Need some help for my project. I need to compile sound tags but I don't know what the correct command is nor the proper format. I guess from looking at some sound tags in guerrilla that they need to be OGG WAV or xbox formats. I have no idea how to make them OGG or .xbox.

I am also not sure if the command is ''sound'' or ''sounds''

i think most people recommend using tool++ for sound compiling because it's so much easier, i think you can find it here on halomaps.

Umm... Will it tell me what I need?

tool++ has a user interface so you can choose all the options instead of having to type everything yourself.

I take it I put the sounds in the data folder?

OK well I think tool++ might actually be good for sommat...

and, yes, put the sounds in your data\whatever folder.

Create a sound using mono 16-bit .wav at 22050 bitrate.
Place it in a folder. I' gonna use sound\test\testsound.wav
In tool, type:
tool sounds sound\test 0 ogg
or
tool sounds sound\test 1 ogg
I never really get a difference with either of these.
Then in Guerrilla, just edit the tag to look like another on in the sound folder.
Hope this helps

I will try that next. Tool++ is useless for me because it never does anything at all. Or I am doing it wrong or sommat...

Umm you say the sound is a WAV but you put ogg


H:\Progr...ition)tool sounds
Couldn't read map file './toolbeta.map'
usage: tool verb (options...)
sounds directory-name platform(xbox,wav,ogg) ogg_only_value_flag
(quality or bitrate)

that is what it says. tool sounds sound\test 1 ogg wouldn't be a valid command... I think.

Never mind.

tool sounds sound\test ogg 1 is what it would be.

OK thanks.
