  • MP music on Mac?

    I have searched the threads and i am completely confused on how to get the mission pack music working. I managed to get quake with darkplaces to work with the original music. I made an hypnotic folder and put the pak file inside, what dir do i put the ogg files? I also couldn't find a way to run the mission packs without using epsilon executable file to start the MP. Any help would be great.

    Inside hipnotic create a folder called "sound", then in sound create a folder called "cdtracks", place the .ogg files there. Mine are named track002.ogg -> track009.ogg.

    You have to use the "-hipnotic" switch to load to load the mission pack Example:

    Make a darkplaces shortcut, right click on Darkplaces,exe > make shortcut.

    Edit the Darkplaces shortcut properties to read darkplaces.exe -hipnotic.

    Dbl click shortcut to run.

      Thanks for the reply damage_inc, but i am on a Mac, not windows so add the -hipnotic to the end of .exe doesn't apply to my OS.

        OOPS, I forgot I read that in your post! Sorry.

        Can you go to: Options>Browsemods>"scroll down to hipnotic">PRESS right arrow> PRESS "enter"? From within DarkPlaces? Will it launch that way?

                  @drtr3me

                  This is a known bug for Mac version. All you need to do is convert all of the ogg files to wav. It will work after that.

                      If I rename the original quake music folder before playing rogue the correct music plays. Interesting but not a big deal. Finally got my fav game since i was a kid up and going. thanks for all the support!

                        Cool, glad to hear man.

                        Now there's a whole ton of custom level that will blow your mind jus' waiting for you to play. Visit Spirit's Quaddicted page https://www.quaddicted.com/reviews/

                        You can select sorting by date, rating's, comm's etc Even use a quick filter. Some level/packs require a specific engine, and usually that engine is NOT Darkplaces :-P But most work well enough.

                        Enjoy,
