Music on level with weapon

[sssssssssss]

I have this script, that should be playing the music.
When it was in the level scripts, the mp3 file just needed to be in the base part of the main graal folder, e.g. C:/Graal. I put the mp3 in the music folder and the main folder, and nothing plays. It does say in F3 options that it has the right name to play, and changes as I go to the levels needed, but no sound comes out. One of the mp3's is the same that used to work fine on a level npc.

PHP Code:

//#CLIENTSIDE
function onCreated()
{
  setTimer(0.05);
}
// Music
function onTimeout(){
  if (player.level.name == "crosscastle_1c10.nw"){
    playlooped("armageddon-saljiut.mp3");
  }
  if (player.level.name == "crosscastle_1d10.nw"){
    playlooped("armageddon-saljiut.mp3");
  }
  if (player.level.name == "crosscastle_1b05.nw"){
    playlooped("armageddon-lystra.mp3");
  }
  if (player.level.name == "crosscastle_1b04.nw"){
    playlooped("armageddon-lystra.mp3");
  }
  if (player.level.name == "crosscastle_1c05.nw"){
    playlooped("armageddon-lystra.mp3");
  }
  if (player.level.name == "crosscastle_1c04.nw"){
    playlooped("armageddon-lystra.mp3");
  }

  setTimer(0.05);
}

I know this doesn't help your problem but you should consider using arrays and get rid of the timeout loop, onPlayerEnters will work fine.

PHP Code:

//#CLIENTSIDE 
// Music 
function onPlayerEnters(){ 
  temp.saljiut = {
    "crosscastle_1c10.nw", "crosscastle_1d10.nw"
  }
  temp.lystra = {
    "crosscastle_1b05.nw", "crosscastle_1b04.nw",
    "crosscastle_1c05.nw", "crosscastle_1c04.nw"
  }
  if (player.level.name in temp.saljiut) { 
    playlooped("armageddon-saljiut.mp3"); 
  } 
  else if (player.level.name in temp.lystra) { 
    playlooped("armageddon-lystra.mp3"); 
  } 
} 


Try placing the files in the music folder, then delete your filenamecache file, and reload Graal so it has to go through your Graal folder and files again.

Are you getting any failed downloads in the F2 console?

Make sure you have .mp3 listed in the folder config where the files are saved, i think

[sssssssssss]

yeah, its saying its not found in f2, but its in the main root graal folder for sure, and its the same name in the script as the name of the mp3. Its not on rc, shouldnt have to be, on the level npc script it worked fine when the file was in my C:/Graal folder without being on rc.

Tried doing that and placing in levels/music, then in just C:/Graal, no go.

[sssssssssss]

Any other ideas why it wouldnt find it? it makes no sense to me.

[salesman]

You should really try uploading it on RC...if it's saying file not found, that's more than likely the problem.

[sssssssssss]

thats why :/

[sssssssssss]

We were gonna use mp3, but this is graal, so screw it midis it is.

[LoneAngelIbesu]

I would imagine your problem is that it starts playing every 0.05 seconds. Stop using a timeout.

[sssssssssss]

I did, i changed that. My problem isnt that it starts playing every 0.05 seconds, because....

...like i stated before, the file isnt being found.

It would help if you updated your script in the OP.

Anyways, have you tried putting your files in the /sounds/ directory?

Why are you doing it this way, anyways? Nobody but you is going to be able to hear the music...

[fowlplay4]

I'd recommend finding a web-host that people could stream the music files from, than just use a url like so:

playlooped("http://www.somewhere.com/else/audio.mp3");

OR

Request an increase in download-able file sizes, so you can upload them to your server and just use the play command like normal.

[sssssssssss]

It's really not a big deal, b/c most people play w/o sound anyways. I thought about streaming it after these problems started, but decided that its just easier to use midis, at least for now. ty though peoples.

[sssssssssss]

Something else strange has happened now. I have this weapon playing the midis.

PHP Code:

//#CLIENTSIDE
// Music  
function onPlayerEnters(){  
  temp.saljiut = { 
    "crosscastle_1c10.nw", "crosscastle_1d10.nw" 
  };
  temp.lystra = { 
    "crosscastle_1b05.nw", "crosscastle_1b04.nw", 
    "Crosscastle_1c05.nw", "crosscastle_1c04.nw" 
  };
  temp.onlinestart = "armageddon-onlinestart.nw";
  if (player.level.name in temp.saljiut) {  
    playlooped("armageddon-saljiut.mid");  
  }  
  else if (player.level.name in temp.lystra) {  
    playlooped("armageddon-lystra.mid");  
  }  
  else if (player.level.name == temp.onlinestart){
    playlooped("armageddon-onlinestart.mid");
  }
} 


and took out all the level npcs that were playing music before. but I keep having the music stop in 1 level, and get this error in F2.

No clue what 0.wav is, never had anything like that, and sde-armageddon-town1.mp3 was taken out of the level a long long time ago.

I double checked the level, and did a scan on all levels, weapons, and classes in rc, and it said it didnt fine "sde-armageddon-town1" in any of them. So any other ideas anyone may have would be helpful, because its really annoying.

upload it on RC and make sure you have in the folder options

file folder/folder/*.mp3

probably levels/music?

Not sure how scanning works. Have you opened the level as text and checked?

[sssssssssss]

I checked in notepad, nothings there.

Im not wanting it to work, and it thinks its there for some reason. Its out of everything.

[sssssssssss]

Is there any other thing i can check? any other possibility it would be doing this?

[sssssssssss]

would a gserver reset be logical with this problem, the lv4 sword problem, and the bomb and arrow problem on the server?
