Please, I don't know any thing about sound, but I need to know how to do this.

Use an audio editing software such as Audacity to find the mp3 file's loop points. (it must be measured in samples.)

Go into the stage's def file and enter the sample values for bgmloopstart and bgmloopend under the Music section.

Of course, this is assuming you're using Mugen 1.0 or higher.

I use a pre-packaged version of IMT on a 1.0 engine. I tried to loop The Running Free by Coheed and Cambria between samples 1,329,202 and 10,791,293. It didn't work. Does looping require some sort of plugin that doesn't come with IMT? Is something wrong with the audio file?

I've never encountered anything like that before.  It sound like it should be looping.
I've got no idea if there's some pluggin required for looping.
Looping works fine in regular 1.0 as far as I know, not sure if there's something in the prepackaged Mugen that's messing things up.

Try creating a simple loop with a different audio file and see if that works.

--------

A thought just occured to me.
Did you enter those sample values with those commas?
Try getting rid of the commas and see if that works.

No, I didn't insert commas into the DEF file. I still have no clue what may be causing this...
