Supported audio files format?

by Isaac Barbosa · in Torque Game Builder · 07/19/2007 (2:22 pm) · 2 replies

I see that sound file, ogg and wav are supported in 1.3 TGB version, but not mp3 -at least I try with an mp3 and my game crashed-.

May somebody place here a list of all sound supported files?

Thanks

Ogg and wav files are supported, not sure about any other types of sound, these may be it. Mp3s are not supported--many programs do not support these due to weird licensing issues on the mp3 side of things.

If you have an mp3 that you wish to use in your project, you can convert them into oggs or wavs. There are many programs that can do this, but the one that I like to use (it's free and pretty powerful) is Audacity.

@ Melissa:

Thanks for the response. I have discovered many programs that do that conversion, and that is pretty cool! Now I can use any sound or music in my game ;)
