Hello! Can this mod work correctly now? Or is there a new version? Not the one in the link http://steamproxy.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=955102708 to another similar mod, it doesn’t work well there

This mod no longer works. A newer music player is available here: http://steamproxy.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=955102708

Sadly, I think the latest patch has broken this music player :(

Hi;

Mod crashes when loading, here's log:


stack traceback:
1: function `MP_DataInit' at line 9 [string ""]
2: function `MusicPlayer_Oninit' at line 24 [string ""]
3: function `OnInit' at line 244 [string ""]
SCAR ERROR: could not find OnInit function in rule file (data:LevelData\Multiplayer\DEATHMATCH.LUA) -- FATAL EXIT -- scar/254:! --stack trace--
Restoring video mode

How to actually fix this mod:
find deathmatch.lua hw1deathmatch.lua and hw2deathmatch.lua
Find and change this line
MusicPlayer_Oninit(music_data_original, F1KEY)
to this
MusicPlayer_Oninit(music_data_original, F1KEY, 2)
(the 2 tells it to shuffle all)
((Credit to yelow13 for helping me out here!))

Wait how'd you get it running again? I made the change you suggested and repacked the .big with UNFbig 1.41 then dropped the MusicPlayer.big file into it's folder again and loaded it thru the mod manager and still the same bug :\ am I missing something here?

Word! Thanks yelow13 I'll give this a shot as well!

Edit: should be "Changed later" "not played later"

I've found the bug GSLChar was mentioning, I was having it too. It seems like there's no default option "RepeatTrack","RepeatSingle", or "RandomPlay"

So this line gives an error in music_player.lua:
[code]UI_SetElementVisible("MusicMenu",MP_Mode[mp_loop],1)[/code] because mp_loop = nil.

I assume mp_loop is set by the last used setting? For me (just downloaded) it was nil. I fixed the issue by permanently setting "RandomPlay" instead of MP_Mode[mp_loop]; and it could just be played later.

Crashing on "loading SCAR script" when trying to test in a player vs cpu game. tutorial/campaign will load but no music menu on pressing F1

Thanks!

It's open for all modders. You may use it.

Hello,

I'm working on the Wing Commander Total Conversion mod for HWRM, and I'd like to know if I could get your authorization to include this music player in that mod, with, obviously, all credits officially given to your team.

Thanks,

Hey man, if you could actually add the HW:C soundtrack into this mod, that'd be swell :D

Have you tried putting shipnames into their respective ships
+ I dont have a problem with build menus Its the ship names,main menu and modulenames

@Olkin Lex those ingame music is simple .wav files in those .big packages. there're many tools that can be used to convert a .wav file into .mp3 file

@(TMS)OmegaPwn yeah, that problem with steam hw2 classic locale system trouble us (both 9CCN and Fairy queen) a lot. Anyway, Fairy queen has already began her work to port her mod into homeworld remastered.

When will Fairy Empire be ported to workshop? as I found a bug with the steam hw2 classic where the ship names are messed up in the mod

Is there a way to convet in game music to MP3?

absolutely awesome idea.

@GeneralKong
if you can link with someone who does not use this player(currently not possible, but maybe possible in the furture), then you could use it but he/she coundn't.

does everyone in the match hear the music being played, or only the person using the music player?
