I made a function that makes music fade out in my game. The function decreases the volume by 1 on every third frame until the volume reaches 0. I ran the game and the music started fading for about a second and then it just cut off. I tried to debug my code but realised that my code was okay. The issue is that when the music volume is 1, the music is still quite loud. And at volume 0 it is muted. The music should be playing at 1% volume if the volume is set to 1 according to the documentation. But it sounds more like it's playing at 50%. Any idea how to make this work?

I think the music / sound volume setting is logarithmic.
Since it only accepts integer "percents" this indeed causes problems.

This is a DGDK problem since ever. I don't know if DBPro has the same issue.
A member of this board made a music mp3 library that included fade in/out, but I never tried it. It must be somewhere in the forum...
