The 2 I can't seem to to work are the Naboo and the 2nd cantina.
Everytime I fly to Naboo, it's just silent and when I enter any cantina BUT Mos Eisley, it's just mummuring.
Any thoughts?

/agree!
Have scrolled rapidly through the posts and it would see that no REDs have placed a comment, therefore, either no reds have read it, or a red has read it and is getting a big red to read it and give his answer!
PS. Gonna give mine a Matrix Feel

A few months ago Ive started changing track by track to increase the musical flavour, heres what Ive so far changed.
- mus_combat_c_def : Anakin crashes in the Droid Controll Ship
- mus_combat_c_lp : Theme from duel of Fates, but while Anakin flies (just before he crashes), wich fades into the Duels of fates battle music(film version) , wich at a specific que switches to a longer piece of duel of fates the 'orchestral suite' version. (2:33 track)
- mus_combat_c_vict : Ending of Duel of fates que (Film cast version)
- mus_combat_d_lp : Stormtrooper attack in A new Hope on the Corvette
- mus_emperor_theme : A longer version wich includes the Imperial march piece a few seconds back, the middle is the same as the original, but the ending changed wich doesnt repeat vaders theme....it does however fade into a changing mood as if a scene switches
- mus_figrin_dan_song_1 : Same track as normal, but at the end a few seconds are silent, then it switches to the KOTOR cantina music of the upper levels
- mus_figrin_dan_song_2 : Again same track, same setup...but the second piece is the under levels Cantina music from KOTOR
- mus_player_v_creat_c_lp : The duel with jango Fett and Obi Wan, except this one is at the second part of the battle wich was cut off in the original piece, Ive edited the climax moments back to the battle theme and its successfully looping itself endlessly without change
- mus_player_v_npc_a_death : The piece where Obi Wan gets thrown down into the pit by Darth Maul
- mus_player_v_npc_a_def : A battle climax point, ROTJ track in the battle for Endor I track
- mus_player_v_npc_a_lp : The beginning of the battle of Endor track (the skirmish on land)
- mus_player_v_npc_a_vict : Another battle Climax poin from Battle of Endor I
- mus_player_v_npc_b_def : Again battle climax point
- mus_player_v_npc_b_lp : Continuation of the Battle of Endor I track (the part after Wicket swings his Rock into his own face)
- mus_player_v_npc_b_vict : Battle climax point again, specificly the part where Wicket and the Ewoks swing those rocks
- mus_player_v_npc_c_death : The very end Climax point of the battle of Endor track, specificly where the Y-wing crashes into the Star Destroyer
- mus_player_v_npc_c_def : battle climax point, where R2D2 short circuits after being shot
- mus_player_v_npc_c_lp : Battle of Endor I track again, the part coming exactly after Lando says "We gotta give em more Time" and the scene switches to the Ewok getting blown up with lots of sparks
- mus_player_v_npc_c_vict : Battle climax point, just before you see the scene where those two ewoks get blown up, one dead ...other one shaken up
- mus_player_v_player_c_death : Darth Maul falls down in 2 pieces into the Pitt
- mus_player_v_player_c_def : Darth Maul got sliced in half
- mus_player_v_player_c_lp : The Duel between Darth Maul and Qui Gon on tatooine, the battle track
- mus_player_v_player_c_vict : The part where Qui gon jumps on the Transport and the scene switches to Darth Maul looking up while the ship flies away
- mus_sunrise_a : Some part of a happy moment in the Phantom menace on tatooine with Anakin, wich switches on que to a different track with the same 'thematic mood'
- mus_sunrise_b : Anakin is Free track, the theme here is a bit the same as that duel between Qui Gon and Maul, but quieter
- mus_sunset_a : Binairy sunset track (alternate version) as a whole
- mus_sunset_b : The talk between Qui Gon and Shmi, with the actual ending que put in the beginning of the track so it fits the game more
- mus_swamp_amb_b : The Imperial 'deathmarch' when Darth Vader says to bring Leia and the wookie to their ship, when Lando objects...and the whole part after that where Han Solo Gets carried away
- mus_theme_corellia : Phantom menace que, where the group of Amidala assembled with the Gungans with their warplans to infiltrate the city
- mus_theme_endor : The main theme from Endor: The Caravan of Courage and Battle of Endor...the Tv movies
- mus_theme_generic_a : The que from Phantom menace where Jar Jar shouts "Wesa going Hooooome" and you see the ship blast into hyperspace
- mus_theme_generic_c : Phantom menace track when they arrive with the group in Coruscant (same version as used in the game, but with the full beginning sequence included making it much of a grander scale
- mus_theme_tatooine : Same sequence almost used as the one in the game, but then the 'Desert walk'theme....as ide like to call it is included
- mus_title_lp : ROTJ track where the Lambda shuttle arrives for the first time at Endor , being launched from the Stardestroyer
I also replaced the JTL tracks,
- mus_space_battle_01_victory : The ending of the Battle at yavin IV where the death star gets blown up
- mus_space_battle_lp_01 : Tiefighter attack from A New hope...the one we aaaalll knwo, but just before the end where Han finishes the final TIE fighter, the que switches to the battle of Yavin...around at the part where in the film you here "watch it, theres heavy fire from that side.." or something in that area. Track is 7:25 long
..pretty diverse
- mus_space_battle_02_victory : Empire strikes back where they went to one of the bigger asteriods, and the 2 TIEfighters left persue the falcon, and eventually collide. The love theme in between at the ending is cut out and faded to a few seconds further where they fly into the 'cave'
- mus_space_battle_lp_02 : The fight in the asteriod field with Imperial March blasting right through ...and a longer part of the action in the asteriod field, untill just before the battle theme we hear on the ground.
- mus_space_battle_03_victory : Battle of Endor track somewhere in the beginning with a climax...where the shot changes from the battle to the emperor
- mus_space_battle_lp_03 : ROTJ, the "Trap" cinematic sequence, specificly around the part where C3PO says "Oh no..they'll be captured. The whole space battle sequence ...to the point of the victory music I used before, but it switches to the Attack of the TIEfighters part of the battle of Endor, the space scene after the battle began on the surface. Piece of the music in there where the DeathStar shoots , the quiet piece is a bit forwarded. The music fades through the theme (skipping battle of endor themes on the surface) back to the 'loosing' space battle sequence a bit later. (just before Luke draws his Saber)
well....hehehe Ive been busy. All in all..the music changes improved my gaming experience.

