SonsofUltramar Posted August 22, 2023 Share Posted August 22, 2023 Howdy everyone I have used the old, original background *.wav files from CMBO/CMBB for years. Brings back fond memories of where this all started! In changing computers, I no longer have access to them. Does anyone have the original *.wav background sounds from CMBO/CMBB? I have lost the original disks years, and three moves, ago - couldnt find them on the repository either. Thanks in advance Chad 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoMac Posted August 22, 2023 Share Posted August 22, 2023 You can still purchase these games on Flea-Bay or Amazon for relatively cheap. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twisk Posted August 22, 2023 Share Posted August 22, 2023 They are also on GOG https://www.gog.com/en/games?query=combat mission&order=desc:score on sale too for $4.@SonsofUltramar you werent clear about what files you wanted so here are the generic in-game audio backgrounds https://we.tl/t-Xs5T3IDRkn 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SonsofUltramar Posted August 23, 2023 Author Share Posted August 23, 2023 The original *.wav files I believe are named: background day combat.wav background night combat.wav background wind.wav Do the original CMBO/CMBB/CMAK work on Windows these days? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoMac Posted August 23, 2023 Share Posted August 23, 2023 (edited) Mine still work on Win 7 and to a lesser extend Win 10 (minor adjustment to work properly). I like to use CMx1 Background Sounds for when I play Tabletop Miniatures (nice Background Sound Effects).

SonsofUltramar Posted August 23, 2023 Author Share Posted August 23, 2023 Then I will just get the original CMBO/CMBB and harvest the sounds from there for CMx2. Is there a quick link for the workarounds to get CMBO/CMBB/CMAK up and running on WIN10? Going back to Chance Encounter would bring back a lot of good memories! Now if Rugged Defense was still running tourneys. 2000 ME Short 75 anyone? Who else remembers that that stands for? Ha. Its been a hot minute since anyone has said that on here. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the GOG versions they are numbered. My download link has them (I think) https://we.tl/t-Xs5T3IDRkn 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SonsofUltramar Posted August 23, 2023 Author Share Posted August 23, 2023 (edited) That did the trick. Those were the sound files I was missing. And yes, they were numbered. So for example, 00005004.wav from CMx1 is now background day combat.wav in CMx2. Appreciate it. Edit: If anyone else is interested in the 'original' background sounds for CMx2, just PM me. Happy to share. If there are enough people interested in it, Ill just post for anyone. Edited August 23, 2023 by SonsofUltramar 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
