Hi there,

This might be in wrong spot, sorry if that is the case, but am pulling my hair out trying to get msp_lua.xml plug-in to work.

I have set_msp_path correct.

ERROR: Cannot open the specified file playing C:/Mush-z/worlds/6dragons/sounds/sound/player.wav

That is actually where the player files are. But it won't play.

Any idea what I'm doing wrong?

Well this is the plug-in I got. Problem probably is I'm using really old stuff, cause haven't mudded in many years, than come back and I'm shocked I can't get crap to work. I'd appreciate any help to get it to work though. Really path is exactly dead on and that is the only error I get.

Type: "msp:help" to see this help.

See: http://www.gammon.com.au/forum/bbshowpost.php?bbsubject_id=783 for a more complete description.

You will need to get the sound files manually (ie. from the MUD) and install them before using this. 
The plugin is configured to look for them in the "sounds" directory of the MUSHclient installation,
but you can change that by typing:

  set_msp_path new_path

eg.

  set_msp_path d:\muds\mushclient\msp

Can you please use a "command" window to prove the files are where you think they are? Navigate to the directory where you put them and type DIR, for example:


C:\Program Files\MUSHclient\sounds>dir
 Volume in drive C has no label.
 Volume Serial Number is 44D9-94D6

 Directory of C:\Program Files\MUSHclient\sounds

11/08/2014  08:39 PM    <DIR>          .
11/08/2014  08:39 PM    <DIR>          ..
27/07/2009  04:44 PM           136,192 backstab1.wav
24/05/2010  08:22 AM           140,364 Cartoon Timpani.wav
28/02/2006  11:00 PM           171,100 tada.wav

C:\Program Files\MUSHclient\sounds>


Then copy the results and paste them here.

Unfortunately, the forums won't let me do any attachments on forums. Guess I don't have permission?

I was going to screen shot it for you.

Nick,

Figured it out.

I was using playaswindows wine software for linux. It was showing me as C:/ for running mush, however set_msp_path would not be fooled it still demanded home/Mush-z/sound

Thanks for the great software!

I don't let anyone attach files to the forum, except for administrators. That keeps out spam, porn, and other crap.

Glad you figured it out. It usually works quite well under Linux.
