Sound

Are there any other file formats that TGB can use for sound besides .wav?

Thanks!

    I exclusively use .ogg, the Ogg Vorbis format. It is a kind of open source mp3 (which you could also use.)

    .ogg is wonderfully small compression with great quality. The free Audacity program can convert various formats to and from each other, as well as letting you edit the waveforms and add effects. I recommend it.

    MP3's don't work for me in TGB.
    I guess I'll work on the ogg format. Thanks.

    If you're lucky enough to work on a Mac, then the combination of GarageBand and Audacity offers a free way to create stellar sound effects and background music. [If you have any talent as a composer; which is why my own sounds are only okay, since I'm not much of a composer!]

    Yeah, I was wondering about GarageBand. I am, however, working on a PC.

    Thanks for the replies.
