Music

Fieari

<div class="IPBDescription">In the music folder</div> I've got a great little playlist in my music folder that really pumps me up to go and devour marines.

The problem is, music only turns on once every, I don't know, 12 games or so. It's annoying, I really want to hear my music in every game!

Is there any way to force it on?

Well, you can make a folder in ns/sounds called 'music', place your files in there, then type, in your console:

<!--c1--></span><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td><b>CODE</b> </td></tr><tr><td id='CODE'><!--ec1-->speak music/$filename<!--c2--></td></tr></table><span class='postcolor'><!--ec2-->

Replace $filename with the file you want to play. It's not a great way to do it, but it'll work.

You can also try Half-Life AMP. It's free, and allows you to control WinAMP while playing Half-Life. <a href='http://www.hlamp.com' target='_blank'>www.hlamp.com</a>

I hope that helps!

correct me if I'm wrong but won't speak console command play music over the voice comm as well <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo--> , that might not be what you want to do...

the speak command won't play mp3 files. NS uses FMOD to play mp3's, not the standard HL routines.

I have this same problem. I find that it only works if you see the beginning of the game - not joining while a game is running. I was hoping for a way to force it as well.
