I put this together for anyone having trouble installing a soundpack.  They all work the same, so these instructions will work for any of them.

In the first pic, I have just downloaded a zipped soundpack to my Desktop:




I now unzip it, giving me the actual soundpack folder, called Sounds.




I now go into My Computer->C:->Program Files->HTC->Aces High II folder and see all the folders/files that go to the game.  I locate my original Sounds folder and delete it.  Then, I copy the new, unzipped Sounds folder that's sitting on my Desktop(the soundpack) and paste it into my AHII folder that I just deleted my old Sounds folder from.





If I installed my soundpack correctly, when I open my new Sounds folder up to look at it, I would see this.  The original Sounds folder we already deleted is empty by default.  If we were just adding a couple new sounds to the default ones, we would just drop them into our original Sounds folder, but since we are adding an entire soundpack, we are replacing the entire Sounds folder.



Hope this helps.

has this changed?
i noticed Skuzzy had a post saying not to delete the old sound file, it was stickied and locked i think.
 if you delete the old file you will not be able to update, is what i think it said.
 i used to just change the name of the old sounds file to "old sounds, and then add the new "sounds " file,
 since i have not done this in a few years i thought i might get a refresher course on installing them

The Sounds folder(empty by default) and the sounds.res file are two separate things.  Both are found in the AHII folder.
