Samples Not Working

[vic20-ian]

Gorf and Battlezone samples work ok but others like Asteroids, Berzerk, Astro Blaster won't play even though they load - anyone got any ideas?

I am using them zipped with Mame 2.6

Battlezone doesn't actually need samples anymore and Gorf has many sounds without samples - only the voice is sampled. So it could be that samples are entirely not working.

Make sure that the samples you are using are the .SAM format and that they are in the "samples" directory in your mame directory. Other than that, it should work?

On Gorf I can hear the voices fine.

I downloaded the samples zip file and unzipped it to samples directory leaving individual samples zipped.

There is no sound at all on Berzerk or Asteroids or Astro Blaster although I see sample loading messages.

I'm going to try a full reinstall, could be a corrupt cfg file?

I have firmware v2 and mame 2.6.

Franxis / Slaanesh what do you run tests on?

Doh!

I was being dense - unzipped with path into Samples thus creating samples\samples\*.zip etc

Must have unzipped Gorf file with drag and drop 1st!!

Ignore me - samples work great now!

Donation on way.
