Music doesn´t work...

thejacs

Hi guys.

Mi problem is: I can introduce the .M4A file on my game (the onlye game that GM aacept as music, not sound) and Gamesalad show it up on "Music comand behaviour" but it doesn´t works... I even can pulse "Play and Stop" on library menu, but I can´t hear the music. (The command "Souns" with .Wav and .Ogg works perfect).

Can anybody help me? thanks!

I don't know a lot about the Windows version sound bugs, but you may want to try and re-convert the file to a m4a again, or try importing it as mp3, and selecting it to be music when the conversion prompt pops up.

I use mp3 all the time in the mac version and they work great.

HI.
I use windows but can't get any sound out at all, in creator, no matter what file type I use.
I think it has been mentioned before that If previewed on the target device, it will work but I've not tried so I don't know.
I'll just carry on developing my game in a silent world

I've never heard of that, no sound at all. Maybe you should report it as a bug.

I will, if I try everything possible and it still doesn't work.
It might be my geriatric laptop, it would rather wear slippers and play bingo these days than play games.
And I think its processor has got Alzheimer's

Also make sure you have the codec installed on your laptop for playing m4a files. That has happened before in the past with some people.

I did try that but I ain't really up on these things so it didn't work first time and I gave up
Its possible thats what it is, I'm in no hurry, I'll get there eventually.
Thanks for that @SlickZero

Hey I think I have a similar problem. I have a song that im using that's a m4a and when I go to test my game it says there is an error loading the file because it is being used somewhere else. Any thoughts?
