Custom music?
« on: December 13, 2012, 08:02:01 pm »
Ok so i decided to add custom music... but for some reason its not working.
I converted them to .OGG and even changed the titles to the appropriate title.

For some reason its not working and I cant understand it... is there a utility or somthing?

Should work. Do you have music on? Is it at the correct bitrate etc.?

Yeah, I use Audacity and it works more than fine for that purpose. Try that.

That online converter will likely change some things around, etc.

Audacity lets you edit things to be... right.

Did you give it the exact same filename as the music file that comes with Dwarf Fortress? Did you put it in the exact same location? What do you mean that it's "not working"? Is any music playing at all?

It might be worth your while, rather than messing around with DF's music directly, to instead build yourself a custom playlist with the SoundSense utility. It's a pretty awesome tool.
