Horror Music for fantasy-themed rpg error!!

[The Dragon God]

 Ok so I imported the Horror Music for the new Horror Mega-Music pack and what I'm trying to do is place some BGMs in a non-horror rpg BUT not only am I unable to do so BUT I also can't play them as sample music to just lsten to. Any help out there?

Try to remove and reimport them again, if the same problem occur again, neither:

1.The files are corrupted

2.You're doing it wrong

To listen to them, check the format.  If they are .ogg you will need something like the program Audacity (it's free) as you can't open them in e.g. Windows Media Player.

Just to check, to import music into any game (it doesn't matter that it's horror music, that makes no difference)

Open Resource Manager,

Select Audio/BGM

Select Import

Navigate to the folder where you have your music.

Click on the track(s) you want to import

Click OK

OH thanks guys, turns out I imported the .ogg files instead of the mp3 version lol *derp moment*.

though I think it's better to use the .ogg for BGMs as they loop better... and the RTP files are .ogg too...

 

[The Dragon God]

Hmm I'll experiment with that thx

 

[Engr. Adiktuzmiko]

btw when you said you cannot import them, was exactly happens? and have you tried already what Emzie suggested?

 I deleted the music files in Resource Manager and reimported them. What originally happened was I had imported the .ogg version and not the mp3 version thus I was unable to listen and sample them. By going off Emzie's advice I've fixed the issue so thank you Emzie. What I'm doing is making a more fantasy-based rpg but I've broken out tradition and instead of the player being a hero, he/she is a villain. Because of that I wanted some of the music to be "dark". So I figured I'd use music from the horror pack.

Which is weird because you should be able to listen to the .ogg files if you used the sound manager of the RPG Maker after you import those files... and the maker should be able to run it too since all of the RTP sound files are .ogg

 

[The Dragon God]

Well sadly I'm cursed lol. 

 

[Engr. Adiktuzmiko]

if you can still use the RTP ogg files without problems, then it could simply mean that the .ogg files you downloaded somehow got corrupted... not that you're cursed... lol

I am cursed when I alone had this problem plus it doesn't help that a day or two ago a black cat walked in front of my path. YET I love black cats, ironic eh. -_-

 

[Engr. Adiktuzmiko]

so even the RTP ogg files don't work? if it's just the horror pack, you can always try redownloading... or try the other free ogg files out there, there are quite a lot and see if your maker can use them...

 

[The Dragon God]

MEOW! Awesome! Thank you!

Did it get fixed?

 

[The Dragon God]

It is fine now.
