Re: CD Music?
 

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">For the fourth time: I do not see any music files on the CD at all. Neither does my friend on his.

We both just ordered the game directly from Malfador Last week. I'm starting to think the music was left off this batch of CD's or something. The thing is, I really don't care about music if the game plays fine, but I'd still like to know why this doesn't work.

Re: CD Music?
 

Try placing an Audio CD in the drive, and run SE4. This will see if it is the game CD with the problem, or some configuration problem.

Also see if you can get the game CD music to play in a stereo or CD player. Remember, track 1 is data, and needs to be skipped in such a device.

Also try playing the game CD music in WinAmp or Windows Media Player (or some other such program) by loading a directory and selecting "D:\".

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">You won't see them in Explorer because they are Audio tracks on a combination Data/Audio CD. Explorer just treats such CDs as Data CDs.

I was editing my post to include that while you were writing that post....

Re: CD Music?
 

Ah, ok. Gotcha now on the non-reading of the music.

I can get the music to play in Windows Media Player, but no go in game.

Re: CD Music?
 

Ok. Try placing a different Audio CD in the drive, and see if SE4 plays that when you run it. If so, then there could be an issue with your se4 CD. If not, then there is no problem with your se4 CD itself. We will have to try something else to figure out why it is not working. I assume you are on the latest patch of SE4 Gold (1.84)?

Re: CD Music?
 

Started up the game with a commercial music CD in the drive... same thing. Game plays fine, but no music. The CD drive light is flickering, but the drive doesn't seem to be moving.

And yes, I am on the 1.84 patch. I also have the new TDM modpack installed. That's it.

Re: CD Music?
 

Try enabling Digital Audio Playback for the CD Drive.

Re: CD Music?
 

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Two questions:
1) Are you loading SE4 with the TDM mod, or with no mod?
2) Did you check the relevant Settings.txt? If you are loading with TDM, did you check Data\Settings.txt or TDM-Modpack\Data\Settings.txt?

Just go make sure both are set to TRUE. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

Re: CD Music?
 

The box to enable Digital CD Audio is greyed out. Not sure why, or how to un-grey it...
