timidity.cfg not found
« on: May 20, 2013, 08:56:04 am »
I try to start OpenXCom with Windows 7 64bit and i have the [ERROR]   /etc/timidity.cfg: No such file or directory.
I installed VC 2008 and VC 2010 Redistributable like i read in another thread but it didn't help me.
I also think that this is not a bug only a thing i can't solve myself.
Where must i create this file and what should be in it?

not sure about timidity, but try installing one of the numerous OGG music packs and delete gm.cat and see if the problem goes away.

Great! It worked.

Was verursacht diesen Fehler? Warum tritt er auf und kann er durch OpenXcom behoben werden oder liegt es an den Original Dateien?
Wo müsste diese Datei erstellt werden und was wäre in Inhalt?

Sorry, but at the moment i can't find the right english words to describe what i've written in german.
Ok. Moved to Master Google.

What causes this error? Why did the error occur and can it be fixed within OpenXcom or is it an error in the original data?
Where should this file been created and what content should it have?

Timidity is what SDL_mixer uses to playback MIDI music (the default X-Com format), but normally in Windows it automatically uses the system's built-in MIDI playback and no extra configuration is required.

In short, hawhabahuhwha?!?!?!?!?!?!?
