Help! No Music!

[Mr Clean]

Help! I get the sfx but i don't get any music on ANY of the quests. Move if needed.

here's what I collected up when I had that problem.
sorry it's kind of a mess and maybe even confusing, I just threw posts into a notepad and saved them


If you run AG setup.exe, then go to midi driver, it'll ask you for your sound card and give you a list. If yours isn't on the list, it's not compatible.

Okay, don't mess with the patches and such... leave them at default. Try changing your midi device to either "MPU-401" or "Midi Out". Don't use auto-detect: it'll usually give the generic "Adlib" option, which is probably what the problem is.

Thank you Overdrive it worked!

Ok Tudorcat this is what you should do!

1-Go into AGSetup
2-Go to Digital Driver
3-Click on Generic SB
4-Listen to what the bottom screen says and set everything to what the "usually" is.
5-Click ok
6-Go to the other sound option
7-Select MPU-401
8-Select everything to what the bottom screen says
9-Click ok, save the changes.
10-Run Zelda

Boomaster choose MPU-401 anyway. Let me tell you that I don't have a Generic SB or MPU-401 but it worked. Choose it anyway then in the options screen set the stuff to what the bottom screen says. Click ok, and run Zelda.

If this doesn't work just keep playing around with all the sound cards and save. Eventually something should work. After trying a sound card imediately set the options and save and run Zelda.

DON'T DO A SOUND TEST IN AGSETUP, IT WILL FAIL!

DO A SOUND TEST ONLY IN THE ZELDA GAME!

--------------------------
what I did for mine
--------------------------

set Digital Driver to "Soundblaster Pro" and "usual" settings as instructed by the Agsetup.exe
set Midi Driver to "Adlib (opl2) and "usual" settings.

Freedom I was in a hurry to read your message but while I was playing Zelda player is suddenly stopped playing music. The SFX worked but no music.

[Freedom]

that's what it was doing for me when I had the 190, since then I've set them up to start with, without waiting for it to freeze my sound card up, so I can't say for sure that it would be the same in a beta and lose sound after a few minutes playing, but I would guess it would.

I never had this problem with the 192b184 player and also dont have the problem with the Alpha 3 or Alpha 4 that has been released to the beta testers, so the problem may be fixed.

the post above about how to fix it applies to you too.

Some music are not looped, so when it ends, the music won't replay again...it all depends on whether the quest maker enabled the loop in the Midi in ZQuest.
