You could simply copy the sounds, then make them louder in a sound editor, or turn down the music.

Use timers.

Sounds simple enough, I just need to know what exactly goes into the three fields in the "AddTimer(string& asName, float afTime, string& asFunction);" string. Obviously the time goes into the middle field, but what name would I put in the first field, and what do I put in the last one? Thanks for your help!

EDIT: Oh, and would the time be in seconds? So if I put in 2 it'd play for 2 seconds?

EDIT2: It looks like I also don't know where I am to be putting the AddTimer function, under the "void CollideWalkSoundTrigger1(string &in asParent, string &in asChild, int alState)"?

Sorry for my great lack of knowledge , but is this how I should have it look then?

    void CollideWalkSoundTrigger1(string &in asParent, string &in asChild, int alState)

    {
        AddTimer("", delay * i, "TimerPlayTheSound");
    }
}

void TimerPlayTheSound(string &in asTimer)
{
    PlaySoundAtEntity("", "scare_wood_creak_walk.snt", "Player", 3, false);
}

Yes, but isn't 3 a little too long? You do know that's the fade-in time, right?

Oh is it? I thought it may be fade-out time, guess I never paid attention, lol. What is a more suitable time to set it to?
