You didn't by any chance forget the enter at the end of the last line in the ini file? If not could you please post a link to one of those files that don't work? Thanks

Nevermind, everything is working as it should be. All it took was removing some square brackets out of the song tracks' names I had.

For example, here's how my tracklist looks like:
QUOTE
[Config]
SongDirectory=songs/

[Songs]
0=01 A, B, C, Start!.mp3
1=02 Haru-iro Komichi ~ Colorful Path.mp3
2=10 Have A Lovely Interment.mp3
16=08 Fall of Fall ~ Akimeku Taki.mp3
21=13 Konjaku Gensoukyou ~ Flower Land.mp3
26=15 Uchouten Hen ~ Wonderful Heaven.mp3
45=01 Hisouten.mp3


Still kinda messing with everything.

One thing I should maybe point out, is that I'm using 320kb/s songs.

Other than that, here's what I've got in the .ini file:

CODE
[Config]
SongDirectory=songs\

[Songs]
1=angel2.mp3
2=angel2.mp3



And yes, I did press enter at the end of the last line.

EDIT: I had to add the 2 DLL files: msvcr100.dll and msvcp100.dll. So if I want to run the game, it gives me the error message that "_invalid_parameter_noinfo_noreturn" wasn't found in the msvcr100.dll file.

EDIT2: Like SOTI said. Game works, no BGM.

I seem to be getting this error when starting the game.

You can still play the game, but no BGM tracks work at all. Not sure what's up with that.

Hmm, I got 320kbps files playing fine... In what way is not working actually? Does it fall back to MIDI? Is it only giving trouble for angel2.mp3 or other files too?

Download the MSVC++ 2010 runtime:

[EDIT]It contains among other things the MSVCR100.DLL. Don't try to install it manually.

I was about to suggest that. Usually when the error occurs, it might be missing those files. I didn't happen to me since I had installed it with Visual Studio a while back.


And guys, check your RUNSONIC file and go to Options. Chances are you might have "No BGM" selected.

Okay, I've noticed something odd.

If I replace the default midi extra life sound (Sonic 3 & Knuckles.) with my own .mp3, and then run the game, whenever I get an extra life, the .mp3 loops over and over as if it is a music track, and not a sound effect. It doesn't stop looping until I die, restart the game, something triggers a music change (Like a boss battle.), etcetera. I've also noticed this happen with other replaced sound effects, such as the act clear sound effect.

I know, I was just fixing it smile.png

I have made a new build that has the runtime libraries linked into the MIDIOUT.dll itself, so these kinds of problems are avoided. Download the new version (the old one is bugged anyway).

Many thanks, repeating problems now fixed! I like the way you've set up looping and intro customisation with version 1.1, too.

Well done once again for this, you've got a really magnificent tool here. wink.png

Should you find any more problems, don't hesitate to tell.


By the way, if anyone is interested in the source code for this, I feel confident that it doesn't look too much like a mess right now so tell me and I'll post it.

Did you installed this program in the 'GAME' folder? Because, I didn't and that's why it didn't work even with the dlls installed, in my particular case. :P

Also this tool is kick ass, but there's another glitch, the same with the 1up jingle but also with the Round Clear one.

Fix this little things and this will be really entertaining.
