==== BIA JA2 SOUND REPLACEMENT ====


I'm Doskey in the BIA forums... see the modding section for the thread

Feel free to ask any questions there


Hi,

here's a script that will replace nearly all merc sounds with the original ones from JA2. This way your mercs will sound like they did 10 years ago  :) .

[size="5"][b]NOTE: 
You need the original JA2 for this to work. Do not upload a version of the converted sounds, we would have to ask BitComposer first if it's okay for copyright reasons. [/b][/size]

[b]Use:[/b]

[b]1.[/b]Download my archive

[b]2.[/b] Extract it to a folder of your choice

[b]3.[/b] Download birdflues JARK programm (we will need it to extract the JA2 sound files)

[b]4.[/b] Extract the JA2 BattleSNDS.slf and Speech.slf using birdflues JARK program and copy all wav files to the folder "ja2_sound" in my extracted archive - overwrite when asked, some sound files in JA2 were duplicates

[b]5.[/b] Start the copy_sounds.bat and enter y or Y

[b]6.[/b] Be patient.... zzz.... zzz... zzz.... this will take long...

[b]7.[/b] Go to the "bia_sounds" subfolder, where the sound files were copied to. 

[b]8.[/b] Now copy all the pcxxx folders to [bia-steamfolder\bin_win32\sounds\voices  (create the sound and voices folder if they do not exist)
