Help with Music Looping
Hi, I'm making a game on scratch but I'm having some difficulties.
I use Audacity to edit the music I have, and I edited a theme to loop on the title screen. In Audacity, it loops perfectly. But in Scratch, there's a very small delay at the end of each loop and it doesn't sound like a loop anymore because you can tell when the loop ends. Is there a way to fix this?
Here's what I have:

Use the cut tool.
"The “edit” menu contains tools to edit the sound. It has: undo, redo; cut, copy, paste; delete, select all. Undo will undo the most recent action; redo will redo it if it was undone. Cut, copy, and paste work with Scratch's own sound clipboard; it does not copy to the system's clipboard, nor can it paste in external sounds. Delete deletes the selected sound fragment. Select all selects the entire soundtrack. Individual sections can be selected by dragging the mouse over them. " ~Scratch Wiki

If it is not that, scratch 2.0 is known to not be great about sounds.

To actually stop the music ends you could do:
What it does is it plays the music but when the game_end var. = end, it stops the msuci.

Thank you, I tried this before, I guess I didn't minus the seconds waited enough.

The question that bootsowen asked for was already answered, so I will just ask a Scratch Team member to close it. If you (bootsowen) wants to unclose it, report this topic.
