Title: Changing music
Post by: Vi on June 7, 2005 07:05 pm CDT: Every time I replace the .wav files in the RPG folder the game crashes. I wanted to replace KeldrinTown.wav with some other music. Does anyone know how to do this, and keep the game from crashing?

is this on the server end or the client end?

OR you may need to make sure your wave files are the same quality as the one tribes uses... or you might need more ram to load up that extra sound. I don't rightly know... doh!

In rpgmap5.mis theres a line like this:
instant SimGroup "Zones" {
      instant SimGroup "PROTECTED Keldrin Town" {
      instant SimGroup "MUSIC KeldrinTown.wav 55";
      instant SimGroup "MUSIC keldrinmusic2.wav 28";
      instant SimGroup "ENTERSOUND object_harp.wav";

If the music you are putting in is longer, the music will overlap because the timer is going to tell tribes to play the sound again even though it's still already playing, most likely causing a crash.

change the length values in the tribes code.

I don't suppose you could tell me how?
