Title: Visual Studio 2017 & SFML: Where To Load Audio From
Post by: RainyAngel on October 21, 2018, 03:04:58 am

So I am in VS 2017 and using SFML to add sound into my OpenGL project.
 I have a method that calls the Sound Buffer like so:
//initialize sound buffer
   if (!buffer.loadFromFile(filePath))
      return -1;
   else {
      return 0;
   }

I then simply try to call my wav sound file from the project folder (where the .vcxproj and those files are).
i.e. LoadSound("sound\sound.wav");

However, this call continues to fail. Are my audio files supposed to be somewhere else?

Thanks!

Check your project settings under debugging what the working directory is set to.

Also there will be some additional information in the console as to why it failed.
