custom music

well, i'm trying to put some custom music into a map my friend adn I are making but i thought I knew how but now I can't even figure it out.

HELP ME! i've gone crazy.

u gata import it i think...

and then what?? dont answer in such short replies. I'm still trying to figure it all out, but to no advantage to me.

In WE where you would select unit editor select sound editor. In the sound editor select file import music.

Hope it helps!

sound editor, import the wav or mp3, then use sound - play sound....

ah yes! now i remember! thanks!

i've done it before but i've gone brain-dead these past few weeks :////

please please please - do not use wavs as it will increase your map size tremendously. Find some wav to mp3 converters on download.com

Remember the 56kers on bnet, they won't be able to play then.

ya the sound file i had was actually an .mp3 to begin with.

but can anybody help with the trigs? i've tried every sound trigger and it doesnt play at all. its just a sort of background theme.

here's how I would proceed to make your music work


1. Open sound editor
2. Select import sound (Not import music)
3. double click your sound file in the list, a window will show up
4. Set the first box to general and the other to looping ambient.
5. For the triggers, use "Sound - Play Sound"
6. Select your sound in the list
7. Test your map, everything should be allright.

dont use the test map, that will mess up any imported sound files in your map, matter in fact, never use test map at all

I didn't mean to click the test map button, but simply check out if everything's working.
