[AS]
x.attachSound(“yoursound”);
x.start(0,999) // 999 is where you define your loop
[/AS]

I meant just like normal looping though…without AS…unless AS is the only way…I’m pretty sure there’s another way!

that’s where I thought they were…but I don’t see them…I just see info about the frame I’m in and all that Fade in, out custom editing sound info…no Looping options though…
