I tried redownloading the songs and replacing my old .dll with the new one from the Nightfall Directsong CE Music downloader. What else am I doing wrong?

I had the same problem, but this fixed it:

Try replacing the contents of your "GuildWars.ds" file (you can open it in WordPad) with the contents of this: http://www.directsong.com/zip/GuildWars.txt

It doesn't matter which packs you actually have; the game will skip over entries for songs you don't have.

Also be sure to play at least one of the songs once you've downloaded them so that you get the DRM licence.

Ehm, still won't work for me...

If I reinstall the Battle Pack 1, SF and the Special Edition pack DS runs fine on GW. However, when I install Factions Original, Faction Collectors, NF Original or NF Collectors I get the error message.

Installed and got the license for the NF pak but it never plays the DS songs - tried that text file and get the same :/

Install the oldest pack 1st, tell it a different location (then where it wants to put the files).
Run the latter music packs (and leave it at the default new location don't change it).
Make sure you install the newest music pack last.

On a separate note... they need more bandwidth...

But following the guide in Comm Works... fixes this problem for me.

Just fyi - the new pack only adds songs to the existing rotation. You sometimes have to wait a while before you hear one of the new songs. It seems to only play after you've been in the current zone for a while. I've definitely been hearing the new music in-game.

Alright, DS works for me now. I deleted the DS folder, and redownloaded the installers. Once downloaded I installed every DS pack from oldest to newest like Tempest said.
