Unable to cast value to object

YozyRoblox · December 16, 2023, 4:19pm

You can write your topic however you want, but you need to answer these questions:

What do you want to achieve? Keep it simple and clear!
I want to make a sound fade out
What is the issue? Include screenshots / videos if possible!
The script gives me an error ‘Unable to cast value to object’
What solutions have you tried so far? Did you look for solutions on the Developer Hub?
I couldn’t find any solutions
After that, you should include more details if you have any. Try to make your topic as descriptive as possible, so that it’s easier for people to help you!

local FacilityMusic = script:WaitForChild("FacilityMusic")
local HouseMusic = script:WaitForChild("HouseMusic")
local ShrineMusic = script:WaitForChild("ShrineMusic")
local Static = script:WaitForChild("StaticSound")

function Facility()
	TS:Create(FacilityMusic, TweenInfo.new(2), {Volume = 1}):Play()
	TS:Create(HouseMusic, TweenInfo.new(2), {Volume = 0}):Play()
	TS:Create(ShrineMusic, TweenInfo.new(2), {Volume = 0}):Play()
	TS:Create(Static, TweenInfo.new(2), {Volume = 0}):Play() -- the line that the error happens on
	while CurrentMusic == "Facility" do wait() end
	TS:Create(FacilityMusic, TweenInfo.new(2), {Volume = 0}):Play()
	spawn(Music)
end

Please do not ask people to write entire scripts or design entire systems for you. If you can’t answer the three questions above, you should probably pick a different category.

You could try something like this,

local Tween = game:GetService("TweenService")
local Sounds = {path}

local function Facility()
	for _, Sound in pairs(Sounds:GetChildren()) do
		if Sound.Name ~= "FacilityMusic" then
			Tween:Create(Sound, TweenInfo.new(2), {Volume = 0}):Play()
		end
	end
end

I feel like it’s more simple to just do them one at a time since there are only 3 other sounds

DasKairo · December 16, 2023, 4:43pm

What is this supposed to be?

YozyRoblox · December 16, 2023, 5:13pm

Music() is a function that chooses the next music

It would appear to me that ‘Static’ is a value, instead of an object. The error is saying you the function needs an object type, but you’re passing in a value type, which it can not convert to object. So either you’re setting it somewhere else in the script, or it’s another problem

hellohennessy · December 16, 2023, 6:23pm

On what line is the error? And can you tell us what you are trying to do? Giving us your broken script with 0 context and explanation isn’t helping.

It’s an object and I only set the variable at the top of the script

ExercitusMortem · December 16, 2023, 7:00pm

Well, I can see that you create a function called Static. That means you’re overwriting the variable.

Katrist · December 16, 2023, 7:02pm

You named a function Static too, so it thinks you’re referencing the function. Just rename your sound variable to StaticSound and change the variable names.
