custom sounds as references?

[iantriestrading]

Can I manually add custom sounds in the Additional References text file, and have them automatically installed to the main NT install at Program Files/NinjaTrader/sounds/custom folder?

Hello iantriestrading,

Unfortunately, not as a reference and not to the Program Files directory.

You can add a folder named templates to the export.zip and place the sound file in this (or a subdirectory such as Sounds) and this will import into the templates directory when the script is imported.

Below is a link to the help guide.

Oh cool! Thank you!

Is there any way to let multiple sounds play at the same time or is the audio engine only supporting one at a time (i.e. if sound1.wav stops playing when sound2 starts playing)?

Hello iantriestrading,

From my understanding only one sound can play at a time.
