Title: An issue with audio
Post by: D4rkR420R on Sep 23, 2017, 05:55 PM
Hello community members! I hope you had a great day ;D So, let's get started. I'd like to mention that I been trying to modify my weapon sounds with 2 .wav files. I used Far Cry's Weapon mod method to replace the sounds with the new ones. However, once I tried it in-game, the sound was noiseless. Therefore, it lead me up to audio bit rate problems or could be the file size? Here's the details about the file.

As you can see, the bit rate is known to 705kbps. Before, it used to be around 1141 kbps so I converted it to mono & edited the bit rate to 41.1Hz. In conclusion, none of my attempts to fix it worked. Could somebody explain to me the fundamentals for replacing weapon sounds?

Try using an older version of 7z, trust me, it really works.

Guy's, I don't mean from custom weapons. I'm talking about this sfx.SDT. I'm interested in changing my shotgun sound effects with replacing the ones that, as you can see, in the picture above.

If it's normal VC you're trying to edit, try this SFX Manager (http://www.gtainside.com/en/vicecity/tools/65208-sfx-manager/)
