Audio Issues (Mac Wineskin Version)


SilentAge

Recommended Posts

  Hey guys. I've just installed Reborn using the Wineskin Wrapper method, and it runs like a dream. However, some sound effects such as the "obtain item" jingle and all FX for battle moves seem to be playing in a very low resolution; the same way a Youtube video sounds if you run it at "144p". On top of that, all Pokèmon cries are playing at double or triple speed, so everything ends up sounding like a bird chirp. Everything else is working as planned, so any help with these issues would be much appreciated.

 

  Thanks in advance!

I'm not quite familiar with either of these issues.  To try and figure out what this could be, do you mind answering a few questions?

  • What OS are you on?
  • Have you tried redownloading Reborn and/or tried creating a new wrapper?
  • Perhaps a dumb question, but you're sure you're not accidentally using the speed up function during battle (which would result in the cries playing at such a speed)?

@Tacos I’m playing on High Sierra, and I’ll check, but I’m pretty sure it’s the most up to date version.

 

  I haven’t tried redownloading or creating a new wrapper yet; I know there are different versions of the wrapper you can use, would you recommend I try a different one than what is recommended in the article?

 

  And no, the game is running at normal speed. I wish it were that simple to fix.

Ok well the first thing I'd recommend is redownloading the game and using the same type of wrapper.  If you still have the issue, then we can rule out the game as a source of the issue.  From there, if the issue persists, try a few different wrapper versions and please let me know what ones you use and if they do anything to fix the problem.  If neither works, we'll see what we can come up with from there.

@Tacos I had some time tonight and gave it another shot. I downloaded the game from a different mirror and used "WS9 2.22"  and "WS8 1.8.5" as the wrapper versions, as opposed to the one you recommend in the article. The same issues still persist.

Well that's unfortunate...  Can't quite say I know what the source of the audio issues are then...

@Tacos Sorry to double-post, but I had an idea. Since the background music is playing fine, would it be possible to move all sound effects and Pokèmon cries into the BGM folder and tell the game to pull the files from there?

I guess give it a shot.  I don't think that will work though, because the game probably looks for the specific audio files to play at these instances in the proper folders.  But seeing as I'm not quite sure what else to do, you might as well try.  I'm sorry I couldn't be more helpful or insightful in solving your issue.

@Tacos  That’s OK, buddy. Thank you for responding anyway.

 

  I found a program called OpenEmu that can apparently run Reborn quite well. I’m going to give that a shot and see what happens. If everything goes smoothly, would you like for me to tell you what I did so the main Mac article can be updated?

That would be nice.  I personally use OpenEmu for emulating a lot of games but I was never aware it was capable of running Reborn.  I guess I'll look into that.

 @Tacos No luck with OpenEmu. I think I mis-read that Reborn could run on it, so that may be my fault.

 

  Let's back up for a second; do you play Reborn on a Mac? If so. can you create another wrapper for the game and test if you have any issues? This should be solvable.

Sorry for the late response but I've tested a few wrappers before and I've experienced none of the current issues you're having, which is why I'm baffled as to what to do.

@Tacos It is a crazy thing. What's even stranger is how I fixed it: I replaced all of the Pokèmon cries in E18 with their counterparts from the E17 download. It looks like the Devs converted all of the cries into MP3s for E18, unlike in E17, where they're all ".wav". As soon as I did that, the audio worked fine.
