OpenRA

Hi,

I have a Dune 2000 CD and I would wish to import the music .AUD files into OpenRA. I tried to place them in the Music folder inside .openra/Content/d2k/ but the game doesn't detect the files.

Do they need some kind of conversion or put them into a different folder?

Thanks

No, that should be it.

Keep in mind, the game does not autoplay tracks whatsoever, so whenever you load a mod you'll have to manually start a track in the list.

Thank you for your answer, -Jes-. However, even though I have all the .AUD files from the CD places in .openra/Content/d2k/Music, the games shows "No Music Installed" in the menu with the d2k mod activated.

What could be the cause?

OK, I solved it. It was about the name of the file. OpenRA in Linux is case sensitive, and all the AUD files imported were in lowercase letters. Just changing the filenames to whole capital letters made the game detect them.

Greetings and thanks!

Hi !

I'm on linux and I want to add my original music and briefing from my french CD-ROM.

I need to add it manualy besause only english version is supported.

Can you tell me where to put the audio and video?

I have tried :

• .openra/Content/d2k/v2/Music
• .openra/Content/d2k/v2/Musics
• .openra/Content/d2k/v2/music
• .openra/Content/d2k/v2/musics
• .openra/Content/d2k/v2/Movie
• .openra/Content/d2k/v2/Movies
• .openra/Content/d2k/v2/movie
• .openra/Content/d2k/v2/movies

[/list]

Than you

It should be "Content\d2k\v2\Music" and "Content\d2k\v2\Movies". Note that you might need to rename things, I know that the German movies for example need to be renamed from "A_BR01_G.VQA" to "A_BR01_E.VQA" (G for German needs to be an E for English).

Hi ! and thank you for your answer.

I rename my video with _e instead of _f (french files).
Butnothing is working, no videos and no musics

This is my tree folder of .openra/Content/d2k/v2/

Try capitalizing every letter in the filenames, like Rydrael did. (above)

(You can mass-capitalize filenames quickly by using open-office or excel in conjunction with the windows command line (cmd):

1. open cmd in the content folder and type "dir /B". This will give you a simplified list of all files in this folder.
2. right click and select the list and copy-paste the list into excel/open office into the first column.
3. use the second coulumn with =UPPER(A1) to convert the first column to upper case. If you are using a french excel that function probably is named =GRAND(), =SUPERIEUR() or similar
4. use the third coulumn with ="rename "&A1&" "&B1 to get a text in the third column like "rename a_br03_e.vqa A_BR03_E.VQA".
5. copy-paste the third column directly into the cmd. Make sure you are in the content folder though! This will exectute all the rename commands you just generated with excel.

)

Yep ! Thank you!

I put all in upercase and it works !

for linux juste go to the folder and exec in terminal
