Song trigger
Subject description: How to make a song work in a trigger
On my map, I have a trigger set up so that when you destroy the statue of liberty, the first 8 waypoints (the starting spots) get nuked. I recently decided that it would be cool if Hell March played while this was happening. So, I went to actions, selected action 20, play music theme, and selected HM2, which I assumed was Hell March. I then played the game (crap, I lost) and blew up the statue. The nukes came down, but the song didn't play. Why is this?
By the way....i tested it and tried changing some of the trigger...i think it doesn't work cause RA2 musics aren't in YR...soo he possibly don't regonizes it....either that or the action doesn't works. QUICK_EDIT
Vanilla Yuri's Revenge can't read Red Alert 2's tracks via map triggers without some sort of modification. Last edited by Aro on Wed Jul 14, 2010 12:15 am; edited 2 times in total QUICK_EDIT
what you need to do is, stick your RA2 disk in the cd drive and extract the theme.mix to where ever, open it with xcc mixer and extract each theme song to the RA2 directory. After that use xcc mixer to enter them into the Thememd.ini by using the themewriter "located in Launch". after that they should work just fine. QUICK_EDIT

I can't find the songs once I put them into the RA2 folder. _________________ "Taste your mortality!"- a completely awesome elite mind controlled Apocalypse Tank. QUICK_EDIT

Thanks, I figured it out. I was being lazy and selected all of the songs and clicked extract, which did nothing. So I went back and did each one by one, and now it works.
Hell March is the perfect song to accompany the nukes. _________________ "Taste your mortality!"- a completely awesome elite mind controlled Apocalypse Tank. QUICK_EDIT
