i have solved the dmc first problem but here is an important problem i have about DMC.

1. i have got DMC to work and everything is fine but when you search for the MP3 in a certain place would that affect the music is the game was on another computer in a different directory.

2. With the DMC would there be a way how you can store the MP3 on the game so it would run off from the game than an directory.

3. If an MP3 was stored on a game or needed with the game would it takes lots of room if the MP3 size was between 4-9 Megabyte?

Please help me!

Tremor 4 has MP3 files (im sure of it) and that only took up to 4 megabytes, maybe because it was MMF i dont know

1. Yarr. You mean you're playing an mp3 from, for example, "C:\Music\game\play01.mp3"? That music only plays if there's a file there. Put the mp3 in the game directory, and use appdrive$+appdir$+"whatever.mp3" to link to it.

2. Not that I'm aware of. If you have MMF 1.5 you can try building the whole game as a single file, but that can be buggy.

3. It would take about 4-9 Megabytes...?

appdrive$+appdir$+"whatever.mp3" forgot that mate.

Just create a folder in your games folder, put the MP3's in there and heres three easy steps

1. start of level - init bass
2. stream open "./tunes/tune1.mp3
3. Stream play "1" (1 = loop 0 = play once)
4. End of level and end of game - terminate bass.

Guranteed to work

i try both of your ways.
shen is this way automatic find for the MP3 or you have to find it yourself?

Hagartech when u said "./tunes/tune1.mp3" does that mean whatever drive (drive C, D,E example) and if some some rename the folder would that stop the music playing?

No just create a folder in the the folder where your game is, then type exactly "./whateveryourfolderis/whateveryoursongis.mp3"

Now put your game directory in a zip file and it will be as good as gold.

about geocities... get better hosting or cut i down to a small loop, i'll exaplain better if you want.

Extract using winzip and use folder names, youll see how the directories are set up then.

If someone renamed it it wouldn't work unless the .exe was in the same folder. Nobody's gonna rename it if it was called "music" cus do u go renaming Warcraft 3's music folder>? No, that's just dumb X). Because your asking 2 screw it up!