I'm going to sound like a complete idiot here, but is there a certain program you used to break the clips up? That is an amazing accomplisment you have done there.

experience.
I'm going to sound like a complete idiot here, but is there a certain program you used to break the clips up? That is an amazing accomplisment you have done there.
If you use nero for CD/DVD burning you have a tool that does similar with that, Nero Wave Editor I believe its called.
I remember using it a few times to chop up mp3's but also vaugly rebember the "Save As..." option for mp3 all of a sudden vanish.
Weather or not this was a limited thing with the software, I don't know.

WOW 
This is a wonderful find! I usually end up withmy media player running my Star Wars Music in the background just because the game one gets so repetitive. I'll have to check this out when I get back home.

Okay guys... I know you probably all want this already...
Currently working on a set of tracks for space:
As you probably gather, I'm guessing you want to have the track played in A New Hope when the TIE Fighters were attacking the Falcon after it escaped the Death Star; I have a (almost) seemless loop of the main tune already done, and a victory track (alas, maybe its a little too long tho)
Problem being, I believe each combat and end track plays rendomly? For Example, combat track A might not finish with victory track A.
Anyone able to confirm this for me?
Otherwise the only soloution would be to have tracks A,B & C all the same for combat and victory, it WILL get repetive in that case!
Let me know if this is good or bad. Please PM me and I will read feedback.
Will post a link to a zip file that you can extract to your folder hassle free later.
