No music in FF8
« on: 2011-02-27 16:52:05 »
Oh geez, I don't know what's going on and I've played around with everything for about 2 hours now. It was working just fine a few days ago. I get SFX and everything, just no music. And I get a "Failed!" message when I try playing the .sgt files in FF8Configurator (with every MIDI driver and sound device I have), I even ended up downloading some codecs and still, nothing. Anyone have any idea what's going on? I've tried reinstalling FF8 and restarting my computer too.

Is the DLS file in the same directory as the sgt files? There's no need for that configurator anymore anyways.

Yeah, it is. And what do you mean? I thought that was the only way to get the game to use another MIDI device?

No. In fact, there are many ways to use another MIDI device but I never used them since the default ont is already good.
