Clean install on macOS - No music

[cbryson84]

Hello,

I've installed CorsixTH and have no music. When I launch from the terminal I'm seeing the errors shown below. I purchased on GOG and moved the "game" folder into my Documents. Do I need to convert the files or something?

Thanks,
Chris.

macOS 14.4.1 on a 14" M1 Pro

This is a combination of a few issues we've recently fixed. Can you try a recent build, either your own or the artifact here.

[cbryson84]

Thank you for the prompt response. I'm running v0.67 installed via Homebrew - is this not the latest build?

Pardon my ignorance, homebrew was fairly new to me.

[lewri]

Could their Homebrew-core formula need to be adjusted maybe?
https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/blob/b55d515d2f41107490acd0bff314cd42adaacd11/Formula/c/corsixth.rb

Failing that, we now sign our MacOS builds if you prefer that.

[tobylane]

You are on the latest release, you can brew install --head corsixth to test the development branch. One fix we have made is about xmi files, which is probably the solution.

Homebrew puts everything in sdl2 mixer, more than vcpkg. In theory they could add a few more file types to the music extensions set, but they won't.

[cbryson84]

I have completely removed the original CorsixTH, installed XCode and ran the brew install --head corsixth but unfortunately I'm still getting the same result. Could it be another issue? Is there a workaround I can attempt?

It's a different error now, it's missing the soundfont FluidR3. I'm not sure where it goes though... @tobylane ?

Edit: actually doesn't macos try to use its built-in?

[tobylane]

This is using fluid synth for midi, rather than native. You can download this file to, I think, the Resources folder. https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Jacalz/fluid-soundfont/master/SF3/FluidR3.sf3

[cbryson84]

That done it! Thank you!

[lewri]

Oh, has this been run without this command (in our how to compile)?
brew install --with-mpg123 --with-flac --with-libmikmod --with-fluid-synth https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/a9114e/Formula/sdl2_mixer.rb
^ Edit: above looks outdated to how other brews look

[cbryson84]

I used the command brew install --head corsixth maybe that was the issue? All seems to be good now though.
