I don't know myself, I'm only responding to the bug report I saw in this thread. You could check on your location_settings entity whether the same music has been specified in multiple snd_ spawnargs.

There should only be one snd_ spawnarg per music on the location_settings entity, and all info_location entities that should play the same music should use the same snd in their "ambient" spawnarg.

I think the problem here is, I don't have a location_settings entity in the map anywhere. Never even heard of it
before until you mentioned it. Is this something that's been added since 2.06? How is it used and where is it
found Dragofer?

I think this was on multiple places. I can go back, test and report, but maybe it is easy to see in the map file?

That would be really helpful. I don't notice this problem at all, and I just replayed it. If you can note the rooms
and maybe even the music (if you know it).

Btw. I noticed that the readme.txt file has way too much text, so it doesn't fit in the notes window inside the mission selection screen. The readme.txt file has 57 lines, but only till half of line 11 is shown in notes.

Maybe make a smaller version and put the rest in a separate file?

Thanks. I'll look into that over the next few weeks if I get time.

You have to wait a bit in every scene, maybe that's why you didn't notice. So I think the sound loops a couple of times and then abruptly stops

Btw. I was using v. 1.9 instead of 1.91 because the mission downloader crashed during download and so the update wasn't done, but the download was still removed from the list in the mission downloader so I assumed that I had the latest version. I wonder if I'm the only one having this issue..

@datiswousThe mission description in the in game downloader takes it's information from darkmod.txt not the readme.txt. The readme is more sort of credits.  I have noticed the sound issue. It's caused by not using location_settings which were not a thing when I made the map, with subsequent update of TDM, which introduced them as far as I can tell; this is what has caused those sound issues. I'm not all that clear on how they are used yet, but I'll come to that in the mission I'm currently working on, so once I work that out, I'll resolve the sound problem with BM. Thanks dati. :)

Task is not so much to see what no one has yet seen but to think what nobody has yet thought about that which everybody see. - E.S.

It started off simple enough, cute map, very tight but lively.
And then, it starts piling on, and it's just keeps going, culminating in a very... raw moment. That...
That was good.

edit: But ambience tracks cutting off was weird. Especially in one room. I enter it and this tense track is playing, ramping up, making me think I'm about to find some sort of plot progression or a dead body laying in bed and... it cuts off.

      Does anyone actually use the Normalise button in the Surface inspector? Even after looking at the code I'm not quite sure what it's for.

      Turns out my 15th anniversary mission idea has already been done once or twice before! I've been beaten to the punch once again, but I suppose that's to be expected when there's over 170 FMs out there, eh? I'm not complaining though, I love learning new tricks and taking inspiration from past FMs. Best of luck on your own fan missions!

      I wanna play Doom 3, but fhDoom has much better features than dhewm3, yet fhDoom is old, outdated and probably not supported. Damn!
      Makes me think that TDM engine for Doom 3 itself would actually be perfect.

      Maybe a bit of advice ? In the FM series I'm preparing, the two main characters have the given names Toby and Agnes (it's the protagonist and deuteragonist, respectively), I've been toying with the idea of giving them family names as well, since many of the FM series have named protagonists who have surnames. Toby's from a family who were usually farriers, though he eventually wound up working as a cobbler (this serves as a daylight "front" for his night time thieving). Would it make sense if the man's popularly accepted family name was Farrier ? It's an existing, though less common English surname, and it directly refers to the profession practiced by his relatives. Your suggestions ?

      Looks like the "Reverse April Fools" releases were too well hidden. Darkfate still hasn't acknowledge all the new releases. Did you play any of the new April Fools missions?
