Ambient Music Error

[Pixel 181]

I get this error http://gyazo.com/e92bc96dcb15a347f3faeafab73ff970 the music can be found, it's just the folder can't be opened. Is this an issue?

You are not supposed to add the .mp3 file to the csv.

You are not supposed to add the .mp3 file to the csv.

You mean here? http://gyazo.com/2825ee3ac815106c2987db78f70ec3b9 Screenshot contains path in program files and the entry in .csv

it cannot find the file in your cod4 directory as in this way Call of duty4/raw/sound/mp_deathrun_revolution - if you went there right now, you wouldn't find mp_deathrun_revolution there and it tells you, when it searches there it cannot find the file so it fails to load it and throw that error at you.

 

Solution, move the file to "Call of Duty 4 - Modern Warfare\raw\sound\place file here", if there no sound folder, create one.

but there is a folder there

[Lossy 1968]

is the music file there?

[Gabe 64]

the song should be exactly where you said it as going to be in the csv, and the exact same name.   Other wise it will not recognise that there is the song inside that folder.  Therefor giving you that error and carries on compiling...  

Dont forget to add the music to your .iwd as well :o

No i meant the the main map csv aka zone files:

looks like you've added your .mp3 to the zone files, which is wrong. You're only supposed to add the soundalias to the csv, to make custom sounds works.

 

Like that: sound,soundaliasname,,all_mp.

 

Haven't done much mapping nor modding in the last couple of weeks, means I'm probably wrong. So if that doesn't work, then post your whole soundalias here, and the path of your sound file.

[~Budzy~ 661]

Just get your mp3, put it in your raw > music folder, go into raw > soundaliases and make a csv called songname.csv  (song name being the music)  and put this code in it 

name,sequence,file,vol_min,vol_max,vol_mod,pitch_min,pitch_max,dist_min,dist_max​,channel,type,probability,loop,masterslave,loadspec,subtitle,compression,seconda​ryaliasname,volumefalloffcurve,startdelay,speakermap,reverb,lfe percentage,center percentage,platform,envelop_min,envelop_max,envelop percentage


songname,,music/songname.mp3,0.7,0.7,ambience,,,,,ambient,streamed,,looping,,all_mp,,,,,,

then do what beat did and add sound,songname,,all_mp.

 

and ofc your ambient play script 

 

then add the mp3 to your iwd > sound > music

 

(thats the way I do it)

Thanks guys. I will try when I'm up to it. I've been out all day so I'm rather tired, plus I had no sleep and have been playing football for like 4 hours

Try doing

music() 
{
level waittill( round_started );

AmbientPlay( song1 );
}

your problem is that you need to rename song1.csv to legendary.csv and change the first column from song1 to legendary.

[Pixel 181]

Try doing

 

music() 
{
level waittill( round_started );

AmbientPlay( song1 );
}

I did, didn't work

I don't have a filename called song1.csv?

[~Budzy~ 661]

Then make it, like i said make a csv called THE SONG NAME .__. 

[Darmuh 1090]

I don't have a filename called song1.csv?

the csv file you posted, the first line is for name. That is supposed to be what your file is named.

[Lossy 1968]

also you're trying to play a .mp3 file called song1 but the .mp3 file is called legendary

[Pixel 181]

where abouts to i place the IWD? I put it in my map folder in usermaps and it didn't work ehhh

[~Budzy~ 661]

Make an iwd and put it in the mod you use and just run it off the .map
