Play OGG file from zip

[Greek2me]

For some reason I can play OGG files with alxPlay when they're in a regular folder, but when placed in a zip file they don't play.

Any ideas? I'd prefer to use OGG as WAV is about 15 MB larger.

Ah yes, I was having troubles with this too, with Land of Blocks, hence why you now have to download the music and put it in an actual directory (which most people couldn't do). I never found a solution to this.

This is somewhat of a secret operation so I'll just download the music files behind the scenes.

Probably your best bet unless someone knows of a hacky way to do this.

I think it's a problem with Blockland trying to decompress the .ogg, have you tried copying it out of the .zip via code?

You can't use the fileCopy() function in a zip file.

Then it makes sense that BL can't decompress it, after all code is just plain text and .wav's are probably the simplest sound files ever.
