Getting music to play on a map?

[Ragnar]

I know this was possible on the DSY online files. Is it possible using the emulator files?

 

[Zidio]

could you do something useing QFunction or something erm check map xxxx if map xxx goto open mp3 dont know maybe you would have to play around.

 

[Babyhack]

In mapinfo MUSIC(filename) after the mapname
also make sure the mp3 is in the music folder

So a new folder called Music in the client folder?

yes

20 characters

 

[Ragnar]

Well
[0 Inner Mainland 0] MUSIC(Dogs.mp3)

And having the file in Client\Music\Dogs.mp3

Wouldn't work =p.

 

[Babyhack]

drop the .mp3

BH .

 

[Ragnar]

Still nothing ><.

 

[Babyhack]

Ledu or emu ?

BH

 

[Azura]

i thought it had to be in the Map folder of the server files

mirserver\Mir200\Map\Music

 

[Babyhack]

why would any music have to be server side
all sounds are client side

BH

BH

Ledu .

I'll try that Lyncus

EDIT: Nope, didn't work ><.
EDIT2: Thought you ment the client map folder, thats what didn't work anyways and i agree with BH, i doubt the server files would need the music.

but you need the server side to tell the client what to play, as you do with maps. not saying it will work, but its worth a try

The mapinfo is what should say what to play. The maps have to be serverside aswell because otherwise people could just rename some other map to the same name, and they could walk on walls or whatevver.

 

[Azura]

also does the client only read .wav files?

 

[Babyhack]

No ledu can read MP3 files

will look into it myself now

BH

 

[Primal]

dont u just rename the file to the same as the town name in the Wav folder?
e.g.
\client\Wav\bichonwall-0.wav
or just \client\Wav\bichonwall.wav?

 

[Elijah]

renaming would work yes.

Also.

p.s Wouldnt it be easy to make a npc which allows you to play music?

Doesn't seem to work for me that way either :/.

Not sure on the MUSIC(x) method but the simple MUSIC method works,

./MUSIC/sound.lst
Map number / MP3 File name
EG:
0 Music\Bichontune.mp3
