Custom Music cutting out early.

Okay, I took a .wave file and converted it to .it properly, following instructions from a tutorial. Now, when I listen to the file in modtracker, or modtrack, whatever it's called, it plays the full song, like it should. but then I import it into unreal ed and then it goes about a quarter way through and then loops.

Any idea what's wrong?

Modplug? :3

Can I see the link to that tutorial? You can't really "convert" .wav to .it; you can embed it IN the .it, though.

I'm thinking you didn't make enough patterns, personally.

Oh, put it in, convert, meh, same difference. Anywho, in the tutorial it said to change the pattern to 256 so I did... and that's as high as it goes.

I followed it exactly.. exactly meaning I used a different program to convert it from .wmv to .wav without the sound recorder or anything like that... and plus, it plays fine in modplug and modtracker...

"put it in" and "convert" are two entirely different things. (I'm a logic bastard.) That, and last time I checked, Modplug allows up to 1024 lines per pattern. (I heavily use modplug.)

What the tutorial boils down to, is converting an mp3 to a wave (bad idea... loss of sound quality, although it might not matter so much for UT, where the music is more ambient) and putting said wave into the UMX tracker format.


If you'd like, I could take a look at the file, and see what I can do to help. :3
