All though this is a simple coding i get no errors but i get no sound

obj
forest_entrance
density=0
Enter()
view()<< sound('Sweet Sounds/forest1.wav',1)
sleep(100)
usr << sound('Sweet Sounds/Forest2.wav',1)
sleep(100)
usr << sound('Sweet Sounds/Forest3.wav',1)
usr << sound('Sweet Sounds/forest1.wav',)

I get the impression that what you want is a turf, not an obj. Objs are only Enter()ed when something is Move()ed into them. Turfs are Enter()ed whenever something steps on them.

You did a few things wrong. 1: You cannot Enter() an obj. 2: Instead of setting things to the forest object, you set it to all the objects. That's fixed by indenting:
obj
    forest_entrance
        density=0
        Enter()
            view()<< sound('Sweet Sounds/forest1.wav',1)
            sleep(100)
            usr << sound('Sweet Sounds/Forest2.wav',1)
            sleep(100)
            usr << sound('Sweet Sounds/Forest3.wav',1)
            usr << sound('Sweet Sounds/forest1.wav')

Though, still, it cannot be an object. So make it an area?
area
    forest_entrance
        density=0
        Enter()
            view()<< sound('Sweet Sounds/forest1.wav',1)
            sleep(100)
            usr << sound('Sweet Sounds/Forest2.wav',1)
            sleep(100)
            usr << sound('Sweet Sounds/Forest3.wav',1)
            usr << sound('Sweet Sounds/forest1.wav')

Usr is the atom entering, src is the atom being stepped on. He's right, use usr.

Actually he should be using the argument, not usr.

And actually, he should be using Entered(), not Enter().

Try this:

turf
  forest_entrance
  density = 0
  Entered(atom/A)
    if(ismob(A))
      view() << sound('Sweet Sounds/forest1.wav',1)
      sleep(100)
      A << sound('Sweet Sounds/Forest2.wav',1)
      sleep(100)
      A << sound('Sweet Sounds/Forest3.wav',1)
      A << sound('Sweet Sounds/forest1.wav',1)

Sure you can! However, that would require calling something.Move(obj) yourself.

Still using usr in view(). That should be view(A). In fact, it seems like it should just be A to be consistent with the rest of the proc.

Dude, don't edit your post to completely excise its content just because you made a mistake. Since someone else already replied to it, it's now context in a discussion. If they hadn't, of course deleting would be the better option if you felt the post shouldn't stay up, or you could have edited in a correction. Taking out all the content entirely is just pointless.

Perhaps its just a paranoid fear of doing something wrong on a forum where people jump down your throat for it.

I actually decided to delete it BEFORE it had been replied to, because I realised by testing it was wrong. Since for some reason I do not have the "delete" button, I simply edited it out and hoped for a moderator to delete it.

The delete button disappears once someone replies to your post. But since there was helpful info in the reply, it didn't make sense to lose that subthread.
