Mav forgot to mention...you need to put the .wav files in the streams folder inside the sound folder. Unfortunately, I did it right and my music still doesn't work...and yes, it is the correct format by all requirements listed, and from the looks of it there was no problem with munging it...but I just did it all today so I have yet to look for more solutions to the problem, which is apparently a .lua script issue. Perhaps it's because I'm already loading a different .lvl for flyer and door sounds? It did still give some warnings when I did the bf1 sound munge, though they don't appear to be a problem:

Also, I was wondering if in the .lua we are supposed to change it to gcw instead of cw on the lines we put in, whether or not I understood correctly that it's supposed to look like this, which really doesn't make much sense:
SetAmbientMusic(ALL, 1.0, "rep_kam_amb_start", 0,1);
SetAmbientMusic(ALL, 0.99, "rep_kam_amb_middle", 1,1);
SetAmbientMusic(ALL, 0.1,"rep_kam_amb_end", 2,1);
SetAmbientMusic(IMP, 1.0, "cis_kam_amb_start", 0,1);
SetAmbientMusic(IMP, 0.99, "cis_kam_amb_middle", 1,1);
SetAmbientMusic(IMP, 0.1,"cis_kam_amb_end", 2,1);
SetVictoryMusic(ALL, "rep_kam_amb_victory")
SetDefeatMusic (ALL, "all_tat_amb_defeat")
SetVictoryMusic(IMP, "cis_kam_amb_victory")
SetDefeatMusic (IMP, "imp_tat_amb_defeat")
SetAmbientMusic(ALL, 1.0, "all_tat_amb_start", 0,1)
SetAmbientMusic(ALL, 0.8, "all_tat_amb_middle", 1,1)
SetAmbientMusic(ALL, 0.2, "all_tat_amb_end", 2,1)
SetAmbientMusic(IMP, 1.0, "imp_tat_amb_start", 0,1)
SetAmbientMusic(IMP, 0.8, "imp_tat_amb_middle", 1,1)
SetAmbientMusic(IMP, 0.2, "imp_tat_amb_end", 2,1)
SetVictoryMusic(ALL, "all_tat_amb_victory")
SetDefeatMusic (ALL, "all_tat_amb_defeat")
SetVictoryMusic(IMP, "imp_tat_amb_victory")
SetDefeatMusic (IMP, "imp_tat_amb_defeat")
and here's those other lines...
ReadDataFile("dc:sound\\efx.lvl;efxgcw")
ReadDataFile("sound\\tat.lvl;tat2gcw")
ReadDataFile("dc:sound\\sda.lvl;sdagcw")
and
OpenAudioStream("dc:sound\\efx.lvl", "efxgcw_music")
OpenAudioStream("sound\\global.lvl", "gcw_music")
OpenAudioStream("sound\\tat.lvl", "tat2")
OpenAudioStream("sound\\tat.lvl", "tat2")
-- OpenAudioStream("sound\\global.lvl", "global_vo_quick")
-- OpenAudioStream("sound\\global.lvl", "global_vo_slow")
I've tried it with labeling them as efxcw instead, and it didn't work either. This current configuration causes the original music to play. Changing the order of the setambientmusic section or removing the original ambient music assignment entirely
causes nothing to play. I've turned my speakers the whole way up and gone to a quiet corner of the map just to make sure that the sound isn't just extremely quiet, too. And last but not least, yes, I did put the .lvl from the bf1 munge in the correct place in the bf2 addon folder--which also contains three other files: global.lvl, shell.lvl, and sda.lvl. sda.lvl has the flyer and door sounds in it. The other two are there because Rend's tut didn't mention them at all, but he said to move the (sda).lvl file from the munged sound folder to the addon sound folder, and I thought it would be smart to move them along with it...
