It’s been a nice whole day watching this thread.

It’s good to see that the majority of people agree that this is a horrible change and needs to be reverted, or at the very least be modified to be a lot less damaging to the audio library.

I at least hope that we get a reply to this. It would be a shame to let this thread, now sitting at ~1550 replies, be completely ignored because 4 people said it was a good change.

I think you have to make it available for everyone if you want to use it on your main. However, They said we will be unable to do that for temporarily so unless you wait to be able to do that, you have to reupload it on your main.

It’s usually former accelerators/people who have worked with Roblox that are the only ones that have positive thoughts about this update. Don’t be fooled, no one asked for it and no one appreciates it.

I was initially upset about having to go back to past projects to make these changes, but the free audio is actually really nice. I think it really does make developing a lot more easy to get into as most people I told about paying to upload sounds were pretty surprised that was even a thing.

Imagine if they add the upload limit to decals too.

Now imagine you’re uploading frames of a GIF such as a loading spinning circle animation.

You’d have to wait like 2 months to upload a third of the animation.

That’s my biggest fear honestly. I wouldn’t be surprised if our overwhelming feedback is ignored because of the 5 or so “yes-men” who are stupidly praising these changes.

It’s literally anarchy at this point with the memes and all, nice to see the well-deserved backlash. Fun to watch.

Reupload it if it ain’t copyrighted. Simple solution, really.

#1632

They can upload all the (terrible) stock audio they want, this update is still going to be awful and it really doesn’t help anyone without the ability to actually find audio relevant to them. The search feature on the website at large is extremely flawed especially on the audio side of things where you can’t even separate sound effects from music tracks.

this update just restricts indie/solo developers even more now. expected to make their own audio too lol.

as disgusting as the audio searching was, it was still useful when making miniature passion projects. you know, to FUEL imagination. now i’ll have to search around on google looking for audio with no copyright AND that actually sounds good.

not to mention, with this change. this is just becoming a platform for companies now

I have way over 10 audios in my game that I NEED to replace in less than 2 weeks.
I can only upload 10 audios per 30 days

see the issue?

#1637

It will not break the script it will just throw an error into the output when the game loads but the script will be fine as long as it doesn’t create the audio itself.

#1638

If you have DevEx’d before, you get 2,000 audio uploads per month I believe

The proper approach to creating a ‘GIF’ on Roblox is to create a spritesheet, a decal with several frames arranged like a grid on one image. You then use ImageRectOffset and ImageRectSize properties on an ImageLabel to display each frame sequentially. But let’s not further discuss this as the topic of this thread is audio privacy.

Roblox is gonna to loose a loot of money because of that update, and maybe a loot of developers

  1. IRL Cash → Robux → Catalog Items/Audios/Advertisments/Gamepasses
  2. Public Audios → Ussage to play music in games
  3. Radio Gamepasses → Robux → Money

and when will we be able to upload Videos on Roblox?
