Cannot select a specific song

[Vamp]

I've got HLDJ running properly, the CFG loads & the songs play in-game perfectly. However, the command hldj_select_file (hldjsf) doesn't work for me... and considering that I have well over 100 different audio files in my folder, using the next/previous commands (which do work) is really slow and inefficient for me.

I've tried typing hldjsf number, hldjsf filename, etc... it doesn't work. All that happens when i select a file is that it creates some randomly named cfg file

ie:

] hldjsf 100
Host_WriteConfiguration: Wrote cfg/hldj_selp.cfg

However when I press my playaudio button, the song has not changed.

hldjsf is only used when performing a search or in other advanced commands; selecting a song normally requires you only to enter the song number in console (hldjsf or hldjsd will automatically be called for you).

When you need to call it manually is if you do a search, like so:

Code: Select all

bind = "some file name"; hldjsf

You can check out the syntax of commands by entering "hldj1" in console.

Well I've tried that too, like

"100" in the console to select song # 100 ? That doesn't work at all, i just get unknown command. I've read all the hldj help things, including the html files in the hldj folder. I am in the right directory, my songs all appear when i type la or listaudio, but i cannot select any by typing a specific number... could you give me an example of exactly what you would type in the console to select say, song 1?

Because from what I understand it's either "hldjsf 1" or "1", neither work.

The normal way:

Code: Select all

1

or, the long way:

Code: Select all

bind = 1; hldjsf

Which command is unknown? "1", or "hldjsf" or some other command called thereafter?
Also, for the first method make sure "quick-select" hasn't been disabled in Setup (Advanced).

Ah, quick select! I had it disabled, thus the issue. Thanks for that.
