.ogg problems

[bigbadbogie]

i have a serious problem with the ogg format

sometimes when an ogg file plays in the game, it plays through and then the game exits saying that an error has occurred - not during it playing but when it ends

[Steeveeo]

OGG I believe, is a PB4 thing

[TheJamsh]

nope.. the original game sounds were in .ogg format

[General BlackDragon]

Nope,

OGG is PB3 and up...

[BNG Da BZ Fool]

To BBB's question why would the game crash?

[Steeveeo]

Ok, try that again, I believe that OGGs are STABLE only in PB4

[bigbadbogie]

oh great - that means that the qf mod will go from 400mb to a 600mb download

If you have a quick repro case for the crash, submit it. It'll help ensure that things work as expected.

[bigbadbogie]

a quick what?

[Commando]

Basically the .ogg files and any additional files required to cause your crash.

[General BlackDragon]

with a saved game maybe?

"repo case"
reproduction case

In the private betas this is often a save file, an asset or two, and a description like, "wait 10 seconds".

[Commando]

GBD, if the issue occurs in the shell, a savegame can't be made which is why I didn't state a save game specifically.  Savegames only work for ingame errors and not for errors that occur in the shell or in multiplayer.

[General BlackDragon]

yes, but OGGs can be used anywhere, so if it's ingame...

[bigbadbogie]

ok - now im getting angry

i just tested that ogg file again in the game - i didnt expect it to work

but then i changed it to .wav format - it didnt work either

so i swapped it for a completely different sound in wav format with the same name - and it did the same bloody thing!!!!

w....t....f is going on??
