Anyone Else Having Troubles With The Built-in Mp3?

<div class="IPBDescription">Because I am.. Heh</div> I boot NS, go into a game.. and it starts working. Great. I can hear the songs, everything seems fine, etc. etc.

However - When I die for the first time after booting NS, the songs will stop. They won't ever start again, either, and for the life of me I can't figure out a way to re-start the songs.

Anyone else having this problem? Any fixes?



Thanks,
Obi

    Hmm I think you need to use a special prog for it. Not completly sure cause I use to concetrate on the game than hearing mp3s <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    You don't need to use an external program.. There's a built-in one that should be functioning properly.

    ... and remove any custom spray that you have ... yes.

    backup your pldecal.wad if you have a custom spray before doing this.

    cl_musicenabled "0"
    cl_musicvolume "110.000000"
    cl_musicdirectory ""
    cl_musicdelay "90.000000"

    try setting the delay lower?

    This problem's been there ever since v1.0

    i notice that if u join team before the countdown of the new round (those DING, DING sounds in readyroom) then u can have ur music on... if not, u wont have music thru out the whole game even after map changes

    However, i noticed that u can use the "nexttrack" command to play mp3's now... i hope that'll fix that.

    If you don't want to lose pldecal.wad, try making it read only. Works like a charm, and you can hit customize anytime you want, Maverick.

    Simple:
    Winamp > <a href='http://www.hlamp.com' target='_blank'>HLAmp</a> > Create a commandmenu.txt > Bind a key to <b>+commandmenu</b>

    I like playing in windowed mode (meaning not full screen). Takes a bit to get used to but say goodbye to loss of sound and need for HLAmp. Plus I can talk on AIM and browse the internet while being digested ^o^.

    Do you mean to say 'say goodbye to sound'?

    if you alt+tab while full screen when you come back you have no sound. its a bug in hl that is only just being fixed for the next patch

    BTW i love windowed mode but it seems to be more laggy at times. then again only "elite" people know how to turn it on <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

    I've been alt-tabbing without losing sound for the last 2 years playing HL mods. :/

    I too have this problem with the music stopping when I die. Thanks for the nexttrack tip, I'll try that. Should make a post in the bug reports forum too I suppose.
