One Sprite Always On.

Post by DjOttomatic »

Is there a way to keep one sprite so that its always on? I can click on the box in the preferences, minimize the frequency, and increase the duration, but it seems the longest it will stay on is about 1 minute.

Go into the soundspectrum folder in program files and look for the one named sprites. Go in and find the sprite you want and then remove all the other sprites.

You can put the ones you don want in another folder and move it to somewhere G-force cannot see it and then the one you kept will be the only sprite.

You can also create a Custom Theme, with a Sprite Category that just has the Sprites that you want in it. Then you can switch back and forth easily and quickly.

Hello DjOttomatic

I do not believe either of the two above posts will allow you to do what you want: "Is there a way to keep one sprite so that its always on?".

You would need to create a script to achieve this which is beyond my capabilities. Try reading some info here:-

BTT is Correct.

you should be able to add these lines to Startup.txt:
(...'cause 'boot.txt' no longer exists)

Code: Select all

SetSlideshowEnabled( "Sprite", false );
StartSprite( "Aurora", 60*60*24 );
( ... I just randomly chose "Aurora" & 60*60*24 seconds ... close enough to forever :roll: )

You could also implement as a script I suppose.

Hello jerohm

Many thanks for your help. I was hoping you would come up with some code.
