ok thanks, I missed the timidity_eawpats package suggestion, so I installed it, but still not giving sounds, with same ouput message in TiMidity text mode.
Is it correct that the eawpats contents must be inside the eawpats subfolder (APPS/TiMidity/eawpats) ?
Not necessarily, but then the timidity.cfg file must be edited to include the correct path.
e.g.
dir c:\mmos2\patches\eawpats
Also make sure that timidity.cfg has the eawpats config file entries uncommented:
source gravis.cfg
source gsdrums.cfg
source gssfx.cfg
source xgmap2.cfg
(This shouldn't technically be necessary if they are in the Timidity program directory, but I'm not entirely certain that's 100% true in practice, and it's safer to make sure they're uncommented.)
Hi Alex, I've edited TIMIDITY.CFG as you suggested, would you please have a look if did ok, especially in the config/patch file directories section?
Thank you
