> I am trying to put some of my own music into the game red alert 2, and i followed the directions and downloaded all of the utilities, but when i tried to use the XCC IMA ADPCM WAV writer, it wouldn't show up in winamp under output. I tried installing it many times, into many different directories in winamp (C:\program files\winamp.....C:\program files\winamp\plugins.... etc) but noe of them worked. I also tried installing the new version of winamp (winamp 3), but with that i can't even find the plugins section. If anyone can help i would greatly appreciate it.

First, so that u donīt waste any time, Winamp 3 is actually WinaMP3, and it is on beta stages... so unless u want to be a beta tester u donīt nedded...
Second, i wonīt use winamp to encode IMA ADPCM .wav files cause is to slow... u should better use another tool.
I recomend you to get cooledit 2000, itīs a professional audio editor but really easy to use and it supports several formats. The free version is a demo but it doesnīt has saving restrictions so itīll be just fine... besides u can use it to really improve those sounds u want to put into the game, I know by experience (Iīm using Samuel L. Jacksonīs "Waste the mutha fuckers" for my SEAL units attack command)....
If you find this usefull, tell me so, Iīll be happy to help you...
