Adding Sounds

[Napoleon the Clown 0]

How do you add sound files to YR? Do you need any special programs? Or is TibEd, a microphone, and any sound recorder enough? I want to give a unit I've made brand new sounds.

TibEd can you you halfway there but I recommend against TibEd for this.

 

1) Get your sound in WAV format.

2) Launch the XCC Mixer and launch the Sound Editor.

3) Drag and drop your sounds into the Editor.

4) Click OK and go close the XCC Mixer.

5) Open sound(md).ini.

6) Create your entry.

As such:

[YOURSOUND]

Sounds= yoursound1 yoursound2 etc....

Control=random

Volume=80

xxxx=YOURSOUND

Replace xxxx with the next number.

7) Save the file, apply the sound in the rules file.

8) Put the files in the RA2 directory.

9) Play the sound using your criteria.

OK, I'm stuck. I can't figure out how to "drag and drop" my sounds into the editor.

It's easy. Don't have the XCC Mixer maximized.

Didn't add the sound file. I dragged the file I wanted to add onto the list, released, and nothing happened.

Did you click OK when you were done?
