No music plays on my server even if I use the .music 38 nothing. The music is ticked active on the options menu.

You have a client issue there... I suggest looking at your game settings to make sure you have the music sound up and switched on. If you are using a patched version they might have turned it off in the UO config.

the music files should be UO/music

Ok i have done all that but still no music.

Post: #4

I am having the same issue, no music. Other sounds functions just fine, as does the opening music. I am using version 7.0.15.1 (Patch 51). I checked the options in the character profile and the Music section is checked, music turned all the way up.

Likewise I have set FeatureLBR = 02, as the files in the client folder are MP3 (not sure if this matters).

The contents of my client config file:

Okay, after some attempts at troubleshooting, I noticed that music did indeed play, but only in Britain. I had misnamed midi_britain2 to midi_britain.

Quote:[REGIONTYPE r_townBritain]
ON=@ENTER
SRC.MUSIC=midi_britain

ON=@CliPeriodic
SRC.MUSIC=midi_britain

Each time the CliPeriodic triggered, I received a sphere_backward_compatibility error as the midi def did not exist, but it did trigger 0 turfin,loop (the first file in my UO Client config, and a sort of default I suspect). After changing midi_britain to midi_britain2, no music plays at all.

For the sake of clarity, the REGIONTYPE in my region.scp for Britain reads:

Quote:[REGIONTYPE r_townBritain]
ON=@ENTER
SRC.MUSIC=midi_britain2

ON=@CliPeriodic
SRC.MUSIC=midi_britain2

The AREADEF of Britain in Map0 is:

Quote:[AREADEF a_townBritain]
EVENTS=r_default,r_default_rock,r_default_water,r_default_tree,r_default_grass,r_townBritain
NAME=Britain
GROUP=Britain
FLAGS=region_flag_nobuilding|region_flag_globalname|region_flag_guarded
P=1495,1629,10,0
RECT=1410,1517,1691,1778,0

RECT=1691,1532,1721,1595,0
RECT=1388,1697,1410,1766,0
TAG.GUARDOWNER=the city

I have likewise used this same method for each of the towns and some other areas where I want music. Additionally, music does not trigger for any of the previously existing REGIONTYPES (the ones not altered by me).

The music files of the client I am using are MP3. The midi defs in my sphere_def file are:

The function in backward compatibility is:

IF (<ISPLAYER>)
MIDILIST <ARGS>
endif
endif

Anyone have any ideas as to where I am going wrong? Something to do with midis and MP3 perhaps?

It seems fine. I have the same configurations, and it is playing the music in towns. I did not see any mistake. Defnames are correct and your usage of regiontype and the function on the triggers are okay.

Have you check is there any multiple music function ? Maybe you just forget it to remove with the new ones.

Just look for "[FUNCTION music]" in search. To search in an easy way, just download "Agent Ransact" which is i guess the best tool for looking around text based stuff.

Or you can just try this one by sending packet to client to call music.

[function music]
IF (<ISCHAR>)
IF (<ISPLAYER>) && (<ISONLINE>)
SENDPACKET 06D W<HVAL <ARGN1>>
ENDIF
ENDIF

For instance, you should use this like "src.music 10" ==> referred to Britain_midi from defnames
