Playing mp3 music? Created 12 years ago2012-11-07 04:21:59 UTC by 23-down

Hi folks..

I feel stupid for asking that but how do I play mp3 music which is stored in the valve & geearbox media folder?

Selecting CD track music in the specific trigger brought no results. No music is getting played so I'm just wondering how people do it on steam mapping. In the past I simply mapped for Half-Life Won so I didn't have that problem before.

you need to use a wav file, mp3's are only used on map load

Bzzt. Incorrect.

Use a trigger_cdaudio. You need to enter a number in the track field. For HL I think 1 - 29 work and 0 is silent, for when you want to end the music.

To find the right track, you can test them in-game using the console command: cd loop #

(# is the track number)
