this media is missin where can i get it?
Mhhh, interesting!
Let me guess, ... you have used such a test-tool to scan for missing media?
You didn't had actually a problem with these files missing in a running session?
(Please correct me if I'm wrong!)
If so, then this would reveal a weak point of those tools. (Again... I could be wrong, just a thought!)
So, I have looked up AV_Loop.txt, ... ok, this wants to play these files with these commands:
@PlayAudio[tease\opal\hold01.mp3]
@PlayAudio[tease\opal\holdingwhilecum.mp3]
Fine, both files are missing.
But if you search deeper, the file AV_Loop.txt is called from the file AV_Link.txt only, nowhere else.
And if you search for a call of 'AV_Link.txt', ... there is no result at all, so my best guess is that these scripts are there and written but never used. ... -> And since the scripts are not used, the media called by them isn't missing as well.
Coders would call that 'unreachable code'.
Don't get me wrong, these test-tools might be helpful, but if I am guessing correctly, then they might not check for such a case of 'unreachable code/scripts'.
A scripter could have started something, then changed his mind, changed something here and there and tadaa, ... unused scripts.
That's also a reason why I don't use such test-tools like you have recommended me a while ago, ... my Alice project is full of such unused scripts.
Btw.: Which test-tools you have used to get these results?
Best greetings,
