Music addons not working

Hi,

I'm on OSX 10.8.3 and running doomsday 1.9.10.

I downloaded all the addons and all the graphical packs, e.g. the texture pack and resource pack are all working fine. I did put them in DoomsdayEngine/Content/Resources/addons.

That's where I put the DOOM Classic Music and Doom 2 Classic Music pack too. I did activate them in addons and in doom I set options/audio to external files.
But the songs are not playing. I can unpack the PK3 in an other directory and play the oggs with VLC well.

Apperantly, Doom is not able to find the specific files, because in the console, I get the error message:

Warning "Music:data/jdoom/music/01_Bobby_Prince_-_Intro.ogg" for id 'intro' not found.

This is also happening for other soundtrack files. I did try to put the music unpacked in the addons folder and copied the soundtrack pk3 to several locations, but without success. I am browsing this forum for hours now for an solution but can't find it.

Any help please?

Thank you,

Horst

  • Looks like a bug. I can successfully play the music files with, say:
    playmusic file }data/jdoom/music/01_bobby_prince_-_intro.ogg
    
    I'll try investigating a little what's going on.

    EDIT: Found and fixed a bug on Unix platforms related to handling of file paths. The music should play normally in the next unstable build.
  • Hi, thanks, that made my day. I was about going nuts yesterday :-) Is there any timeframe when the next unstable build will arrive?
  • Great! Already tested. It' working fine.

    Thank you!
