Do you mean the audio in the \Data\Streams folder on the CD?

Audio Streams I imagine.

The audio streams are read off the disc, murut. Therefore, much more difficult to change.

Nothing that is read from the disc is difficult to change any more - now that I wrote wkFileOverride.

Ah yes. Of course. I myself really need to look at ways to use such a useful feature.

Here's an excerpt from the wkFileOverride description file:This module allows you to easily mod CD-ROM files.
Each time Worms tries to open a file from the CD, this module tries to
check to see if you have the same file in your DATA folder.
So, if Worms tries to open, for example, "D:\Data\Water\Blue\Water.dir",
wkFileOverride will see if you have a
"C:\Worms Armageddon\DATA\Water\Blue\Water.dir", and if you do, it
"substitutes" the CD-ROM file with that
(above example is assuming D: is your CD-ROM drive and you installed
Worms to "C:\Worms Armageddon\").

The same file I cited above states clearly that you still need the CD to play the game.
I'm not writing pirating tools after all! ;)

Ok so I copied the streams folder and pasted it in C:\Worms Armageddon\DATA\ then changed some of the WAV files with my own keeping same file names and it didnt do a thing. If I missed something obvious im sorry but your post didnt really help me any.

Are you launching the game from WormKit.exe after having copied wkFileOverride.dll to your W:A folder?

Yes ... I only use the wormkit.exe now cause i use your water editor.

Did you move wkFileOverride.dll from the modules folder into the main WA folder?

That tells me that you use the stand-alone water editor application, that has absolutely no effect on the game (it doesn't even require you to have Worms installed) unless you use WormKit with the wkFileOverride module, and place the generated Water.dir into the proper folder.
