Well I just figured out how to do this, its not that hard or anything, but to new kids like me it took some finding and I thought I would help the other wana-be modders like myself.

Open you mod folder

Go to (or make) your sound folder were you want the sound

ex&#58; C&#58;&#092;Pr&#111;gram Files&#092;Valve&#092;Steam&#092;SteamApps&#092;S&#111;urceM&#111;ds&#092;YOURMOD&#93;&#092;s&#111;und&#092;weap&#111;ns&#092;MYGUN

Now put the sounds you want to use in here( the shooting sound, reloading, kicking, milking, w/e )

Now go back to you mod folder, and go to scripts

ex&#58; C&#58;&#092;Pr&#111;gram Files&#092;Valve&#092;Steam&#092;SteamApps&#092;S&#111;urceM&#111;ds&#092;YOURMOD&#092;&#115;cripts

Here find the game_sounds_weapons.txt file

now go to the bottom and add:

&#34;weap&#111;n_mygun.fire&#34;
{
	&#34;channel&#34;	&#34;CHAN_WEAPON&#34;
	&#34;v&#111;lume&#34;	&#34;1&#34;
	&#34;s&#111;undlevel&#34;	&#34;SNDLVL_NORM&#34;
	&#34;rndwave&#34;
	{
		&#34;wave&#34;	&#34;^weap&#111;ns/mygun/fire1.wav&#34;
	}
}

now go into the weapon_mygun.txt file in the scripts folder (if you are modding a already existing weapon just use its respective script)

change the sounds accordingly
EX:

S&#111;undData
	{
		&#34;single_sh&#111;t&#34;	&#34;Weap&#111;n_mygun.fire1&#34;
		&#34;rel&#111;ad&#34;	&#34;Weap&#111;n_mygun.rel&#111;ad1&#34;
	}

and there you have it, hope this helps someone out
NOTE: some sounds may have to be changed in the source files

Its really simple. All you need to do is put the music into a music folder in the sounds folder, then in your map use an ambient_generic entity to load the music.
