Title: AGS 2.71 speech and music files
Post by: ManicMatt on Wed 04/01/2006 10:52:04
Me again! I loaded up my game made from AGS 2.7 to 2.71 and everything seems fine except the speech and music files won't play.

This seems to be because the engine has created seperate folders for speech and music, and if I copy the speech and music back to where it was before it works fine, but my question is...

Is this the right course of action to have taken? Will my game work fine now?

Ive only had AGS a couple of weeks and I had a problem with sound and music files.
What I was doing wrong was trying to load a MUSIC file with a .wav extension.
What I do now is to put all the mp3 and wav files in the main game folder.
When your game calls for SOUND1 or whatever it will only  load and play sound files, and when  MUSIC1 is
called it will only play mp3 files and they must be in the main game folder.
I cant help you with speech files as I havent tried them yet, but I have found the sound and music files
work okay.

Best of luck..

No, I think he's got it right, we're talking about the not-on-the-main-page version, btw no it should be in the folders matt.

Hmm yeah Elliott, in the folders they don't work. Have they changed what the file names need to be?

See Mike, I could play music, speech, and sounds before I upgraded the version of AGS I'm using.

I used AGS about two years ago and didn't have problems with music/audio. Now, though, I can't seem to get a .mid file to play. I've named it music1.mid (not .mid.mid) and placed it in the music folder. I've set it to play when my first room loads, but no dice.

Any suggestions?
