Can't get music to play

[Rehelm]

I'm rather knew to creating visual novels. In fact, I've really only been playing around with the software and the tutorial on the Internet. My question, though, is I can not get music to play. I'm not really sure where to put the "play music "music.mp3"" code. Here is my code below. Just remember, as of the moment I'm just goofing off with it.

image bg meadow = "meadow.jpg"
image be uni = "uni.jpg"

image sylvie smile = "sylvie_smile.jpg"
image sylvie surprised = "sylvie_surprised.png"

define s = Character ('Sylvie' , color="#c8ffc8")
define m = Character ('Me' , color="#c8c8ff")

label start:
play music "open.mp3"
scene bg meadow
show sylvie smile at right

"I'll ask her..."

m "Um... will you..."
m "Will you be my artist for a visual novel?"

show sylvie surprised at left

"Silence."
"She is shocked, and then..."

show sylvie smile at center

s "Sure, but what is a \"visual novel?\""

I would appreciate your help. Thanks in advance.

Oh, and I'm not sure if this is relevant but I am running this all on Linux.

Please fix your post and use 'code' tags. By this we can see your code better.

Volume is on?

Is your music in a subfolder? Because if yes, then you need to tell Ren'Py the path.

Code: Select all

label start:
    play music "Music/open.mp3"
