Well i need to change my main menu music,i've followed this: http://www.zombiemodding.com/index.php?topic=3171.0
,no sound in game,i also followed this: http://ugx-mods.com/forum/index.php?topic=4777.msg53301#msg53301 ,but when i change that music to my own no sound in game,so obviously i did everything right,except the audio file isn't right.

I exported as uncompressed .wav unsigned 8-bit PCM in Audacity,it also says "no ID3 tags" ,i don't know where that option is
in Audacity or what it means,so,how exactly do i export the audio?

try setting it to PCM 16bit signed, i know most tutorials dont say so but it worked for me in the past.. worth a try


edit: oops not paying attention, have no experience with converting music..

I stopped using audacity because most of the time my sound would not convert. Then i came across a pretty old program called: Acoustica MP3 Audio Mixer http://www.acoustica.com/mp3-audio-mixer/
It has a free trial for 30 days and it's also very simple to use. Just drag & drop your audio file in the program and click on File-Save As a- Wave File. Then i used these settings

Just remove the Title and you can choose between 8 & 16 bit. I hope this helps

You need to put music sounds through MODSound and then copy the sound from there into your mod.

what do you mean?

Thats not right, none of my sounds are in the mod folder and all work

Place your sound and soundalias in the respective folders in RAW

Make sure to load your soundalias properly, and it should work

He meant that he need to convert the sounds with mod sound(tick sounds box only in build mod section) and then copy the sound from raw folder to your mod sound folder.

what do you mean?

This is the process if you need it.

1. Go to root/sound_assets/Raw/sound and make a folder and call it whatever you want.
2. In root/sound_assets/Raw/sound/YOURFOLDER, put .wav your sound.
3. Go to launcher and go to your mod in mod builder.
4. Select Build sounds  only. Then Hit Build mod.
5. After its finished, go to root/raw/sound/ and you should now find YOURFOLDER. Check to make sure that you converted sound is in the folder. Copy the whole folder to root/mods/YOURMOD/sound. If you don't have a sound folder, make one.
6. Go back to your mod in Mod Builder and build your mod normally. Make sure your sound is checked.

Should work if your soundaliases are set up correctly. Someone correct me if something is incorrect.

I already said this

You DO NOT need to copy the sounds to your mod folder...

None of mine are in there and they ALL work correctly


Yes you do need to click "Build sounds", after that you have to recompile the ENTIRE map. If you do this, the sounds do NOT need to be copied into the mod folder

Are you sure it's not because your the dev? Or does the sound get copied into the ff file?

Nope cos works for my buddies to

You have to recompile the map, so im guessing its included at that point, so yeah probably in the ff file

For the longest time sounds wouldnt work for me, turned out i wasnt compiling the map, once i compiled the map, all sounds worked. Ive repeated this a lot, no problems

Wow this I did not know. I will try this out and remove sounds from my map. Thanks for the info +1

People cleared it up for me

Apparently I was wrong

SFX and weapon sounds what I said is true

But apparently for music it has to be converted and in the mod folder. Only for music, not for other sounds

My bad guys

Thanks bro!! I totally forgot the part where i build sounds only in the mod builder,even tho i done it before,and none of the tutorials really had that step.Thanks 

Yup, glad I could help. A few months ago, I did not know anything about sounds and I was having a lot of trouble getting them working. Now i'm finally getting a lot better.
