I got the 1.5 launcher installed over the 1.45. However, when I start the game I get NO MUSIC on the main menu screen and if I try a "play now" game it crashes. I'm assuming the crash has something to do with the sound files....any help would be appreciated. Also, I recopied my launcher.exe and launcher.ini from a backup, Game runs fine but I don't have any music. NM I got it reset by copying the backup launcher.dll. Still don't know why the 1.5 launcher does not work however. |

Launcher 1.5 has it's own MP3 ditty system, including main menu music. It will be silent if you don't add your own music. |

That's right. It now loads .mp3 files from that location and automatically adds reverb in-game. No need to apologize. There's a lot to take in, especially since I haven't posted documentation yet.

I have a similar problem that menu music won't work. Launcher 1.5 ditty engine is enabled (in GUI) and mp3-file is in /launcher/media/sound/ditties/ALL/Menu folder. What could be wrong? |

Do you mean main menu? That song should be in the "Interface" folder. The "Menu" folder is used in game when you pause the game in the middle of play. |
