Title: Help
Post by: hodag on December 07, 2008, 02:20:33 AM

Let me start by saying I have searched and I can't find the answer to this. If it has been addressed I apologize ahead of time. I am trying to install a sound pack. As i understand it all I have to do is go into the htc/ah2 folder and replace the sounds folder. The problem is, there isn't a sounds folder. All that shows up (for folders) are; ahiiterr, maps, offmiss, sights and stickdef. There are files, including one called sounds.res. I have no idea what to do. I am running Vista. I was thinking that maybe the other folders were hidden or something. I would really appreciate any help anyone might have. I have a feeling this is prob something I should know but don't. Thanks..

name your folder "Sounds"

if there's another one, overwrite it.

Vista does apparently hide some folders.   Check out this tech support topic - it has some workarounds dealing with where Vista stores folders.    Maybe that's what happened to your sounds folder.
