Try this method:

Easier way:

1) Open music.cfg in the installation folder

2) at the end add [groupname] followed by path to files.

example:

music.cfg contains:
Code: [Select]
[Title]
media/music/title.mp3
[Plains]
media/music/plains1.mp3
media/music/plains2.mp3
media/music/plains3.mp3
[Caves]
media/music/caves1.mp3
media/music/caves2.mp3

To add my music i change it to:

Code: [Select]
[Title]
media/music/title.mp3
[Plains]
media/music/plains1.mp3
media/music/plains2.mp3
media/music/plains3.mp3
[Caves]
media/music/caves1.mp3
media/music/caves2.mp3
[MyMusic]
media/music/peaceful.mp3
media/music/danger.mp3



3) And in the map editor instead of filename, write "MyMusic"



Make sure your music tracks are in either .mp3 or .wav format ;)

EDIT: You need to open music.cfg with Notepad or Notepad++

Well moving the .mp3 or .wav files into your Sounds folder (or Music folder, either one) and typing in the name in Map Maker is how you would transfer music into your map. Seeing how that's not working for you I suggest you try that method I posted. If you need help with it just let me know :)

When you export the map the music should work just like how you have tested it. To make sure others can hear the music as well you need to give them the actual songs. When they download it they just place the .mp3/.wav into their Sounds folder :)
