Code rant

[tomatopotato 172]

As you probably know, coding can be...........infuriating.

Whenever I start raging at something computers-related, it helps me to just rant about it to someone else, whether they understand or not. So, this thread is for everyone to do the same

I'll go first. I'm trying to get this JRPG to run on macOS, even though it was only designed for Windows. I'm using Whisky to run it, and after winning your first fight an error similar to this one appears and the game crashes:

This has something to do with the audio that plays when you win. Believe it or not, this error is actually an improvement. I got it to return error 25, which is

            FMOD_ERR_FILE_BAD — “The specified sound file is corrupted or unsupported.”

This is much better than what I got before, which was error 68:

            The FMOD audio system failed to play a sound, probably due to a missing or misconfigured audio file, or an incompatibility with the Wine environment.

 

Now instead of not being able to identify the audio file, FMOD is just struggling to play the file.

That's something healthy to rant over?
