Half a year later building with sdl2 and gtk seems to work, so using sdl2 now.

Only reinstalling timidity++ and timidity-freepats, then copying the files did the trick. Thank you! Strange thing is: the lastest source tarball of eduke32(20140616-4516) plays the music faster than normal. LOL But is a problem of the new source code, because yours plays the music fine.

Arch's sdl_mixer contains a patch[1] to use the correct timidity config file, so this should not be a problem as this warning message is shown here, too. The timidity-freepats.cfg should have the last both lines uncommented[2] and point to the right files. Please delete all manually made modifications and cleanly install timidity and timidity-freepats, then copy the file as said in the post install message and it should work. Another approach is to use fluidsynth instead: install fluidsynth and a decent soundfont (e.g. FluidR3_GM), then run from a terminal: # SDL_SOUNDFONTS="/path/to/soundfont.sf2" eduke32 This forces sdl_mixer to use the soundfont. If it works, then you can export the environment variable for example in your ~/.bashrc and use it.

I got everything right, but when I start the game, there is no music. There is sound indeed, but no music is played. I had even compiled the latest tarballs in the situation is the same. Any help? Also it seems that the game search for /etc/timidity/timidity.cfg and /etc/timidity.conf, but the cfg file you copied is /etc/timidity++/timidity.cfg. Even coping it to /etc/ didn't souve the issue, but at least it stoped complaining about the file. Also, seems to me that this file you cp (cp timidity-freepats.cfg timidity.cfg) has every line commented.

As the error message says: You need game data, either the shareware episode (which is available as package here in the AUR) or the full game. Also, I would not recommend using the root user for playing games.
