Hi Guys,

After a little help with monkey island 1

I have a cd version which has both monkey island 1 and 2 on it

If you run monkey island 1 from the cd (on my pc) the music works fine

however after copying the folder over to my DS and using the beta 4 build of scumm vm there's no music, just effects.

Using the same method monkey island 2 works perfectly

any ideas??

cheers guys

edit: you also get no music if you copy the folder over to the pc so its not a scumm vm problem specifically... so maybe i shouldnt have posted it here

   

it's because the CD version of Monkey Island 1 uses audio tracks - the README might give you some hints

   

excellent

thanks for your help

   

I'm having problems with the CD verion too.
The music has already been encoded to OOG format. The music works fine when testing on my computer, but it won't play on my DS.

i've tried that, the files become pretty big.
i like the cd version because of the graphical item icons.
is there any way I combine that with the midi music from the floppy version?

22Khz mono ADPCM Wave files are about the same size as 128Kbps MP3s, and sound okay.

   

first i converted the music files to wav without the proper compression, resulting in pretty big files, but now i've converted the ogg files to the correct wav format, and it works!

   

Well i tried to use cdex to proform the rip but it doesnt recognise my cd

if i use another program express rip i can rip it to the correct format but theres no option for compress files in that program so they dont work either

any ideas on another program i could use or why cdex doesnt recognise my cd tracks?

thanks guys

   

If you need to, you could rip to uncompressed Wav using another program, and use Cdex to convert those to ADPCM WAV.

   

Hi agentq,

is there a chance for a support of mp3 music in scummvm ds? This'd be great as the audio quality would be so much better in this case.

Best regards,
Eric

   

It's a posibility, but not high priority. It will probably cause the game to slow down a fair bit, but as the games that use CD audio are usually the older ones, this may not be such an issue.

So, maybe.

   

You would be better off with the 256-color floppy version for DS. Not so hard to get it going.
