First of all, I know how to loop music already, but in this case, there is a messup. I'm trying to add some boss music (divided into sections) for my game and heres what happens: Boss Music-1.wav plays successfully but then there is a 10 or so second pause before it starts playing Boss Music-2.wav, then it successfully plays without skipping from 2-5. 5.wav loops back to 1.wav and then everythings okay, there is no pause after 1.wav. Why is there a pause the first time it plays Boss Music-1.wav? Here are my triggers: (I apologize if I made them sloppily or added an unneeded trigger, just want to make sure you get all info needed)
This goes up to Boss Battle-5.wav which is death count set to exactly 11, then it cycles back to death 7 for loop. (Same conditions and triggers except for death count +1 each time and playing next .wav each time)
Really want to get this to work, please help.

-without reading your triggers
Your waits are stacking. Look at your trigger list(s) for conflicting waits.

Also if there is still a problem, which I am sure it is probably wait blocks.
Look at this tutorial for music looping. A few ways

just try to run the waits for a computer that doesnt have any waits instead of the human. also, try finding a beter triger owner than "all players" because then that will cause wait blocks for everyone jsut about.

Problem solved. New problem arises but not in the same category. Now I want to create 5 different Quick Mans on 5 different locations. Heres what I did, I can't really see a problem with it, but it creates 4 of Quick Man on each location for some reason but I only want it to create 1:

Oh, thanks. Didn't come across that tutorial.
ADDITION:
I can't believe the problems I'm having making this RPG. Problem #3: Wavs won't play. Here are my triggers: (Agggh, again!
)
As before, this goes up to Stage-5.wav then loops. Sorry about all this, this is my first SC Map.

Are you saying all the wavs won't? Or are you saying 'Select.wav' will play but the rest won't?
If all of them won't, check to make sure the wavs actually are in the map.
If 'Select.wav' will play and the rest won't is probably caused by wait blocks.

Select.wav works, and I also have some music in the beginning that works for stage selection, but then when I go onto the beacon for Quick Mans level and try to use those triggers above, the music doesn't play.

Do you have any waits in another other triggers?
It would help if you posted your map.

I'd post my map, but I'm afraid that someone might steal credit for it. Is there a way I can send it to you?
