Hi guys, I would like to play simple sounds but I want something easy to use, can you show me the simplest way to do that? Like a function that just loads a .wav and plays it.

If you are on Windows, the OS has a nice function for little ones:

Hi, thanks for the reply.
import std.stdio, core.sys.windows.mmsystem;

void main()
{
	PlaySound("shoot.wav", null, SND_FILENAME);
}
When I compile the code above the compiler says Error: linker exited with status 1
What should I do?

It might have to be "shoot.wav"w, notice the w on the end.

But I am guessing the main problem is not linking in the winmm lib and dll. It will probably work to add

pragma(lib, "winmm");

to your file right after the import.

You were right :) No need for the w but it was necessary the pragma(lib, "winmm");

It worked! Thanks so much man, all the best to you.
