Music Bug?

Post by Capitaine »

Curious about the music b/c one tune plays over and over and nothing else. So I looked in the music folder, and there are 6 music files (.ogg) which suggests we should be getting 6 different tunes instead of the one over and over.

Is there an explanation for this? Is the one song supposed to play over repeatedly like it does, to the exclusion of the others? If so, what are the other .ogg files in the music folder and how do we play them?

Captaine,

Here is what I understand the music files to be used for:

You get 6 music files... only the one named KPM01.ogg plays. If you want to change sounds, you rename the file you want to hear to KPM01.ogg and put it in the Music folder (can be any sound file, including one of your own)... just has to be KPM01.ogg.

Note 1: I don't use the in-game music. There maybe a way to have the music cycle that I don't know about.

Note 2 : the file shipped named KPM06.ogg is the original soundtrack to DBWWII 1 (TAO).

It funny, Freeboy called BiN the "Rolls Royce of computer wargames", which it is, but it doesn't even have a decent sound system[;)]. If you ask me i think the guy at DR that got canned did it to screw with us...."hee hee hee, that'll fix 'em , one tune over and over and then for an extra dose of pain there'll be applause...BRUHAHAHAHAHAHA....SILLY WARGAMERS"[:D]

I never use music or sound effects. Left over from too many years as a board gamer. The only sound effects that we had, can't be printed here. [:D]

Guys,
This looks like a bug - the music should play all of the available oggs in a random order. We will fix this up.

It is interesting since KP was subject to the same error. I could not hear music until new patch was available
Maybe wargamers do not pay attention to sound [:'(]

Ahem...i'd guess we'd have to split it as i was the first to mention it, see:"First Impressions". I'd rather see the "beer" got to Erik and crew...now THEY deserve it[:D].

But HellPatrol, you didn't report it as a "bug". There's the rub. [;)]

No bug report, no beer. [:D]

Is there a program to convert .wav or other common music files to an .ogg file?

I've never downloaded music like most others so I'm new to music wav files in all their various forms.
