 |
|
If my map ambient music is being played in OGG format, and then a battle starts which uses battle music in MIDI format, it does not play. The sound effects are perfectly there, but the battle music and victory music are absent.
I am also not setting the ambient music via general map data, I am setting it up in a script. The map ambient music is set to: -same as previous map- for both maps using OGG and MIDI music in general map data. The autorun script uses "set ambient music" to set up the music for the map.

Does your ambient music play during the battle, or does no music at all play?
What if you switch between these two songs in Custom, or set them as the ambient music of two adjacent maps?
Do you have the same problem for all pairs of OGG and MIDI songs or just these two?
I assume you're using the default backends (either a stable release, or a default nightly build).

No music plays at all, just sound effects.

It is all maps which use this OGG music, that do not have any MIDI for battle music.

This is my only imported OGG music file, other music is MIDI. The OGG file is very short and small.

I am using the latest stable download for Linux.

I just had a chance to download and try the nightly, and the bug is still there unfortunately.
Overall, the nightly works good with my current game(used a copy of the game, so I can still work on it in stable).
Here is a copy of the g_debug.txt:

It's not displaying any messages relating to not being able to play the music.
The only issue I have with the nightly is that the fact that every save is in a separate file.  I plan on using export globals to save some "special data", some of which I would not want copied or sometimes removed. I guess I will need to put in some sort of verification or checksum to make sure files haven't been swapped and such to cheat, or cause confusion within the game itself. Some of these globals are required for some function to work in the game, they are placed in a separate file, so that every save file has access to those features that were say unlocked and such.
Although this multi-save file feature does bring in new possibilities... I could for example store licensing info or paid purchases in them(if I wanted to go that route). It would be an interesting idea though to try out. I could give away exclusive items for contests by emailing them an RSAV file... Hmm, starting to think of more possibilities with this. I can make an item trading system... The only problem with RSAVs is that you can more easily back up single save files.
TMC, I'll Email you a copy of my RPG file and an RSAV saved in the exact area of the bug to be used with the latest nightly. Hopefully this can get resolved soon.
