Sound very inapprehensible!

Post by xKankurox »

Dear HLDJ members,

i have a problem!
I've read the manual and i also got it started. But when i wrote in the console "la" and choosen a song, i tried to play it with F1 and it was very inapprehensible. So i saw my audio files are MP3 and i went back to the manual. There i downloaded Audacity and followed the instructions. Now my files are all WAV and i tried it again, and its still inapprehensible. Do you know why its still so inapprehensible??? If you know it, please let me know.

Yours sincerely

In what way do you mean? Is it making a static sound? Garbled? Fast/Slow? Fades in and out?

Please have more of a description.

Did you follow this visual guide exactly?
Be mindful of *which* frequency setting you're changing (make sure its the "Project Rate" drop-down box at the bottom of your screen) and also be sure you are setting the correct frequency for the game you are playing (8000Hz for HL1, 11025Hz for Source games).

For an example of what your files should be like after they are converted, test out these files and see how they play:

Hmm i found a failure. I havent seen to split the stereo tracks and a few songs are function now, but with some sounds i still got problems. If i want to hear them, there's no sound! I think theres still a problem with stereo sounds, because they dont function with 90%^^ only a few of my 80 function. =( But now i made everything wright, why does it still not function??

It would be nice hearing from you.

You MUST split the tracks and delete one. This makes it capable of being converted to a wav file in mono. It must be in mono and set to the correct frequencies.

Well i know that i have to split them and delete the second. I exactly followed the visual guide. The songs I have in mono do all function, but the stereos doesn't, just a few songs that are stereo function. I also compared one of the stereo songs that function and one that doesn't, there's is no different between them. :roll:
