No Music Bug for 1.0 snapshots

[Daniel]

Okay, here's the problem.
I have that 25mb general midi soundfont, works perfect. My sound and music were both working perfectly before I installed the 2002/6/10 1.0. Now that I have installed them, I get music in the Exult Menu, but not in any of the games. I have tried to trigger it and it still won't work (double-clicking on intruments doesn't work either).
I might try the 1.1 (unstable) version but there was some talk of a new audio code being implemented, so I thought I might leave that for awhile.

Below is my stderr.txt

==========================================


And thats it. I hope you can figure it out, cause I sure can't.
Oh and another thing. I'm using an old savegame from RC2, maybe that's the cause?

[wjp]

Check your exult.cfg file to see if the volume_curve variable is set to 'f':

<volume_curve>
f
</volume_curve>

If so, replace that 'f' by a number like 16 or something.

[dag]

where do i get the 25 mb soundfont from? is it pd or something?

i have the sb live! player1024 installed and the largest soundfont file
that comes with the box is "only" 8 mb...

[dag]

all right, i've don some investigations on that topic...
(i mean the gm/gs midi issue)
there seem to be many, many soundfontbankdefinitionfiles out
there, and many are for free, but --

-- what in your opinion is the best one for exult??

i've tried a bit and all i figured out was that the original 8 mb
one from creative labs did the best job, it was even better
than some files that had a size of 20 mb or more! of course
i've done every single experiment just with exult, so maybe
those files do better jobs on different environments/games.

is there anyone out there who knows a "perfect" file for that
matter? i know that i could assign LOTS of memory to a
soundfont file with a sb live, so i feel a bit discontented with
my current setup.

thanx in advance

[SB-X]

Use the new digital music. I'm afraid I don't know anything about soundfonts sorry.

[Kuroshi]

I like the soundfont from the U7 in Windows page. But that's just me.

http://members.iinet.net.au/~rsd/Scc1t2.zip

[dag]

hmm, the new, sexy digital music thing is just in the 1.1 versions,
which i don't use for gaming purposes...

the provided soundfont from the u7-in-windows-site *rocks*,
because it sounds very similar - as far as i can remember -
to the old mt-32, that i had installed in my 486 some centuries
ago.
BUT -- my original-8-mb-creative-file sounds even better, although
not so close to the original. is has a richer, room-filling sound with
more realistic trumpets.
it's a sad thing that midi disappeared some while ago, now that
there are sound cards on the market that do a superb job in that
way....

....oh, i must be careful, or i really get offtopic here... i just used to
love the origin-midi-support those days...

[SB-X]

In the linux version it will play to an external midi device with playmidi if you compile without Timidity and without libkmid support.

[dag]

aaargh

currently i don't have linux installed, although i think i should have,
that's for sure
i've done a little more "research" on that soundfont topic, but i
failed finding a better file for exult and the sb-live series [for windows].
maybe i should go back gaming and forget about those technical
terms...
... or i should try to create a soundfont file on my own
... or i should wait until digital music is implemented in exult 1.0 )

by the way, how do you guys [i'm addressing the developers here]
record the stuff for the digital music output? i mean, do you use
the original mt-32 or do you use some kind of gm/gs device, maybe
with altered "midi calls"?
i'm just curious

and again, hail lord british and his exult team!

[Dominus]

Simon Quinn used his original Mt32 AFAIK.

You can also set up the windows version to play through an external midi device (that's why we list the midi devides in stdout.txt and have the option to set the device in exult.cfg).

So, is your music still gone in the games? Make sure that you either choose the correct mididevice in the midi settings of windows or in exult.cfg. Make sure midi-volume is not turned off or turned way down. Follow Wjp's advice on the volume_curve setting...

I use the General Sound 1.35 or something like that. It's a 25 MB soundfont.

[Daniel]

AH HAH

It was not version 1.0 that caused it, but rather the volume curve was set to 0.0100. It's weird how that happened but the problem is now fixed.

[Kuroshi]

Funny, my volume curve was set to the same thing (somehow) for something like two weeks before I noticed it a few days ago. How do I know it's been about that long? My MIDI would (quite often) begin holding certain notes played for the entire duration of the song. Change the volume curve, problem fixed. =)

[Dominus]

a bug we introduced, quite recently. People who are using the snapshots were the victims... Or even RC2-users, I don't know...

[British Fiend]

DAMMIT! I set my volume curve to 16, and it changes it back to "f" and I never hear any MIDI.
Tis so annoying!

[Dominus]

Are you using a newer snapshot?

[Daniel]

Thankyou Exult Team

[dag]

dominus, where did you get that "25mb-general-sound-1.35-or-
something" from? i have something at least similar to that on my
hd right now.
but it really doesn't sound that good despite the large size. amazingly,
the original 8mb cl-file does a far better job here.
midi support -- in what way ever -- has had better days...
just imagine: extremely small file sizes, customizable in many ways,
the possiblility to create _really_ interacive music where just some of
the advantages.

[British Fiend]

I fixed it, downloaded the newest snapshot and changed it in the CFG file.
Ooh, I was wondering, how do I use a midi patch? I downloaded the "SB patch for making Ultima 7 sound the way it should on a Roland Soundscape..." actually I can't remember if it was Soundscape, maybe it was Soundcanvas.

[Dominus]

Dag: Setting the midi-conversion to something like GS127 did wonders for me. I don't know where I got the file from exactly.. wait, I'm going to look it up. I got it from here:
http://www.sccmusic.250x.com/sfont/genuser/download.htm

British Fiend: If you mean the GM midi patch that patches files from the original U7, don't bother.
If you mean soundfonts, you need a card that supports these (like most of Creative's cards). Look in the manual of your card of how to apply them.
