Exult on Mandrake 9.2

Post by CarlJF »

Hi guys,

Just to let you know that I've tried the Red Hat rpm on Mandrake 9.2 and it works quite well. So, it may be nice to rename it to RedHat/Mandrake, just to let people know that the rpm also works with Mandrake.

I'm not sure if these are bugs, but I had some minor problems with sound.

First, to play the Digital ones, I had to change the exult.cfg and add

digital


Also had to change the "gm" in convert for digital. If only changed it in the menu, it makes the music stop working in BG. However, it was OK in SI.... Kind of strange...

Also, I'm not able to make the music loop. No matter if I add the option in the exult.cfg or try to change it in the audio menu.

Everything else works great. Nice job guys and keep up the good work!

With newer code doesn't need to be changed. Unfortunately you were stuck with an incomplete documentation and the one found here on the website is already only covering the slight changes and is not very correct for the last beta... Sorry, but glad you managed to get it to work.

As for the looping there might be something related to playing the muisc digital, but not sure...
