My music won’t play in this particular scene. I’m not sure what I’m doing wrong.

And your music choice is terrible. Turn it off.

Just make sure you present a better routine next time.

the 0000 shouldnt it be something like 1000?
Also if you muted the music in previouse scene check the time is not too long .if its too long it might get conflicted with new volume command because it will in same time try to put the music to 0 and to 50

then you should put 1000 instead of 0.

there can be 0 so the music will not fade in but start right away…

The problem is volume music 50 0000. Try making it volume music 50 0

Yeaa, but she wants the music to play at that part, so it shouldn’t be 0.
Oh wait, you can. But I don’t know her previous script. So I assume she muted previously?

50 0 means the music will play instantly on 50% volume

50 1000 mens it will from what ever the volume was before change to 50% in 1 second

So yes she can have the 50 0 and the music will play.
