El Music!

[Roja]

http://el.tfm.ro/music.zip

 

It is about 25MB to download.

 

All you need to do is unzip it into your Eternal Lands directory. When you unzip it, there should be a folder called Music created. Make sure there are no subfolders inside the music folder, and that you only see the music files and the playlist files. Then restart the game, and make sure you have the Music Enabled. Not all the maps have music yet, and certain parts of certain maps don't have any music either.

 

To always have the sound fx & music play when you start the game, all you have to do is go to the ELConfig.exe program in your EL directory. There you will be able to check if you want the sound/music to be enabled or disabled.

Give a big thanks to all those who have contributed by making these great music pieces for the game!

[Aitrus]

Nor for me. Even though the little red square next to music is on, the files were unzipped, and I restarted the client.

[Roja]

hm ok..well I guess it won't work until the next client update... well, keep that music directory, cause it'll work then

[Shoarma kip]

is that a hint? so i gues we wont have to wait super long for the next client update?

You don't have to wait. Just compile your own from CVS.

[darkst]

I got it to work by editing the pll files. Of course I have kept the originals....

[Derin]

Darkst,

 

How did you edit them and did you get it to work under the official client (1.00)?

[darkst]

With wordpad - and I am using the current client - el_100_patch.

[Tripp9]

How do you know if you are using the current client?

[darkst]

You are using the current client if you downloaded the game from the EL site, and optionaly also downloaded the el_100_patch.exe file.

[Lazton]

what did you do to make the music work? you said edit with wordpad, but what exactly did you edit?

[darkst]

The new format has 5 params before the filename. The old format just has 2, with different meanings. I put "1 100" for each file, which means the file will always be played.

 

Don't forget to keep the original files for when the new client appears.

[Buuhan1]

do i put "1 100" infront of all the file names in pll files with more then one file name in it?

 

EDIT:well i put 1 100 infront of all file names in all pll files and i have no music

Cut'n'paste a line from one of the pll files so I can see what you did.

[Derin]

Cut'n'paste a line from one of the pll files so I can see what you did.

If you got it to work, wouldn't it be nice of you to cut-and-paste an example of what you did?

[Buuhan1]

single filename pll file

1 100 mountainwoods.ogg

 

more then one filename pll file

1 100 smokeonallhorizons.ogg 
1 100 inthetavern.ogg

1 100 smokeonallhorizons.ogg
1 100 inthetavern.ogg

1 100 smokeonallhorizons.ogg
1 100 inthetavern.ogg

 

and it don't work

[Hazor]

1 100 mountainwoods.ogg

Needs to be:

1 100 ./music/mountainwoods.ogg

[Derin]

Ty, Tiras.

 

Just what I needed - music at last!

Edited November 27, 2004 by Derin

[Metraxis]

How about posting a .pll for the 1.00 version? Redundant edits seem silly.

[Buuhan1]

i added 1 100 ./music/ infront of all my filenames in all my pll files and i still don't have sound,and yes i restarted el

Sorry - I ssumed my description was good enough! And Buuhan1 got it spot on first time.

In fact either format will do. It is odd that that change got it working for Derin.

 

 

Buuhan1: Nor sure why it still doesn't work. The pll and the ogg files need to be in the music subdirectory from the main EL directory. Check that you havent accidentaly got two levels of music directory - the zip file should have been unzipped from the EL main directory.
