Cormaher Report post Posted December 19, 2005 I've downloaded the music, made a folder named "Music" (uppercase M) in /usr/local/games/el/ (and later on also in ~/.elc/) and placed all the files there (.ogg and .pll) but I hear nothing ingame. All the settings in el.ini seem right. I use el-112 on FreeBSD 6.0-STABLE. Compiled everything by hand. do I need some package to be installed? libogg is there (1.1.2) and was there during compile. Konqueror plays the files nice and smooth in preview-mode. I see no errors when running EL. I tried different maps. I'm lost , what to do? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Arnieman Report post Posted December 19, 2005 Just a thought, you may have it installed correctly, just that there are lots of maps that lack music (and some maps that do are not throughout). IIRC, there should be a song playing in VotD if you go there. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cormaher Report post Posted December 19, 2005 Nope, nothing... Any (Linux / BSD) gurus that know how to do this? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Enki Report post Posted December 19, 2005 I have compiled the CVS version and sound works just fine here (FreeBSD 7.0-CURRENT) I placed the music files in music/ in my el directory.. Btw, have you checked the volume settings in elconfig? /Enki Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cormaher Report post Posted December 19, 2005 so that is lowercase "m" then? and in which directory did you place it? ~/.elc/ or /usr/local/games/el/ (or whatever you installed to)? volume settings (gain) are fine, both sound and music are the same. I hear thunder and rain (but I miss the teleportal-sound, but I always considered that a change in the game) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Enki Report post Posted December 22, 2005 I put it in the directory where I unzipped the linux client, in this case ~/.el/ with a lower case 'm'. I don't know if the lower case matters though. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ttlanhil Report post Posted December 23, 2005 I don't know if the lower case matters though. case does matter on *nix, we've had problems with that before (if you're in doubt about if it should be uppercased, you can try varying it... or just symlink so it has both ) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cormaher Report post Posted December 24, 2005 lowercase in /usr/local/games/el/ worked, but the music didnt sound as it should be. My guess is an overloaded CPU (allthough my Sempron 2800+ should do the trick) but I clearly hear "rubbed" music, which is horrible. Thanks all for thinking / giving hints!
