With my long overdue foray into MaLa plugins (prompted by getting my control panel viewer up & running), I stumbled across this fine Emu-Wave plugin!
And, as is always the case with me, I can't get it to work right the first time... (why is there no dunce cap smiley? This will have to do:
)
I've got it set up & wish to play only start MaLa & MaLa Quit sounds, since those aren't supported in plain old MaLa.
I'm trying to play "Intruder alert, intruder alert" when starting MaLa & "Chicken. Fight like a robot" when quitting MaLa.
However, I get only as far as "Intruder Alert, Int---" when starting up, because MaLa always flips one game up in my game list, which triggers a sound set in MaLa (the Tempest "pik" sound made when flipping from one lane to the next) & interrupts the Mala Start sound. I confirmed this conflict by temporarily removing the event sound for "Game list/menu movement" & the entire MaLa Start sound played.
Similarly, on exit, I get only "Chicken fight---" before exiting to the desktop. Because MaLa is my shell, I have it run explorer.exe on exit. I tried disabling this & still got the same truncation.
I'm currently running the MaLaLauncher plugin too, & I tried temporarily removing it, but that changed nothing.
Any ideas, folks?
Thanks,
