Hi guys, I cannot get the audio_mp3 command to work. Have tried the
following:

audio_mp3 = [[J:\Games\Hospital\Music\]]

but get the following error: I've tried without the \%s.mp3 tail, but I
get an error

An error has occured while running the callback handler.
A stack trace is included below and the handler has been disconnected.
J:\Games\CorsixTH Beta 4.2\Lua\audio.lua:384: Could not load music
file 'C:\Music\test.mp3' (Module format not recognised)
Stack traceback:
[C]: in function 'yield'
J:\Games\CorsixTH Beta 4.2\Lua\app.lua:490: in function <J:\Games\CorsixTH
Beta 4.2\Lua\app.lua:485>

or audio_mp3 = [[J:\Games\Hospital\Music\%s.mp3]]

which gives me: "NOTICE: Audio system loaded, but found no background
tracks" even though there are mp3's (and only MP3's, no other file types)
in the folder specified.

Btw, the folder destinations should actually be double bracketed but for
some reason the wiki markup changed them to single brackets.

Is the SMPEG.dll library in the CorsixTH folder?

Hi Edvin, yes smpeg.dll is in the CorsixTH folder (located in root folder,
not in any sub directories).

Hi there. Is there a way to skip level just like the old game using command
line?

Comment by mark.l1...@hotmail.co.uk:

You can select any level in debug mode.
See Configuration Options and Location of Configuration File above
Then in the game use the debug menu to change the level

How do i get the "debug mode"??

[cors...@googlecode.com]

Comment by mark.l1...@hotmail.co.uk:

Look in the config file for the line with debug and change false to true
The config sits close to where the saves are in windows, not sure where on
other systems, but I think it tells you in this wiki somewhere

Comment by pass...@gmx.de:

i am using windows XP SP3. I can´t find andy config.txt on
Windows-partition or in installdirectory!? How can i change the path to the
original theme hospital?

[cors...@googlecode.com]

Comment by mark.l1...@hotmail.co.uk:

by default windows hides this folder. If you can get windows to show all
files (folder options I think) then search for config.txt. It is in
something like documents and setting then users - sorry I can't access an
XP machine at the moment.
The game should ask where these files are if it can't find them, are you
wanting to move the folder?

[cors...@googlecode.com]

Comment by mark.l1...@hotmail.co.uk:

the path is actually above here

C:\Documents and Settings\$(User)\Application Data\CorsixTH\config.txt
substitue $(user) for whatever your login name is for windows

Is there a way to open your old savegames with this patch?

Comment by mark.l1...@hotmail.co.uk:

what patch?

Comment by baker.st...@gmail.com:

audio_channels is put in the same box as audio_frequency and
audio_buffer_size, but it's not really described. It has two valid values,
1 for mono or 2 for stereo. It is ultimately passed to Mix_OpenAudio:

Comment by lthenigm...@gmail.com:

I can't use mp3 ingame, there is no SMPEG.dll into corsix folder and so
there is no music!

Comment by mark.l1...@hotmail.co.uk:

The last issue was resolved in IRC by using the 32bit version

@ julie.de.bailliencourt,
CorsixTH cannot open the saves from Theme Hospital, they are in a different
format.

Comment by Wolfwood...@aol.com:

Could someone possibly update the config wiki with information on:
----
#popn[28].Month.Change
#quake_control[0].StartMonth.EndMonth.Severity
----
In particular i was concerned on how to turn off earthquakes, and do not
understand how the quake control works. it seems earthquake is on without
it being explicitly put in, which is a bit of a pain on custom levels.

[cors...@googlecode.com]

Comment by maartenp...@hotmail.nl:

@Westwood These values are from the level files, there's no option to turn
earthquakes off. It's a part of TH and also a part of CorsixTH. But maybe
you could make an issue with a better explaination about your ''ideas.''

[cors...@googlecode.com]

Comment by mark.l1...@hotmail.co.uk:

@Westwood.
In the code there is this comment
-- we are currently on in maps which have information for earthquakes in
them
This would suggest that if you were to remove lines that start
#quake_control you won't get any earthquakes. I have not tried this, but
in the campaign the earlier levels don't have quakes and they also don't
have lines that start #quake_control either.

Worth a try?

[cors...@googlecode.com]

Comment by Wolfwood...@aol.com:

@Maartenp

I made an issue now, however i would still like clarity on these two values
#quake_control[]
#popn[].Month.Change

These values can be found in the finisham level for comparison.

@mark

Unfortunately, the #quake_control command doesn't come up in the .level
file for the map i'm using. (It is based on example.level)

[cors...@googlecode.com]

Comment by mark.l1...@hotmail.co.uk:

@Wolfwood (where did westwood come from?)
If that is the case then you should not get an earthquake should you? see
Issue 1653, Edvin seems to be confirming what I said above; earthquakes are
determined by #quake_control, so if the line is not in the level file you
should not get any quakes.

Are you saying you can still get quakes when this line is not there i.e. if
based on example.level?

Sorry, Westwood is the company behind the C&C-series, which I play a lot;
wolfwood and westwood are not very different. :)
