Did you add triggers for it?
If so, present the triggers/map

2:25 is an INSANE amount of time for a music track on SC, and on a bound... So you expect bnetters to download it...

I compressed it so its only like 600kb, and i did add triggers. It just wont play. Even if i click play on the sound editor menu on SCMDraft, and its one of those RGB things im making. My friend did one so i just decided to do one too

Conditon -
Always

Actions -
Play wav.file "Blahbladfjahbabhlabhlahb"

Thats the exact thing i put.

What players own that trigger? Try deleting the sound and putting it back into the map.

Maybe you used too much compression
Try the uncompressed sound for testing.

Cool, you were right. I uncompressed it a little less, then the editor compressed it more, and it got through.

Edit: The maps only 648kb. (Without Explotions)

Only about ten times as much as most bounds...

Yeah, you should try to get a shorter sound, downloading a 600 kb map is really annoying over B.Net... Go with 16 bit compression, StarEdit can compress that better than 8 bit, even if the file is smaller as 8 bit.
