ccl0 Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 (edited) theres a way you can manually replace the sounds w/o using an addon. doing it this way will make them the default sounds, but also write over the older xp ones in the process. there are probably many ways to do this, but this is how i did it, and it isnt too difficult. 1. find a vista sound pack. they will probably be pretty easy to find somewhere on the internet. i found mine on deviantart (make sure they are .wav files)2. make sure that the vista sound file names match the that names for the xp ones. if they don't you'll have to rename them. 3. open up notepad and make a file with this:@echo Offtitle MakeCab all file in current directoryFOR %%L IN (*.*) DO makecab %%L /L ".\Cab"exit4. save the file as createcabs.cmd5. place createcabs.cmd in the same directory where you have your vista sound files located.double click on the createcabs.cmd and it should run a batch process and place newly created cabbed files in a folder named cab.6. after that just copy the newly created cab files and paste inside the i386 folder. if you did it correctly, it will ask you if you want to overwrite the originals.and there you have it. vista sounds replacing the xp ones by default Edited February 7, 2009 by ccl0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ricktendo Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 If you use my sounds you need to integrate them, they overwrite the default xp sounds with vistasAnd you have to include holdem if you want the other ultimate sounds to install Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
