  • Wav's for the deaf!

    Playing with the sound off, I'm pretty ignorant of wav files in ToT.

    Where can I find wav files for these Great War units: Gunboat flotilla, Destroyer flotilla, Monitor flotilla, Transports, Cruiser division, U-Boat?

    When are wav's used: when moving, attacking, or defending?

    Any tricks to using the PlayWaveFile action pretty in events?

    • It's worth plundering Curt's Dictator and Tech's Warlords for naval and aircraft sounds.

      • Thanks!

        Sounds.zip from SL Wiki seems to be corrupt for me. Anyone else have problems?

        • Wav format?

          What wav format do I need to use for Events.txt?

          Code:
          @IF  UnitKilled  
          unit=Syrians  
          attacker=Entente Allies  
          defender=Turks  
          @THEN  
          JustOnce  
          PlayWaveFile  
          LoATitle.wav  
          Text  
          After crossing the ‘impassable’ Sinai, Turks surprise outposts on the Suez!  
          EndText  
          @ENDIF
          When the Syrians is eliminated, I get a error message "This Sound format is not supported". Otherwise the code executes as expected.

          • It should be 22,050Hz 8-bit mono PCM. That file is 8,000Hz.

            • Thanks! Know of any freeware that will convert it?

              • Well, the standard Windows sound recorder can. I actually just did that myself. I thought about uploading that, but the sound quality of the conversion is awful. The quality of the original isn't great to begin with.

                I don't think other converters will fare much better, simply because you're going from 8kHz to 22kHz.

                Do you (or anyone else here) have the Lawrence of Arabia DVD or soundtrack? Perhaps someone can record/rip that piece?

                    • I'm really sorry for the poor communication, but that's an unadvertized beta with a few known flaws, including the very minor one that you note. I'll try to send the corrected beta to Techumseh today and start a new thread. The primary source of the beta will be through Techumseh's village. I've been a little inept with the SL Wiki.

                      • Have a look at kobayashi's thread... He's been figuring it out himself to add his scenarios.
