I double checked the .WAVs and they do function properly.

What have I missed?

My guess is you haven't changed the sounds.INI to point to the Wavs and not the MP3's .

However, the problem I have with all of this is that the game was converted back to WAV with all the changes done to the sounds.INI with new WAV files quite a number of patches ago so all the manual converting of MP3's is a complete waste of time if all the patches have been installed in order
