Guys, I can't figure out how to autoplay mp3's.
A lot of creators use mp3 but if I replace the sound with something else I can play it with the test button but it won't play automaticly when I restart the scene.
 
Did you find the trigger that plays the original sound and replace it from there?

It might be in an obscure place. For example, in the scene Haley & Tess - Heads Will Roll, the audio trigger for that song is on an animation for the Timeline plugin of a hidden atom called "YYY/MainTimeline". So, in that instance to locate the atom you'd need "Show Hidden" turned on, then check its plugins tab for Timeline, find the animation where audio plays, and then under Targets tab find the keyframe with the trigger for the Audio track.

If it's an older scene or just simply one that doesn't use Timeline, it could be a trigger under "Scene Animation". As an example, in another older
ascorad scene called Haley - Armageddon, you can find it as the third trigger from the top labelled "BGM Start".

It all depends on the creator though really. Other places for triggers might be stuff like a "play" button or an atom that's using a plugin like MacGruber's Relay.
 
Of course, the trigger is broken when you change the audio.

Thanks guys, I'm gonna try things out and maybe I can make my own trigger.
