llLoopSound(); Is not looping

[Donny Pepos]

llLoopSound("ID",1.0); //does not function as intended, and plays sound only once as if it was llPlaySound("ID",1.0);

Is this a well known bug?

This issue seems to be a reversal issue, llPlaySound is looping, while llLoopSound is Playing only once.

Hi Donny,

There are several known bugs with how these functions are implemented in the current version of OpenSim, see for example: http://opensimulator.org/mantis/view.php?id=7193

I don't see this problem. I have some complex scripts that depend on llPlaySound and llLoopSound.
My steam whistle uses llPlaySound to play the sound of the whistle starting up, then a second prim overlaps the end of that sound with the steady state sound of the whistle. I leave this running with llLoopSound as long as you hold the mouse down, and when you let go I have the first prim start the sound of the whistle shutting down with llPlaySound and stop the llLoopSound. If llPlaySound looped, this would be horribly messed up, but I just went to my store on Panthalassa and clicked on the demo horn and whistle, they work as I expect.
