Music Problem In Single Player - Can't Access Files!
2002-05-23, 6:22 AM #1
Hi!
I have a major problem getting music files from the "assets0.pk3" file to play on a single player level!
It can NEVER find the actual file, though in multiplayer, it works properly!
What is the problem?
How can I fix it?

Thanks! [http://forums.massassi.net/html/wink.gif]

Well, I downloaded the Imperial March off of Kazaa, called it impmarch.mp3, and put it in my base/music folder.

Then I added the following "key" to the worldspawn entity:

key: music
value: music/impmarch.mp3

You'd be suprised at how much some good music improves a level.

there are two ways to get music. One is to put music as your key and a value of the mp3 file you want to play in worldspawn. IE key music, value music/atrus_mine/tunnels_action.
The other way is to use a target_play_music and a trigger once to activate it. Use the same key and values as with worldspawn. One note. Do not place any part of a path before music or the value will not work. IE C:\LucasArts\JediKnightII\asetts0 etc.

i discovered that it doesn't work if the mp3 is recorded at under 120kbps

I have tried all that!
To try it out, I basically have done everything!
In the "worldspawn", I have tried the following values for the "music" key:

1 > music\yavin_final\yavfinal_action.mp3
2 > music\yavin_final\yavfinal_action
3 > yavin_final\yavfinal_action.mp3
4 > yavin_final\yavfinal_action
5 > yavfinal_action.mp3
6 > yavfinal_action

Yet, when I startup my single player level, it says it is unable to find the music or dynamic track and whatever I wrote in the value field for the "music" key...

What is wrong?

I see your problem.
use the / instead of the \.
in this case it would be music/yavin_final/yavfinal_action.mp3.
