This is probably such a foolish question, but it's bugging me a bit.

I recently recieved a new laptop. Much improved system from my previous one and runs Guild Wars great. Haven't run into any issues, or stange happenings, until now.

I figured today would be a great time to finish up work in Sorrows Furnace. On my previous system, it was a tough chore as being in the Furnace equated to poor FPS and bad lag.

As I left the War Camp outpost, I geared up my stereo for the music, which I love in that area, only to hear the basic, generic, shiverpeaks music.

When I installed Guild Wars on thi new system I only installed Prophicies directly from Disk, the rest I just let the game redownload. Could this be my problem? (I don't see how, but I'm truly at a loss). Or have I simply run into a glitch, a bug, a hiccup, an illness in the system?

Basically I'm asking, what am I missing, or what have I done wrong? I know it's only music and it's trivial. You're right, it is. But I do love the Sorrows music and it'll bug me until I know why it's gone missing on me

Any help, suggestions, or ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you

I'm not sure, as I hadn't ever gone to SF until I downloaded it, but if you go to directsong.com look for the "Sorrow's Furnace Mini-Pak".

Let it install to the default directory or it doesn't always work ingame.

Bam, Sorrow's furnace music. I dunno if SF uses its (awesome) music if you don't have the pak installed, I've never tried, but whatever.

Well, some of us weren't playing when it was first released While I knew I had the pak downloaded on my old computer, I wasn't aware that the game was loading from that pak for the music to play in game. I just assumed it was already part of the game.

Problem solved though! It's nice to have that score playing while I'm in that area

Yeah, I love that music. I cannot believe people play SF with normal Shiverpeak music - it does not fit the theme of the area, AT ALL.
