No luck, very puzzling. I'll try some experiments with different sound files, see if i can fix the music problem. As for the y-wing, i have no idea.

dipstick555, your my hero. But everyone, *puts on Moderator Darth Vader Helmet*, stop the bickering in other peoples threads please, and this means you Starkiller.

dumb questions
ok, i'll stop.
i will save my anger for fighting TAW in battleweek. :twisted:

Ok, well all was going well, and i think psyhcofred cleared up my problem, only thing is that BFbuilder is not working. Seems to be an internet explorer error, will try to fix this really quick though... sigh* delays.

What? Astute is the one making this map. Dessan is working on some other map... the party map I think. (At least he was working on it.)

Good news: Maps been done for a while now, just a couple errors i can't get by.

Bad news: The sound is my main problem, i just can't seem to get the y-wings sounds to work, or the music to play. Considering taking out the y-wing completely.

r u sure u r doing ti right?

p.s. This might sound stupid to ask, but r u using BF pro?

why dont you release the beta with the missing sounds?

The sounds WILL work. Don't give up. If it is possible, please zip and email me your luas, your sound folder, soundmunge.bat, and _build_pc folder. I can help you if you wish.

Naah I don't want to play this map without sound. Patience is a virtue, children, learn it.

Yeah yeah, i know, its just a feel rushed to finish. Usually i like to polish my map before i even release info, so this is a bit different.

Ok... i've been busy the past few days so i haven't been able to work with the map. However, i found the root of my sound problems. Turns out i was reading the tatooine file for the vehicle sounds when i needed them, just forgot to change when i needed the naboo music. Downside is that i lose a lot of my vehicle sounds by switching. Now is there any way i can call both tatooine and naboo sounds at the same time, and if possible, even adding bespin in there too for the flying sounds lol.
