[Solved] Audio can't be found

[TRIDENT_12]

So I'm trying to play audio over the credits sequence...
But ren'py says it can't find the file, despite being defined correctly
Here's the traceback

Code: Select all

I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

While running game code:
  File "game/credits.rpy", line 9, in script
    with dissolve
IOError: Couldn't find file 'music/credits.ogg'.

In "definitions.rpy" I have:

Code: Select all

define audio.cmusic = ("music/credits1.wav")

And in "credits.rpy", I have

Code: Select all

label credits:
    $ credits_speed = 25 #scrolling speed in seconds
    scene black #replace this with a fancy background
    with dissolve
    play music cmusic
    show theend:
        yanchor 0.5 ypos 0.5
        xanchor 0.5 xpos 0.5
    with dissolve
    with Pause(3)
    hide theend
    show cred at Move((0.5, 5.0), (0.5, 0.0), credits_speed, repeat=False, bounce=False, xanchor="center", yanchor="bottom")
    with Pause(credits_speed)
    show thanks:
        yanchor 0.5 ypos 0.5
        xanchor 0.5 xpos 0.5
    with dissolve
    with Pause(3)
    hide thanks
    return

What am I doing wrong?
And how do I fix it?
And yes, I've made sure the audio is in the right directory etc.

Why is your definition different from what's appearing in the error? It says you're missing a .ogg file, while you have a music defined as .wav (different name too).

Because I was an idiot and posted the wrong traceback

There we go!

[Imperf3kt]

Just to be sure, Ren'Py (or more specifically, Python) is case-sensitive.
Have you checked the file is not actually called "Credits1.wav" or the folder "Music"?

I did check that
It's named correctly.

Perhaps show us a screenshot of your current folder structure where that audio is placed?

I think you have to add "audio", so "audio/music/credits1.wav".

That was EXACTLY what I needed to do!
Thank you!
Now I feel really stupid for not realising!
