrite this part to say: sound = load_sample(SND1); > play_sample(SND1 *, 255, 128, 1000, 0); No. SND1 is actually "test.wav". You want to play the sample that you loaded. You want... play_sample(sound, 255, 128, 1000, 0); > stop_sample(SND1 *); Now, if you stop playing the sound immediately after starting, you'll be lucky if you hear so much as a pop. I haven't used Allegro sound much, but I remember that if I wanted to know when a sound stopped I had to use the voice functions. > fade_out(3); > destroy_bitmap(allegro); Also, destroy_sample(sound); should go here. > return 0; > } > > can someone please tell me what is wrong? i want to get the sound to play at > the end of the program after a key is pressed. everything else works great Maybe you should move this to the Allegro list.
