I'm using Gamebase for two years now with great satisfaction and kind of gave up that I'll ever hear a sid. But every now and then I try again and every time I hit a wall. Files check says 40k+/40k+ sids not found.
I've downloaded the package from HVSC website, unpacked it, pointed path to C64Music/Musicians (there are sids there in zillions subfolders). Anyways, how come there are only 0-9, and E, N, P, X, Z subfolders? Where are A, B, C...?
This is really confusing the crap out of me. What exactly do I point the path to?
I didn't even bother with installing SID player since it obviously has nothing to play yet.
So please, treat me like an idiot because that's what I obviously am after all this time.
Thank you so much in advance.
Welcome to the Gamebase 64 forums. An attempt to document ALL Commodore 64 gameware before it's too late!
Would some good sould teach me how to set up SIDs in GB?

you just need to set the SID folder...
"C64 MUSIC"
then setup the MUSIC PLAYER
musicplayers.ini
"C64 MUSIC"

I'm using GB v10 with HVSC_60. Older version of GB should have less stuff listen than the new one, and using that with newer version of HVSC would result in me having "surplus" of stuff, not vice versa, no?
I'm not sure if I'm making any sense here:) I mean, newer versions of GB should have more and more things in its database, so if I use newer version with the same hvsc version, it should just list more stuff as missing?
I better shut up now:)
How painful is upgrading to new GB anyway? Does it mean downloading new packages of content as well? Also, I wouldn't want to lose my lists of Favorite Games I worked so hard on.

Man, your support has exceeded all my expectations, thank you a bunch:)
Didn't expect any answers the first day really, but just a few hours later I have all my troubles sorted out, and learned a lot in the process.
And now the whole thing became more alive with all those sids, didn't even know how much I was missing, listening to them while I'm doing something else is almost as good as playing games
Health and wealth peeps, and all the best for Easter I guess
