"Bad Wave Format" - Error

[SlevinKelevra]

Hey Chili,

after some years break I am back to your tutorials. Currently I am coding some stuff for the Fart-Annoyed game (will maybe create a thread soon, when there is something to show). My problem is, that I am getting errors when addding (some) wave sounds:

"bad wave format (nChannels)".

Is there a way to use these sounds? If no, can you or someone else suggest a free wave sound page, with sounds, which work in chilis framework?

I found a workaround:

Loading wave files and converting them to wave again makes them usable in chilis framework.

They need to be 44100hz.

Yeah, the wav files need to be 44,100 KHz, 16 bits per channel and 2 channels for the chili framework.

Yup, to make the pool of audio channels able to play any sound, all the sounds have to have the same format. There are various ways around this, but I don't have the time to spend that much of it on the sound module.

You can convert all sounds to the format mentioned above, or if you have all your sounds in another format (all the same format) already, you can go into Sound.h and change the format that the system uses (check the comments).
