No mp3 format available?

#1 Post by Deirdre the mage » Sat Feb 09, 2002 2:32 am

It seems that the midi function of my present sound card doesn't seem to work. It would be good if the music was provided in mp3 format. <br><br>I keep getting the error message: Unable to initialize your audio hardware.

Soz, missed that one. And the problem still exists. No, there's no options for me to pick. Only fixed choices. Oh well, whatever. <p></p><i>Edited by: <A HREF=http://pub57.ezboard.com/udeirdrethemag ... EN>Deirdre the mage</A> at: 2/9/02 2:03:11 pm<br></i>

On the KQ1VGA website there is an option to download the MP3 music pack. I would suggest downloading that and installing it and see what happens. Besides, the MP3 music pack is just awesome anyway, so I'd recommend it even if you had no problems whatsoever. =)<br><br><br>Neocron<br>Online Community Director<br>Tierra Entertainment <p></p><i></i>

From the readme file:<br><br>"NOTE: The drop down selection boxes in the setup program don't appear to work properly, but you can still click on them and then move through the different options with the<br>arrow keys."<br><br>Is that what you mean? This bug will be fixed for good in the next release.<br><br> <p></p><i></i>
