> > 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...

Actually Winamp3 is out of beta now, and the final version is available for d/l, and I've never ever seen it written as WinaMP3 anywhere. The prog's own readme doesn't even show it like that.

> 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)....
