I have a problem with my mod. I try to edit the eva sounds, but it didn't work. Can anyone please tell me how I can activate my new eva sounds? I don't know where I have to put the eva.ini into.
The voice.xml is already edited, the only problem is the eva.ini

Since INI files are not precompiled, they (including Eva.ini) go in [Mod SDK]\BuiltMods\mods\[Mod Name]\data\ini\. (You may need to create that last folder if it doesn't exist.)

I forgot to mention something very important: Eva voices require special handling and can't be part of the normal asset data stream. Some people have modified the Mod SDK's compilation tool to support a stream capable of processing Eva voices. Unfortunately, I don't have a link to one.

can you tell me what I have to do now? I think just using the EALAModStudio.exe wouldn't bring me my sounds into the game :/

This is the fun part. You have to create a file named mapmetadata_new.xml in your [Mod SDK]\Mods\[Mod Name]\data\additionalmaps\ folder, creating the path if it doesn't exist. Inside that XML file, you need to include all the XML files with code for the Eva voices. When compiling your mod, you need to be sure that the "Build global data" option is checked.

ok my sounds are in the game, but I can only hear them while I'm near the construction yard. I can increase the range but there is no option for unlimited range in the xml files. Is there any other way to hear all sounds through the UserInterface and not through the construction yard?

SoundEffects.xml:

Ok I know now how it works. I have to put this into my soundeffects.xml:

<AudioFile id="Building" File="AUDIO:sounds\Building.wav" GUIPreset="Default" /> 

	<AudioEvent id="Building" inheritFrom="AudioEvent:BaseSoundEffect"
		Volume = "100"
		MinVolume = "90"
		Limit = "1"
		Type = "UI PLAYER VOICE"
		SubmixSlider = "VOICE" >
		<PitchShift Low = "-1" High = "1" />
		<Sound>Building</Sound>
	</AudioEvent>
