Difficulties with music in DarkPlaces

[DieMatratze]

I'm trying to get music to work in DarkPlaces. I've converted the files to ogg, renamed them track002, track003, etc., and they're sitting nice and pretty in Quake/sound/cdtracks, yet they refuse to play. Where did I go wrong? I run Mac OS X (10.6.5), and I used SoX Wrap to convert the files from mp3 to ogg.

Quake/ID1/sound/cdtracks

Quake/ID1/sound/cdtracks

Still not working, but thanks.

Well, i have them in exact that directory and they work well. Do they work in winamp or other players? A other way is get the Auto Tracks from this thread (it's a .pk3 file), just put it into your ID1 Folder and DP should load it automaticly. Please remove the ID1/sound/cdtracks folder.

Hello DieMatratze,

you are not alone with your problem.
The reason for your issue is most propably:

I run Mac OS X

Read about it in this thread.
BoylerBoi is also infected with it...

Kind Regards,
Seven

I totaly overlooked that.

So it's just a bug in DarkPlaces' OS X port? That sucks.

guys, I run the win32 version and have the same problem... I used the OGG, renamed them, put them under ID1/etc etc and no sound (they work in winamp, so it's not the problem) I don't know what could be the problem...

Just tried converting to .wav. Still doesn't work. Not sure if this narrows it down or anything.

EDIT: I was dumb and forgot to place said wavs in cdtracks. Music works now!

I had the same issue and to fix it I had to go into my DirectX Diagnostic and disable hardware acceleration for sounds.
Start -> Run -> DxDiag -> Sound1 and Sound2 tab put to no acceleration and see if that fixes it.

For Mac users - not a clue (hate macs lol)
