I have tryed once but I relly dident put any effort into it Ill give you a script that should work,

(script dormant looping_music
 (begin
  (sound_looping_start sound_here.sound)
 )
)

That should work im not 100% sure though but if no then let me know.

each MP map has the main menu music in it, just extract and edit it with your song then reinject it, although the process is a little more complicated then that. Use H2sound tools, and look up a tut on it.

It can be done without scripts...

1) Follow >THIS< tutorial for injecting music.

2) Once your sounds are in, open the [sbsp] tag, right-click in the area to the right to display indents, scroll all the way down till you see some indents that point toward [lsnd] tags.

3) Pick one of those indents and swap it with sound\ui\main_menu_music\main_menu_music.

Your music should now play during gameplay.

if you script it will be every where, you can even duplicated the main menu music and have like 3 songs, then just play one after the other.

use the same one i posted above but change "dormant" to "start_up" then you should be good, dont put the quotes. If it doesent work for some reason then let me know.

*EDIT* How do i save over the main menu clips because in the tut it is very unclear?
