Cutscenes and CD audio are silent

[Nash]

There is no sound for Blood's cutscenes and CD audio, as well as SW's CD audio.

[XxMiltenXx]

The sound for the cutscenes is working fine for me. I simply copied over raze into my Blood folder.

Here's my blood.ini

I haven't tried the CD Audio yet as I do not know how to set it up in raze. If you can tell me how, I can test it on my system.

[Graf Zahl]

CD Audio tracks must be either in the root directory of the game or a subdirectory called "music".
But it is disabled by default - you need to switch it on in the audio menu.

[Graf Zahl]

Cutscene sound works fine. Need more info.
CD music also works. There must be something wrong with your setup.

[Kinsie]

Unable to get cutscene sound or CD audio here either. Cutscenes are playing fine from the SMK files, but the WAV audio isn't playing alongside them.

[Graf Zahl]

Can you post both blood.ini and a directory listing of your installation?

[Kinsie]

Blood Subfolder of Raze folder

Blood.ini should be identical to the one shipped with the GOG version.

[Graf Zahl]

For me the movie sound plays correctly. Do you have the .wav files in your movie folder or just the smk's?
For the CD audio, have you enabled it in the menu?

[Kinsie]

For me the movie sound plays correctly. Do you have the .wav files in your movie folder or just the smk's?
For the CD audio, have you enabled it in the menu?

CD Audio Emulation is enabled. The WAV files are present.

Cutscene audio seems to be fixed in 0.4.0. CD music is still absent.

[Nash]

With 0.4.0, both CD audio and cutscenes work for me. Not sure what the problem was with my homebrew build.

[Kinsie]

Fixed the CD audio issue - tracks had to be called "blood##" instead of "track##" like I assumed. Derp.

[Dynamo]

I know trackXX is for shadow warrior and exhumedXX and now bloodXX also work, but what does redneck rampage use, if anything? redneckXX?

[Kinsie]

I know trackXX is for shadow warrior and exhumedXX and now bloodXX also work, but what does redneck rampage use, if anything? redneckXX?

Looking at the source, it SHOULD be track##, but it doesn't seem to be playing...

[Graf Zahl]

The track naming was sadly done very inconsistently. I kept the names used in the parent port so that both can access the same files without having to rename them for each. I think I add a CVAR where the name can be customized.

Redneck Ramage's CD audio works a bit differently from the others and it may be that my most recent changes to the music system have broken it.
Will have to test this evening.

[Kinsie]

The track naming was sadly done very inconsistently. I kept the names used in the parent port so that both can access the same files without having to rename them for each. I think I add a CVAR where the name can be customized.

Might be worth checking for three different prefixes - "track", the short game name used for the .def file (so, for example, "blood" or "rrra") or a cvar-defined prefix. This should cover pretty much all the bases within reason.
