music and jka (sp)

[Lazarus]

 

I am having an issue with loading my music. I am always getting a bad or unsupported file. I checked the settings with excisting music within JKA and tried to bring to them , but i always get this back

I converted it multiple times, but to no avail.

44100 hz
constant bitrate
stereo (i also tried it with mono)
i had 128kbs but i also tried 96 kbs

Anyone any idea?

Can you provide the mp3 file?

If the MP3 file is truly 128 kbps stereo, it should work. Triple check that. Otherwise, we need a sample of the file to examine.

Also, how is the music being triggered? If it's the general map music, what is the value being used to play it?

we-transfer is good for 3 days. 

 

okay --- changed something, switched the slashes to backslashes. That throws the next error in.

What was wrong with it? Since i wanna tweak it a bit still, but so i know what needs to be different.

Did it work? If so, all I did was open it in Audacity, opened a music file from the JKA assets, copy the waveform of yours and paste it in the other one, exported as a new file. I have no idea why that is required with OpenJK but it's the only way to get sounds to work sometimes.

If the mp3 is downloaded from a website or something initially, it could include a cover/thumbnail image which won't work ingame (and is hard to tell), you'll need to strip that off using a program like Mp3tag.

*If* you tend to download mp3s off of youtube, this is common, just a heads up

Actually, upon further testing I noticed the asset music is all in joint stereo rather than normal stereo so I exported your original track to joint stereo and that worked as well.

Thanks for the explination. This song was generated via suno.com (its an ai tool) I was stuck on the original one when i was working on Ableton, so i decided to get some inspiration and generate a song. I actually liked this version, hence i wanted to use it for now as background music, i intend to use later my original one in Ableton, but in the mean time, this is a nice change up.

Anyway, once you download it from suno.com, it indeed shoot an image along as it depicts the state of the image. Your theory is probably also true @Aldro Koon , as i ll check in suno if i i have to change the stereo to normal, in stead of joint @Circa
