sound effect dont work

Post by Skywolf »

hello, i try to make my own sound effect, but every time i import the .wav file happens nothing! i get an windows where i can typ the name op the package and when i press ok i get an list of every sound i have loaded but without my sound :'( any idea what i do wrong?
i think it is the sample rate or something like that, but how can i change that?
I hate it when people ask me what my favorite game is. Just try to explain you're not talking about Unreal Tournament ::).

The path to the sound file shouldn't have any spaces in it, try to put your sound in a folder like C:\Sounds or ~/Sounds (never used UEd on Linux though, maybe it doesn't have that problem there).

If it still doesn't work, or you have no spaces, then yeah, you need to change sampling rate, etc. And how to do so depends on the program you're using. So if the first method doesn't work, tell me what program do you have, or if you find the setting, change it from whatever to 22050 Hz or less, 8 bits and 1 channel. But I still think it's the path problem, I've imported sounds that are over 44100 Hz, 16 bits and 2 channels and it always worked.
