S! All,
I have been doing alot of wav editing lately and I need some serious help with slotting my sounds into EAW. I have used the snd2raw and raw2snd programs but my sounds keep causing the game to crash. After I have put one of my sound files into the main EAW directory and attempt to start the game, I get the message, "Failed to alloc DS Buffer, snd0010.snd" What am I doing wrong??

I have looked through the EAw archives and found some good threads on this topic but I still can't seem to get things right. I appreciate any help that you can send my way. Thanks!
DD, Rgr Out

Could be recorded in the wrong format... not sure what it's suppose to be, but I think I remember reading 22KHZ PCM??

Hmmmm..

Try recording the sounds (or converting) to 44,000Hz, 16 bit, in wav format. Then rename the filename.wav to filename.snd

I *think* that is the way you do it.. Like with the barracks music..
