Adding backround music to hl2 dm levels?

[[A]uthority]

Hey, how do you add backround music in half life 2 deathmatch levels? Me and xdiesp are going further with substance by making a multiplayer mod. I got most of the stuff down, but I'm lost right now with the music. Help is much appreciated and we'll be sure to give you credit.

Use an ambient generic with 'play everywhere' ticked.

Where do you find ambient generic?

Its in the entities list. Click the entity tool in Hammer, and on the list to the right, scroll down and you should see it.

eh... how do you ADD music files? i only see the game sounds on the ambient_generic....

I believe that you can browse for them somehow.

If that doesnt work then I guess its just like with everything else, you have to put your sound files in the exact right positions for hammer ti take notice of them and use them ingame...
