Unexpected Failure while importing Wave files with de MGPipelineTool

Lufen34 · May 19, 2018, 12:45pm

Hello guys!

I decided to stop dev on Windows and work on Linux ( Pop!_Os) and I am actually using Visual studio Code for my project.

My problem appears when I try to execute my program. “error : Importer ‘WavImporter’ had unexpected failure” which is actually weird since he was able to build without any problems.

I really would appreciate if someone could help me to deal with this. I saw on forums that it could be a right issue but even after giving full rights to all the folder and subfolders it seems to still not work. Here is the full error :

It really blocks only with Sound files.

harry-cpp · May 19, 2018, 9:31pm

hmmm, try doing:

chmod +x /home/lufen/.nuget/packages/monogame.content.builder/3.7.0.4/build/MGCB/build/ffprobe

harry-cpp · May 19, 2018, 9:41pm

You’ll probably need to do the following command as well:

chmod +x /home/lufen/.nuget/packages/monogame.content.builder/3.7.0.4/build/MGCB/build/ffmpeg

Hello, thanks a MILLION for your answer! Even after the command I keep having the same error but the difference is that if I press “Debog anyway” my game shows up (without the sound / music sadly)

Edit : I didn’t saw the second command line. Thanks, I don’t have the error anymore but now the whole game dissapeared and I have only a blue screen like my code has been ignored lol

Edit 2 : Problem solved It was a misconfiguration of mine, thanks a lot ! I swear if you was here I’ll pay you a beer !

I’ve run into to the same problem, but I don’t know how I can execute the command.
Do I have to type it in the windows command line or somewhere else?
Here is the error im getting:
