Is there any way I can add my own music?

You really didn't have to save space by speeding up the song.

I'll be glad to download normal Versions of the music and either host or send you MP3s.

Although the chipmunk-style voice is funny.

Hehe. I was wondering about that happening, but since the first thing I do when I install a new game is turn off the music, I had no idea what it was supposed to sound like. Also, I didn't download and install sox, I just used CoolEdit, which doesn't really recognize sox files. Sorry for the wasted big download.

EDIT
All fixed, you can grab whichever one(s) you like here:

http://www.techno-mage.com/~targa/falso6.wav
http://www.techno-mage.com/~targa/falso4.wav

Should sound correct now.

EDIT 2
Grab them soon, as I will eventually be deleting them. GP was nice enough to offer me space for my junk on his machine and I have no intention of abusing that.

I can't even figure out where or how to install sox.

The OS-appropriate .ZIP file with the program also contains 3 text files with instructions. Read them.

Thanks Targa!

However, these sound just like the ones I converted myself with sox. I thought I'd done something wrong. The problem I'm having is that none of these 3 files appears to contain the voice track with the Cantiga de Santa Maria that's sung as background music in the game.

JK basically told me to read the manual (which I had already done) and didn't answer my real question as to which file contains the voice track. If it is, indeed, one of the 3 falsoXX.sw files, then the conVersion is stripping the voice out. But I don't think that's the case since even the instrumental part doesn't sound even close to the same as that song's track in the game.

I have a feeling it's one of the ".smp" files in the main Dom2 dir. Sox will convert those also, looks like.

Those .smp files appear to be the sound effects to units on the battlefield.

[Targa]

Yeah. I can't even convert them anyway. I looked around a bit but can't find the file with Cantiga de Santa Maria. Sorry.

I'm suprised the sox manual didn't mention that.

Look for the largest files in the rawsounds directory and you shall find em.

Falso 6 - Santa Maria has a voice track. This time Targa SLOWED it down. The voice comes in after a while. It sounds like some zombie moaning a song or something. It's just as funny as the chipmunk voice.
