Run the patcher normally (but don't press play once its done)
Once it is finished patching, copy and paste the combattheme's you want to use in the EQ Directory.
Then go back to your Patcher, then click on the 'Advanced' button.
UNCHECK the Plane of Power box
Click 'Save' and then log-in.

As long as you have the Planes of Power box unchecked it will not overwrite the combattheme music you want used. I have been doing this for sometime and it has yet to overwrite my combattheme music. Enjoy!
This works perfectly. Thanks, it's really helpful. Now I can consider swapping out some other music I don't particularly like... Maybe play Metallica when visiting Rivervale...

BTW, what I chose to do was use some Final Fantasy VII midi music that is publically accessable via the web, then use a WAV recorder that can record from the "mixer out" of my sound card, then convert the WAV to a MP3. It's not too hard, there are a lot of tools out there to do this, some included with sound cards. (I found I liked the standard FF7 combat music and "Hurry!")
