AudioSource in Unity3D does not play WAV file - c#

I am updating an AudioSource in Unity3D during runtime when I click.
I created a Cube game object.
When I click the cube I send properties to my AudioSource.
NOTE: this is to eventually play many other wav files that are passed in via a string array of pipe delimited wav files (which exist in the Assets Audio folder).
So I need to update the AudioSource with each CLICK EVENT whereby each time it will load a new file selected from the array.
Okay, the Unity3D Editor shows my public variables from the script, and it fills them out at runtime (upon clicking the cube.)
My path variable shows up perfectly in the Unity3D editor.
But the problem is although the Audio Clip property in the editor shows the small orange audio logo (as if something is there/loaded), the name of the file that I grabbed from my Assets/Audio folder is always empty.
Nothing plays, but I get no errors!
And the properties playOnAwake, volume, etc. all show me exactly what I express them to do via my script.
NOTE: In the first image, the path variable correctly points to the .wav file.
Why is my .wav not playing?
Why is the .wav filename not appearing in the Audio Clip text box area?
public Color clickColor;
public Color releaseColor;
public int clickcount = 0;
public WWW www;
public AudioClip myAudioClip;
public string path;
void CubeClicked(GameObject tmpGameObject)
{
// CLICK COUNT
clickcount++;
// CLICK COLOR
tmpGameObject.GetComponent<Renderer>().materials[0].color = clickColor;
// IS TRIGGER
tmpGameObject.GetComponent<Collider>().isTrigger = true;
//AUDIO
path = "file://" + Application.dataPath.Substring(0, Application.dataPath.LastIndexOf("/")) + "/Assets/Audio/JetEngine.wav";
www = new WWW(path);
myAudioClip = www.audioClip;
tmpGameObject.GetComponent<AudioSource>().clip = myAudioClip;
tmpGameObject.GetComponent<AudioSource>().playOnAwake = false;
tmpGameObject.GetComponent<AudioSource>().volume = 0.999f;
tmpGameObject.GetComponent<AudioSource>().Play();
}

Cabbra's suggestion was what I needed. Adding "yield return www;" forced me to use the IEnumerator and magically, it started to work!
StartCoroutine(playMusic(tmpGameObject));
public IEnumerator playMusic(GameObject tmpGameObject){
/*Same code from before goes here!*/
}

Editing a list of strings through custom inspector is not working

I'm making a voice line + subtitle system, using a custom inspector to make it easier to use.
All is working perfectly until i tried to show a subtitle EditorGUILayout.TextField similar to how I am using EditorGUILayout.ObjectField for the voice audio clips.
This works (No subtitle functions):
showAudioClipList = EditorGUILayout.BeginFoldoutHeaderGroup(showAudioClipList, new GUIContent("Audio Clips", "Audio clips available to play when interacting with this object."));
if (showAudioClipList)
{
GUILayout.BeginVertical("box");
for (int i = 0; i < _AudioClips.arraySize; i++)
{
SerializedProperty AC_ref = _AudioClips.GetArrayElementAtIndex(i);
EditorGUILayout.BeginHorizontal("box");
AC_ref.objectReferenceValue = EditorGUILayout.ObjectField("Clip " + (i + 1) + ":", AC_ref.objectReferenceValue, typeof(AudioClip), false);
if (GUILayout.Button(new GUIContent("X", "Remove this clip"), GUILayout.MaxWidth(20)))
t.AudioClips.RemoveAt(i);
EditorGUILayout.EndHorizontal();
}
EditorGUILayout.Space();
EditorGUILayout.BeginHorizontal();
if (GUILayout.Button(new GUIContent("Add Clip", "Add new clip entry")))
t.AudioClips.Add(null);
if (GUILayout.Button(new GUIContent("Remove All Clips", "Remove all clip entries")))
t.AudioClips.Clear();
EditorGUILayout.EndHorizontal();
GUILayout.EndVertical();
}
EditorGUILayout.EndFoldoutHeaderGroup();
I want to make it show a text field underneath each audioclip box so I can write in subtitles for each voice line. I got it working for a non-list string, but cant get it working for a list of strings in the same way that the list of AudioClips works.
I've tried
t.Subtitles[i] = EditorGUILayout.TextField(etc...
and
ST_ref.stringValue = EditorGUILayout.TextField(etc... trying to replicate how the audioclip one works, plus some others, but all cause errors in console and collapse the inspector.
Can you understand my problem from just this code?
Solved it.
I'm using
SerializedProperty SC_ref = _Subtitles.GetArrayElementAtIndex(i);
(goes under the SerializedProperty AC_ref = _AudioClips.GetArrayElementAtIndex(i);)in the same way as the audio clips, and
EditorGUILayout.PropertyField(SC_ref);
(goes at the bottom of the FOR loop inside, in its own BeginHorizontal("box")) to show, set, and save each string value as each is displayed under its corresponding AudioClip object. EditorGUILayout.PropertyField saves changes at the same time as showing the variable in inspector, so it only needs that short code line to work.
_Subtitles is a SerializedProperty of a List, and by using GetArrayElementAtIndex() I can specify a specific entry in the list to modify by temporarily saving it as its own SerializedProperty.

