<h3><span class="mw-headline">Music</span></h3>
<p>To play background music (which loops until you stop it), you use the <a href="../reference/The_Ren%27Py_Language#play" title="renpy/doc/reference/The Ren'Py Language">play statement</a>:</p>
<pre>
play music <span class="str">"ominous.ogg"</span>
</pre>
<p>To use fade-in or fade-out (in seconds):</p>
<pre>
play music <span class="str">"ominous.ogg"</span> fadein <span class="num">2</span> fadeout <span class="num">2</span>
</pre>
<p>To stop the background music, you use <a href="../reference/The_Ren%27Py_Language#stop" title="renpy/doc/reference/The Ren'Py Language">stop statement</a>:</p>
<pre>
stop music
</pre>
<p><a id="Sound_Effects" name="Sound_Effects"></a></p>
<h3><span class="mw-headline">Sound Effects</span></h3>
<p>To play a sound effect, use the <a href="../reference/The_Ren%27Py_Language#play" title="renpy/doc/reference/The Ren'Py Language">play statement</a>:</p>
<pre>
play sound <span class="str">"bang.ogg"</span>
</pre>
<p>There's a Ren'Py function to stop sound, but there's usually no reason to use it.</p>
<p><a id="Voices_.28Voice_Acting.29" name="Voices_.28Voice_Acting.29"></a></p>
<h3><span class="mw-headline">Voices (Voice Acting)</span></h3>
<p>If you want to add voice acting to your visual novel, you'll need to put each screen of dialog into a separate file, and name them in a way that you can figure out which line of dialog they go with. Then, before each line of dialog, put a <a href="../reference/The_Ren%27Py_Language#voice" title="renpy/doc/reference/The Ren'Py Language">voice statement</a>:</p>
<pre>
voice <span class="str">"bob203.ogg"</span>
bob <span class="str">"I love ice cream."</span>
voice <span class="str">"nancy218.ogg"</span>
nancy <span class="str">"I love ice cream too."</span>
voice <span class="str">"bob204.ogg"</span>
bob <span class="str">"I also like cookies."</span>
</pre>
