jmartin Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 Hey, I have the problem where I get the sound effects but no music for some games when I run them using SCUMMVM. The funny thing is I used to have them working about a year ago, but when I tried again recently there has been no music. The games were - Flight of the Amazon Queen The Secret of Monkey Island (Monkey Madness CD version) If someone could help me out I would appreciate it.

Alien426 Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 AFAIK the Monkey Madness version uses CD audio. Did you put the CD in the drive or do you use MP3s/WAVs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmartin Posted October 4, 2005 Author Share Posted October 4, 2005 I tried running it straight from the CD. When I tried playing SMI before I could actually get the music tracks to play without using SCUMMVM, but I used SCUMMVM anyway to get the sound effects. Now SCUMMVM gives me the sound effects but I can't get music at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmartin Posted October 4, 2005 Author Share Posted October 4, 2005 I got a new sound card recently - Soundbaster Live. I'm not sure if this has something to do with it.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benny Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 Perhaps you havent linked the cd audio cable up or something. Rip the tracks to mp3 - read the scummvm readme for more info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmartin Posted October 4, 2005 Author Share Posted October 4, 2005 If I didn't hook it up then why would I be having the same problem with Flight of the Amazon Queen? Also, would it only affect older games or would I have no CD audio? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benny Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 Its just a possibility, could be a few things, perhaps your cd audio is muted or you're playing from your second cd drive (scummvm expects the first drive unless you tell it so). Like I said - rip the tracks to mp3 and place them in the game dir. End of problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmartin Posted October 4, 2005 Author Share Posted October 4, 2005 Ok, I managed to get it to work and boy do I feel stupid. The only reason I'm telling you what it was is because I appreciate your help and hopefully you will get a laugh out of my naivety You were right - the CD audio was muted!
