Also, I can already see your problem.


003.req
[code]ucft
{
REQN
{
"str"
"align=2048"
"003" // the str section loads .stm and .st4 files; you're trying to load a nonexistent file
}

REQN
{
"lvl"
"003cw"
"003gcw"
}
}[/code]
003cw.req
[code]ucft
{
REQN
{
"bnk"
"align=2048"
"003sfx" // the bnk section loads .asfx and .sfx (sound bank) files, not .snd (configuration) files
}

REQN
{
"config"
"003" // the config section loads .snd, .mus, and .ffx (configuration) files.
}
}[/code]
Same goes with the GCW .req file.


Constantly refer to my research thread for info.

Using the SWBF1 tools is the best course of action for beginners, but there's no reason not to fix and use the SWBF2 munge once you know what you're doing. "Never" is a strong word.

Marth8880 wrote:You accidentally put the configuration junk into the .sfx file. Rename 003.sfx's file extension to .snd and remove "003" from the "bnk" section in your REQs. Also, in your LUA, only load one instance of "003" and load it above the stock streams but under "(g)cw_music".


EDIT:

Oh, and once you've renamed the file extension, rename that file to "003sfx" since your REQ is calling for a config (.snd) file called "003sfx".

    OpenAudioStream("sound\\global.lvl",  "cw_music")
    OpenAudioStream("dc:sound\\003.lvl",  "003")
    OpenAudioStream("sound\\pol.lvl",  "pol1")
    OpenAudioStream("sound\\pol.lvl",  "pol1")
    -- OpenAudioStream("sound\\global.lvl",  "global_vo_quick")
    -- OpenAudioStream("sound\\global.lvl",  "global_vo_slow")
    -- OpenAudioStream("sound\\pol.lvl",  "pol1_emt")

voiceSlow = OpenAudioStream("dc:sound\\003.lvl", "003")

    ReadDataFile("dc:sound\\003.lvl;003cw")
    ReadDataFile("sound\\pol.lvl;pol1cw")
