All right, so I think I'm ready to start working on this again.

The mapnote is just a couple of flags on a given waypoint. HasMapNote set to 1, MapNoteEnabled set to 1, and MapNote set to a TLK StrRef. As JC alluded to, editing the GIT is the route to switching off notes for vanilla areas. I would not suggest deleting the waypoints outright in case they serve a double purpose for something else. You couldn't switch them off dynamically without destroying the waypoint presumably. Spawning a new waypoint should add a mapnote, assuming the UTW has the relevant flags.

Map notes are waypoints. I'm pretty sure they can be spawned, but I'm not sure if they can be deleted (apart from removing them from the GIT/script before spawning, of course). I've been meaning to check that to remove one in the Shadowlands, actually. But I'm still playing the game & testing stuff at the moment.

Now I wonder how the text lights up in a darkened space like Dantooine, for example. I'd love to see that when you have the chance - but don't rush to do that on my account. Also, will all of the Star Maps have different text that indicates which planet they are on?

This post is not of the files in StreamSounds, but rather about other .wav TSL sound files (which really are MP3s with fake header; they are located in StreamMusic and StreamVoice). I think this topic would be appropriate, considering its name, though I admit it's been a long time. I couldn't play those by renaming them to .mp3. But there is actually a way to play those files with Media Player Classic and K-Lite Codec Pack. If you use MPC as your everyday media player, then you can install both x86 and x64 versions; in the following instruction the x86 version is used for playing TSL fake .wav files (and also any actual .wav files), and the x64 one - for whatever you wish. Note that the x86 one won't be able to play many other file formats, such as .flac, due to the settings described below. 1. Install K-Lite Codec Pack (I use Mega edition), with both x86 and x64 Media Player Classic players. During the installation you can associate both of them with preferred file types; choose .wav for the x86 version. 2. Open Codec Tweak Tool -> DirectShow (x86). Disable the LAV Splitter. Now, with the x86 MPC, this splitter won't be used to read files. 3. Open the x86 Media Player Classic. In Preferences -> External Filters, add the filters MPEG-I Stream Splitter and MP3 Decoder DMO. After that, you're all done.
