Title: Custom maps music glitch
Post by: preshus30 on July 12, 2012, 11:23:54 pm

Ok so we all like to add music to our custom maps I'm sure, it really adds to the feel of the map. I, though, am having a major annoyance problem with Feral Heart's music thingy. I have an MP3 I want to add I've played it in Windows media, Quick time, Audacity, and internet browsers. It works just fine and sounds great in all of those BUT THEN I put it into a custom map in Feral Heart and when it plays it has these weird screech, scratch, and fuzz sounds dotted all over it. They are very annoying. Does anyone know what causes this or even better a way to stop it?

You can try opening this file in an editing program, for sound and/or video, like windows movie maker, or sony vegas, and pull up the music file. Here you should be able to see the actual pitch and pinpoint where if this is actually happening during the actual music file. I've never heard this glitch problem before, so it very well may be the track itself.

Well, I've tried that already with Audacity and Windows Movie maker, when playing in both of them and looking at the pitches nothing happens or changes they play normally. It's only inside of Feral Heart.

This has happened to me quite some times. I've noticed that it only happens when I make FeralHeart play files saved in a Variable Bitrate. Try making it export to a fixed bitrate, say, 256kbps, and tell me what happens. owo
