Whenever I try to play certain sound effects or music in RPG Maker 2000 (the translation by Don Miguel), it will crash on occasion. This is not a thing that happens sometimes with all files, but all times with some files. In Yume 2kki, trying to play bgm055 will play nothing, while sound effects such as chandler9 (I think) will cause a slew of error messages, eventually leading to the system almost hanging, requiring me to hard reboot. I was unable to get a screen capture, as this was slowing my computer down to the point of not being able to do anything, but the error said something along the lines of
>DirectSound Error
>INVALAD_PARAM(?)
I do not know of any sort of special properties on the files.
Is there a fix to this? Is there a download to another translation?
Any help would be great.
(I'm not sure if this would be the right board for this, but it made sense to me because the error is unrelated to fangames or otherwise)
