Hello,
I do not know if this is the right spot to ask but...
I have new sounds in my game that play as PlayBacksound on my development machine. But on my "cursed" computer they dont play at all. The new Quicktime7 window does not open. I remember having a similar problem some time before but can not remember what I did to solve it :angry:
Do I have to change something in the IE preferences? The popups are not blocked (other windows like the help function pop up) and the firewall is open for Quicktime too.
I would like to hear my new beats in my game so...
Can you give me a tip what/where to look?
Greets and have a nice day
Marius
Hi!
The audio plugin should work without particular cares.
The popup blocker might just prevent the background music window from opening. The audio plugin should be able to produce sound effects all the way.
Which version of QT do you have?
I recommend to try using your browser on Underworld: if no sound/music is there, then something must be wrong on your PC: you need to reinstall the plugin, perhaps trying another version of QT. If you hear sounds in Unerworld, then the problem is in your game (wrong filename? lower/uppercase mismatch?) just check the produced HTML from your game's pages (you might even discover that the game engine needs fixing, but I think not - on my machine it works)
If it does not work, a solution could be that of un-selecting MID and WAV formats from Quicktime Preferences/file format associations, then open Windows Media Player and configure it to catch these types.
As a very last resort, I once tried a third-party plugin (free) which was called "Crescendo". This is capable of playing MIDI files and worked fine on my old Win98 machine. A search on google will sort this out.
By the way, this week I should be able to finally check out the issue about 3rd person view incosistencies. Sorry for long wait but I had lots of work for the new underworld site I'm nearly at it at last!
Holla,
yes... problem is on my side again, ofcause ;)
I have checked my sounds at a friends and they are running.
Maybe you work on Underworld while I type this and thats why the server is down in the moment. I have tried to connect and do some shring, shring with my new baby aka personal weapon ;)
Cheers and talk to you soon
