The music files for AvP Classic 2000 are out of order and therefore do not play for the correct levels. This corrects that.
Aliens versus Predator Classic 2000 suffers from a few bugs. One of this is that the original soundtrack is off by one track, meaning that the first marine mission will play the track intended for the second marine mission, and the second marine mission will play the track for the third marine mission, etc. This pack aims to correct that with a simple fix.
AvP Gold has the same issue. The way most people will play this game is through the AvPx mod (by sirlemonhead). However the mod reads the soundtracks from the .ogg format. So the soundtrack in that file type has been included, too.
INSTALLATION FOR AVP CLASSIC 2000

Step 3: In the .zip file you downloaded, open the BIK Files folder. Extract the contents to the FMVs folder.
Overwrite when asked. If you wish to have the original menu sound from AvP '99, put the .smk file from the

Is this required for the GOG/Steam "Classic 2000" version?
Not required, but definitely recommended.
The instructions for AvPx are different in the included README file. I followed those instructions and it worked.
I tried this with both AvPx and Classic 2000 version. This is not good for AvPx, because AvPx plays the original music in correct order, so using your files actually messes everything up. Use this only for Classic 2000 version.
