Hi nbotero,

the truth is: you can't play MOD files in rev.

See "play" in the docs (Rev Dictionary) to see what audio formats are supported in Rev:
Only uncompressed AIFF and WAVE files and the AU format.
Even using a player object (QuickTime) can't play a MOD file.

So you need to convert the file(s) somehow to a Rev (or QuickTime) compatible format.

Best

You could use xmp and mikmod via the command line.
