lack of space but ....
"my other computer....what do i do after i get my group music list into map maker and from there into exporting into a file to share with friends??."
alright..i know i posted a topic of this the other day but i need to get this solved so i don't destroy my laptop hahaha
alright so i was able to make a custom group list in the FH..music.cfg file...and where do i go from there once i put the music name in the "music/group name(thing) in the map maker window and saved it...i exported the map out, figuring the music automatically went along with it...i used my laptop as a test for my map downloads from teh main computer..and once i got the downloads and such done..i went into that map and there was no music in existance in there..so i rarely take a look on the files i downloaded and i see there wasnt' some sort of music/sounds file that went with it..that there is my problem, how do i get the music group i created on my side into the files to be exported again?? i would very much like this to be a simple solution and thank you for helping..or just read hahaha
*oh yes, i forgot, the mp3 files only were able to play once they were in the Sounds folder and not music, but all played when i tested it out..*
if you are chosing to help me out, i will only ask when you do is to be very specific hahah if that isn't too much to ask
Thank you again,

and i can't wait to see if its only a 1-2-3 step process on my side hahaha
-
Hm. Did you place the full file name, including the .mp3 extension? And what do you mean it played when in the media/sounds directory? Was it pointing to media/sounds or media/music?
-
Yes the .mp3 extensions were in there...and its media/sounds....I can post a link ihere for my test map I made...it worked nicely for my test computer I use to tests on my maps...from the main pc..and there maybe you and/or another perosn(s) can see if I done it right or not....
-
What are you planning on doing? Making the map have music or change the game's music?
-
yes the map having music for a rp..
-
In that case, you shouldn't mess with your game's music.cfg. You just go on the Map Maker, put the music you want in Sounds, and type YOURFILENAMEHERE.mp3 in the Map Music textbox.
-
I understand that part,I can get music to play on my mapmaker(test) but idk how to share it with others after I export it, and place it to an compressed folder, if I want others to hear the music also..what do I do to help that??
-
For others to listen to the music, you need to give them the .mp3 file and tell them to put it in "media/sounds".
-
Ok...but its more than one .mp3 song that's in the map..a group list, I got the .mp3 files in the folder, I need to know how the other people can get it to play on their pc, after they download the file with the mp3
-
Well, I really don't know how to add more than one song. I usually just create a mix of all of them in editing suites, but if it's a multi-song map, I really don't know. I'll see if I can find out about the matter.
-
Thank you...I understood how to put a music list onto the FH music.cgf...and put the name of that title for the playlist, and exported it out..and I place the music files, and a read me note with the copy of my music playlist, I will send a link of a test map I made with the attempted instructions I wrote...it worked on my second laptop but not for one of my map testers...
-
That's happened to me. p-p
-
hmmm, give me a min please.... http://www.mediafire.com/?awmlb58zisw092s (http://www.mediafire.com/?awmlb58zisw092s)
thats the testtwo map i have done idk if my instructions are wrong or it was something else idk but can try hahaha worked when i downloaded it from my home computer from my laptop... i find it useful to test my maps from two different computers haha
-
Ok, checking it out.
-
Kk
-
Got it to work. You have to overwrite the "music.cfg" file in your main FH folder, please backup first, then drag the music to media/music.
-
Awesome so how was the instructiions?? New for me do try the group list..ok so instead of sounds..take them to music? Thanks for ur time with helping me with this
-
No problem!
-
I will try this again on another one of my official maps..and see if it works again and correctly haha
-
Good luck with that. :3
