I just tested a few with this snippet and they ran fine.




does the midi play in quicktime or another audio playing program?
re install your sound card drivers if it doesnt.

DB might not like that midi file so inspect the midi file in case theres something obvious DB doesnt like.

If no-one gives your an answer to a question you have asked, consider:- Is your question clear.- Did you ask nicely.- Are you showing any effort to solve the problem yourself

Osirius, when loading things such as objects and music, you have to make sure that the ending of the filename is correct (.JPG,.X,.MID). In your code you tried to load the music with a .MIDI ending. You should load it like this, With a .MID ending:



this should work, although I'm not sure why indi didn't spot this. Hope it works .

how about giving us a download link to it then, so that we can test it for ourselves, and then make code that does work?

Ok I have Dbpro. I am not very good at programming yet in fact i am still learning the language. Anyways I am having the same problem as Osirus. It says that darkbasic cannot load the midi file. Can you give me any steps on how to load music? Like if I need to put it in a special folder or something. Secondly Could you also give me source code on how to load the music? It would help me very much thanx.

I am a newb at DbasicPro creator.
