Posts from Creating a musical background.

I need help creating music for a map. The problem is with the "Music" line in the editor. I couldn't add music manually following the instructions for creating PWL and loading screens (link), although it seems possible. Also, I can't enter a value in the "FileName" field (which specifies the musical file) in the editor. Please help.

Adding music is actually the easiest part. Just put it in a folder like [game path]/Music (or wherever you want), then in the music file itself, in the FileName line, click on the "..." and find your music in the Music folder, and add it. And that's it...

Well, let's say I created a folder "[game path]/Music/Custom". There's a file called "Music.ogg" in it. But here's the problem: in the editor, if

you click on the "..." in the FileName line

, I don't get to search for a file; I can only type in the line. Looking at other "*.(Music)" files in the same line, I see, for example (file a1-Fortress): "..\\Music\\a1\\Town-Fortress.ogg", and I write similarly: "..\\Music\\Custom\\Music.ogg", but it doesn't work. Either it's necessary to select it (I don't know how), or the file format is not suitable (which is very unlikely) - I know OGG FLAC and OGG Vorbis (number 1 is needed) :smile15:

Yes, so you're writing based on analogy. It seems like everything is correct with you. And the actual format in the game is OGG Vorbis, if I'm not mistaken.

The format turned out to be incompatible. The music doesn't play on the map – and that's it. Nothing works --> OGG = FLAC, Vorbis(Stereo), FLAC with Stereo settings. The problem lies in the path to the music. It cannot be resolved.

File name: Forest1.ogg
Music file name: Music.(Music).xdb
