Make sure encoder is set to "Windows Wave FIle Output" Now in the general settings do the following: If the patch alone doesn't work, then re-encoding those files should bypass the MP3 playing issue entirely! However the wav files do need to be in the "Music" folder not "Sounds" and the flag "PlayMP3" still needs to be set to"1".
#Cannot use freac in 10 install
I don't know if the vanilla install allows for the playing of wav files, but the Grayface patched version does for sure. I used a free program called "freac" to do it (Encoder should be "Windows Wave File Output" and filename pattern should be ""). I was having issues on a previous install with the music not looping until I converted the mp3 files to wav files. The" MusicLoopCount" just reminded me of something. Have you tried running MM6 with different compatibility mode settings already? If it still doesn't work after installing there may be something else causing your issues. The patch is still worth trying on your system as many of the engine updates are for compatibility reasons (Including an updated MP3DEC.ASI). I then installed the latest Grayface MM6 patch and the music also worked without having to move around files to different folders as the fix above needed for the earlier version of the patch. Having said all that, I just checked and the game music works fine for me with the vanilla install on Windows 10. Additionally one may enjoy turning on "mouelook" for a more modern playing experience (Download his MM6 mouselook settings off his site if you want the WASD controls to go with). For example "MusicLoopsCount=0" should allow the music to loop endlessly. If you do install it be aware that reading through the entire change log is a good idea, as there's quite a few possible tweaks which may be of benefit. The patch is more engine updates and occasional bug fixes then anything else. Any suggestions what else I could try? I believe the PlayMP3 option is added by the "Grayface" MM6 patch (Which is easily found online). The music in MM6 is for me at least 50% of the total atmosphere which I love so I need to make it working. I tried to add it there but with no result.


After that I can't get it working anyhow and what's more my mm6.ini didn't have any PlayMP3= in it at all.
#Cannot use freac in 10 update
In game music worked just fine until some recent windows update (win 10). Zden_k_Biolek: Hello, I'm not sure if anyone will answer me now in this 2 years old thread but I'm in this situation:
