How to add music into your Falcon 4 Theaters by Toonces.

You have to add a file to your theater art dir, example:

theaters/kurile/art/art

Within that folder, create a file called “main_snd.lst”

Within that file, write in text editor:

Theaters\Kurile\art\main\soundrc.irc
art\main\usoundrc.irc

and save as main_snd.lst

Make sure you have the following dir:

theaters/kurile/art/main

Inside that dir, ensure you have the files:

soundsid.id
usoundrc.irc

I copied mine from the Israel theater, but you should be able to find the default file in the base freefalcon5 dir and use those. Open the usoundrc.irc folder and edit it so that the following lines are in it:

[LOADRESOURCE] SOUND_RES "art\resource\soundfx"
[LOADSTREAMRES] MUSIC_RES "art\resource\music"
[STREAMSOUND] SND_TAPS "Theaters\Kurile\music\taps.wav" S_BIT_NORMAL
[STREAMSOUND] SND_TAKEOFF "Theaters\Kurile\music\takeoff.wav" S_BIT_NORMAL
[STREAMSOUND] SND_AMBIENT1 "Theaters\Kurile\music\ui1.wav" S_BIT_NORMAL S_BIT_FADE_OUT S_BIT_LOOP
[LOOPCOUNT] SND_AMBIENT1 1
[STREAMSOUND] SND_AMBIENT2 "Theaters\Kurile\music\ui2.wav" S_BIT_NORMAL S_BIT_FADE_IN S_BIT_FADE_OUT S_BIT_LOOP
[LOOPCOUNT] SND_AMBIENT2 1
[STREAMSOUND] SND_CAMPAIGN_GOOD "Theaters\Kurile\music\ui3.wav" S_BIT_NORMAL S_BIT_FADE_IN S_BIT_FADE_OUT S_BIT_LOOP
[LOOPCOUNT] SND_CAMPAIGN_GOOD 2
[STREAMSOUND] SND_CAMPAIGN_MEDIUM "Theaters\Kurile\music\ui6.wav" S_BIT_NORMAL S_BIT_FADE_IN S_BIT_FADE_OUT S_BIT_LOOP
[LOOPCOUNT] SND_CAMPAIGN_MEDIUM 2
[STREAMSOUND] SND_CAMPAIGN_BAD "Theaters\Kurile\music\ui5.wav" S_BIT_NORMAL S_BIT_FADE_IN S_BIT_FADE_OUT S_BIT_LOOP
[LOOPCOUNT] SND_CAMPAIGN_BAD 2
[STREAMSOUND] SND_NEWS_REPORT "Theaters\Kurile\music\news.wav" S_BIT_NORMAL

Create a theaters\kurile\music dir and put your music files in there. Ensure they are .wav format and name them ui1.wav, ui2.wav and so on. If you need to convert music files to .wav format there is a free converter called “audacity” that works great.
