Topic: How to replace Game-Sounds

Heyho^^

I replaced most of the game graphics, so that its like Vietnam-War (Flags, weapons, medi kits,...)
But now i want to replace the sound, too

There are .wv files, but how open them? I thought "just rename it to .wav" but it didn't work.

Thank you big_smile

No need for the attitude, Dani. WavPack is not a widely known format.

Re: How to replace Game-Sounds

but it's easy to type in "wv" in google or wikipedia

Wikipedia wrote:

WV can refer to:

    * Weerodara Vibhushanaya, a military decoration in Sri Lanka
    * West Virginia (United States postal abbreviation)
    * Wolverhampton area in the West Midlands (WV United Kingdom Postcode)
    * Swe Fly (IATA airline designator)
    * Windows Vista
    * wv (software), formerly known as MSWordView or wvware
    * WV denotes Working Voltage in capacitors.
    * WV, prefix for tombs found in the West Valley of the Valley of the Kings
    * WavPack, whose file extension is .wv.

Re: How to replace Game-Sounds

Yeah I found out which format it is, but i didn't figure out how to unpack them with the WavPack Programms...

Its hard to get the idea to do this by Drag & Drop

Re: How to replace Game-Sounds

If your converted wv-files produce an "invalid metadata" error use -r when using wvpack.
And please make sure your input files are 16bit.
