SOUND FIX 03/31/2011 ---------------------------------

Sound fix for my music mod 03-2011 ralfsolo

Hello , here the fix I found for the audio

1.extract the file with winrar or other in your pc

2. copy paste the 2 folders DATA and MODS in your main MEDIEVAL 2 game directory

3. go to \mods\Third_Age\data\sounds

4. Cut/ paste the original MUSIC.DAT and MUSIC.IDX somewhere else

5. install my music mod

6. click on "xidxShell.bat"

4. "xidxShell.bat" should automaticly extract every thing in a new DATA folder in your SOUNDS
folder

5. cut/paste all new folders (2) inside this new DATA folder to SOUNDS folder ( voice, sfx ...src and effect_evt should be already
in the SOUNDS folder)

6. cut/paste all the files with .DAT and .IDX at the end, elsewhere (always keep your originals files)

7.RUN the game (it should takes 1 minute to rebuild the new files)

8.Enjoy

[Sensei Kiisu]

what is included in the rar file, individual music tracks or the idx and dat files?

[Recon5000]

Very good music mod ralfsolo. I was just about to put in the time and add lord of the rings music for the new 2.1 version when I came across yours. You seem to have gone above and beyond and made a better music pack then I was ever going to be able to make.

[ralfsolo]

Thanx Recon , and also you can edit the music how you want just open "descr_sounds_music.txt" and edit what ever samples in the moment of the game you like (march, battle, campaign, loading map ...) , putting the samples in double in the list make them more common to lesson than the others ( I guess )
I add the sound fix for the ones who haves problems with the voice

[Ryan Industries]

So is this music from the actual movie?

[alexis666]

it doesnt work i need help/it keeps playing the old music despite the fact that i did everything. i need help .what should i do??

[Luke_Kathurai]

Greetings, I have listened to the music files in the download and would love to hear them in-game. The thing is I installed the files as per the instructions and I'm only getting the turn change and credits. Luckily all other sounds are working and I created a backup for the files changed or deleted as you suggested. Any suggestions?

[PShmeg]

I managed to get this working ; sounds very nice indeed!

The steps are accurate but a little confusing. Firstly I downloaded the file fixsound.rar rather than the mod file listed above it - in any event the link is a bit broken so I have reposted it:

http://www.filefront.com/17183520/Raf music mod 2.1.rar

I did the following:

1. Created a folder, .\Third_age\data\sounds\Backup
2. Moved the following files:

events.idx
events.dat
Music.idx
Music.dat

From Third_Age\data\sounds to Third_age\data\sounds\Backup

3. Created a folder, .\Third_age\data\Backup

4. Moved the following file:

descr_sounds_music.txt

From .\Third_Age\data to .\Third_age\data\Backup

5. Extracted the downloaded file, Raf music mod 2.1.rar to C:\Raf music mod 2.1

6. Copied the following file:

descr_sounds_music.txt

From C:\Raf music mod 2.1\data to .\Third_age\data

7. Copied the folder:

music

From C:\Raf music mod 2.1\data\sounds to .\Third_age\data\sounds

Works well, many thanks to op.

Let there be music, working now. Adds a new spin to the immersion factor, nice work.

[Capricornius]

I followed the directions but I still hear the old music.

Plus, there was no 1 minute wait (or any wait at all) when I started up the game after adding the music

I'm using Vista

Any help?

[Stroffus]

Wish I could get this working properly, I still have missing voices after using soundfix.

Great stuff! Really like your mod but couldn't get the speech to work properly after setting it up; if possible, an install file would be excellent.

[Darch]

I take it this is dead in the water?

[chriskourou]

I have problems with the voices too. it s really lame playing without the voices. Could someone help please? I reinstalled the whole game from the start and the problem remains the same..
