ok so my attempt at this is failing. here is the 2 commands i tryed. one exports a file that has no sound in gasme and no sound block of data in guerilla.

the other causes a error.

and the botom that shows the window with the info for the sound i saved. im pretty sure its in the right format. so idk why i cant get this to work.

^^It saves to sounds/music i believe

i believe tool only works when compiling mono or stereo 22,050khz, 86kb/s. Or else anything else i have tried fails.

this works every time. I save with wavepad, and type (using weapons/smg/sounds/fire.wav (@22,050khz stereo) for example)

tool sounds weapons/smg/sounds ogg 45000
if it was mono, it would be:
tool sounds weapons/smg/sounds ogg 22050

All source sound effects need to be in uncompressed PCM format, and saved as WAV files (like what you did there). It looks like you have a bad sampling rate. Delete the blank tag and recompile, but read this first:


Impulse sound effects (gunshots, impacts, etc that would originate from an object) should be mono, 16-bit, 22KHz, and compiled into XBox ADPCM or standard ADPCM format (use "none").
Dialogue should be mono, 16-bit, 44KHz, and compiled into oggVorbis format.
Music and ambient (background) sounds should be stereo, 16-bit, 44KHz, and compiled into oggVorbis format.


When compiling, you do not need the ".wav" extension. Tool only looks for and compiles ADPCM Wave files. I also hear Goldwave is a good editor.

2 things:

OGG dll fixes and compile with OGG compression (those are wav files not ogg!)