Unable to change sprite in script [duplicate]

I have am developing a HoloLens project that needs to reference .txt files. I have the files stored in Unity's 'Resources' folder and have them working perfectly fine (when run via Unity):
string basePath = Application.dataPath;
string metadataPath = String.Format(#"\Resources\...\metadata.txt", list);
// If metadata exists, set title and introduction strings.
if (File.Exists(basePath + metadataPath))
{
using (StreamReader sr = new StreamReader(new FileStream(basePath + metadataPath, FileMode.Open)))
{
...
}
}
However, when building the program for HoloLens deployment, I am able to run the code but it doesn't work. None of the resources show up and when examining the HoloLens Visual Studio solution (created by selecting build in Unity), I don't even see a resources or assets folder. I am wondering if I am doing something wrong or if there was a special way to deal with such resources.
Also with image and sound files...
foreach (string str in im)
{
spriteList.Add(Resources.Load<Sprite>(str));
}
The string 'str' is valid; it works absolutely fine with Unity. However, again, it's not loading anything when running through the HoloLens.
You can't read the Resources directory with the StreamReader or the File class. You must use Resources.Load.
1.The path is relative to any Resources folder inside the Assets folder of your project.
2.Do not include the file extension names such as .txt, .png, .mp3 in the path parameter.
3.Use forward slashes instead of back slashes when you have another folder inside the Resources folder. backslashes won't work.
Text files:
TextAsset txtAsset = (TextAsset)Resources.Load("textfile", typeof(TextAsset));
string tileFile = txtAsset.text;
Supported TextAsset formats:
txt .html .htm .xml .bytes .json .csv .yaml .fnt
Sound files:
AudioClip audio = Resources.Load("soundFile", typeof(AudioClip)) as AudioClip;
Image files:
Texture2D texture = Resources.Load("textureFile", typeof(Texture2D)) as Texture2D;
Sprites - Single:
Image with Texture Type set to Sprite (2D and UI) and
Image with Sprite Mode set to Single.
Sprite sprite = Resources.Load("spriteFile", typeof(Sprite)) as Sprite;
Sprites - Multiple:
Image with Texture Type set to Sprite (2D and UI) and
Image with Sprite Mode set to Multiple.
Sprite[] sprite = Resources.LoadAll<Sprite>("spriteFile") as Sprite[];
Video files (Unity >= 5.6):
VideoClip video = Resources.Load("videoFile", typeof(VideoClip)) as VideoClip;
GameObject Prefab:
GameObject prefab = Resources.Load("shipPrefab", typeof(GameObject)) as GameObject;
3D Mesh (such as FBX files)
Mesh model = Resources.Load("yourModelFileName", typeof(Mesh)) as Mesh;
3D Mesh (from GameObject Prefab)
MeshFilter modelFromGameObject = Resources.Load("yourGameObject", typeof(MeshFilter)) as MeshFilter;
Mesh loadedMesh = modelFromGameObject.sharedMesh; //Or design.mesh
3D Model (as GameObject)
GameObject loadedObj = Resources.Load("yourGameObject") as GameObject;
//MeshFilter meshFilter = loadedObj.GetComponent<MeshFilter>();
//Mesh loadedMesh = meshFilter.sharedMesh;
GameObject object1 = Instantiate(loadedObj) as GameObject;
Accessing files in a sub-folder:
For example, if you have a shoot.mp3 file which is in a sub-folder called "Sound" that is placed in the Resources folder, you use the forward slash:
AudioClip audio = Resources.Load("Sound/shoot", typeof(AudioClip)) as AudioClip;
Asynchronous Loading:
IEnumerator loadFromResourcesFolder()
{
//Request data to be loaded
ResourceRequest loadAsync = Resources.LoadAsync("shipPrefab", typeof(GameObject));
//Wait till we are done loading
while (!loadAsync.isDone)
{
Debug.Log("Load Progress: " + loadAsync.progress);
yield return null;
}
//Get the loaded data
GameObject prefab = loadAsync.asset as GameObject;
}
To use: StartCoroutine(loadFromResourcesFolder());
If you want to load text file from resource please do not specify file extension
just simply follow the below given code
private void Start()
{
TextAsset t = Resources.Load<TextAsset>("textFileName");
List<string> lines = new List<string>(t.text.Split('\n'));
foreach (string line in lines)
{
Debug.Log(line);
}
}
debug.Log can print all the data that are available in text file
You can try to store your text files in streamingsasset folder. It works fine in my project
