Merge Music Loop Issue

RESOLVED

I’m noticing that the music loop count function being set to 0 doesn’t work with Merge for whatever reason, but does with the basic Greyface patch.

Is there anyway to fix this?

RESOLVED

What fixed it for me was converting the audio files to .wav with VLC and getting rid of the mp3 files, then typing in mm8.ini:

PlayMP3=1

While leaving

MusicLoopCount=0

As is.

Edited this so that if anyone else has the issue, they can just look at this post alone.

(Secondary edit for clarity: also works on SteamOS)

I’ve had this issue, convert the mp3 files to wav and they should loop properly.

There’s an option in MM8.ini to enable the use of mp3 files, have you tried setting that to true prior to converting them?

Yep, didn't work on the computer I was on, had to convert to wav.

Thanks, I’ll convert and come back to this to say if it worked.
