Some Sounds Not Playing
I've added some custom gun firing sounds in the correct format [22.000KHZ 16 BIT MONO] but they refuse to play.
Many of the sounds say FLAGS 6 CHUNK SIZE 0, but I have sounds that say the same thing as well as some of the original game sounds, but yet they play.
It seems the standard is FLAGS 12 CHUNK SIZE 512
So how can I get all my custom sounds to play, and how do I change the Flag and Chunk Size values ?
The ones with chunk sizes are almost certainly IMA encoded ones, you don't just have to pay attention to the bitrate but the type of encoding, AD PCM being the "standard" since Windows made it so, but IMA is commonly used in the telephone systems as it requires less data, though more processing power.
As a test you can upload your waves to a post here, and if they are IMA they won't preview (play) but PCM will.
