[MODCOMP]Winamp GUI

[Rabbit, White]

this is an emergency. your patch is awesome. the built in music makes me want to shoot myself. I like warlords. please do something!!!

You know the game can play MP3's on its own, you just can't pause or skip tracks. Just go to the sound menu and there's an option there to set up a music folder.

Updated first post.
I finally made a version for Warlords!

Hey--great idea.

I just tried to merge your source files with my Sevomod SDK and I can't link the file. I keep getting these errors:

Unresolved external symbol "void__ CyWinampPythonInterface" referenced in function "void__ DLL PublishToPython()

Unresolved external symbol "void__ CvWinamp:rev()" referenced in function "public:void__ CvGame::doControl"


I'm not sure how your classes are supposed to be incorporating themselves and my attempts to link things up have so far failed. I thought you might have some ideas since you'll know your own code better than I will! Any thoughts? I've been through the source you supplied and my own a couple of times and I'm fairly sure I've got everything integrated correctly.

I get the feeling I've missed a header file somewhere or another source file...

I answered your PM. Did that help?

Matze

Yes--thanks.

Tells you something about when I learned to program. The more I use Visual studio the more I like it, but I learned C with a line-editor and this whole "project" thing is still a bit foreign to me. The code is easy, it's the interface to the code that's a new trick for an old dog!

 

[MatzeHH]

Shall I give you assistance when going up the stairs?

Ok, to everybody with the same problem:
I included some new files:
CvWinamp.cpp
CvWinamp.h
CyWinamp.cpp
CyWinamp.h
CyWinampInterface.cpp

If you want to compile the dll you have to add those files to the project, otherwise the compiler won't compile them and the linker gets in trouble.

Hey, I was just asking for help. No need to be rude.

Huh, I didn't want to offend.
I wast just joking about "I learned C with a line-editor". That might tell something about your age.

[Sevo]

I didn't get the joke--oops--I thought you were giving me crap for not figuring it out for myself! I'm a jerk--sorry about that.

And I'm okay as long as I get my Calcium supplements.

('Course, I'm only in my 30's, but I guess that's dinosaur when it comes to technology)...

 

[MatzeHH]

And I'm okay as long as I get my Calcium supplements.

Yes, that's the kind of humor I understand.
And yes, you are a jerk.

Now, back to business.

Has anybody tested this against Warlords 2.08? I tried to manually install the files into Custom Assets, but when I launch Warlords, it immediately crashes. I'm not sure if this is something specific to 2.08, or my setup/mods.

I also have other mods installed in Custom Assets, but none of them had conflicting files. I have not had a chance to remove those other mods and try this one by itself, but I would obviously want to use this with other mods.

For reference I am using the EFA mod, Civ4lerts, and BlueMarble.

As post 1 says, this version is only for Warlords 2.0 not for 2.08.

But it's already updated to 2.08 and will be released soon.

I tried doing something like this awhile ago, but failed miserably (the main reason probably because I was trying to use the media player built into the wx rather than winamp). Nicely done, making me look silly and all!

Edit: BTW, A browser might be a bit much, unless doing text-only pages. Even then it would be a hassle. The only pages it could probably support would be pages specifically designed to run inside, which basically wouldn't make it a browser anymore. But something like an IRC chat could probably be done.

I would LOVE to see a Trillian or AIM mod like this come out. The in game chat is pretty damn crappy for MP games. If there was a way to combine the game with Trillian or AIM or Yahoo it would be VERY useful to a lot of MPers.

Ups.
I updated it some time ago. Just forgot to post it here.
Give me one day.

[OneBinary]

Any luck on posting up the 2.08 version?

Thanks

 

[MatzeHH]

I finally managed to update the first posting.
A version for Warlords 2.0.8 is online.

[Matt_G]

MatzeHH,

Any chance of you getting with the BetterAI team and getting your Winamp mod incorporated into BetterAI?
BetterAI AND BetterMusic!

That would be awesome if it could be done.

 

[Caesium]

It's been done in an upcoming mod, but there are also other changes.
Maybe you'll like them too

 

[prometheusg]

I don't think I did anything wrong when I tried to install the mod, but it crashes everytime.

I've got the non-Warlords version (1.61).

I've tried doing it the manual way, putting the files into the custom assets. I've also tried installing via the mod interface in game.

I've got Winamp running (version 5.33).

The only other mod I have installed is the gold mod to make gold look different from commerce.

Any ideas?
