Create Sound! Any tool suggestion...

Hi, Guys!

I'm finishing my latest game right now, and I wanted to create
customized sound effects. Any recommanded tool or program?
Or any web source with a lot of game sound effects?

Thank you,
Arie.

Not sure what you want? A way to play a wav file?

Code:

---

Private Const SND_APPLICATION = &H80        '  look for application specific association
Private Const SND_ALIAS = &H10000    '  name is a WIN.INI [sounds] entry
Private Const SND_ALIAS_ID = &H110000    '  name is a WIN.INI [sounds] entry identifier
Private Const SND_ASYNC = &H1        '  play asynchronously
Private Const SND_FILENAME = &H20000    '  name is a file name
Private Const SND_LOOP = &H8        '  loop the sound until next sndPlaySound
Private Const SND_MEMORY = &H4        '  lpszSoundName points to a memory file
Private Const SND_NODEFAULT = &H2        '  silence not default, if sound not found
Private Const SND_NOSTOP = &H10        '  don't stop any currently playing sound
Private Const SND_NOWAIT = &H2000      '  don't wait if the driver is busy
Private Const SND_PURGE = &H40              '  purge non-static events for task
Private Const SND_RESOURCE = &H40004    '  name is a resource name or atom
Private Const SND_SYNC = &H0        '  play synchronously (default)
Private Declare Function PlaySound Lib "winmm.dll" Alias "PlaySoundA" (ByVal lpszName As String, ByVal hModule As Long, ByVal dwFlags As Long) As Long
Private Sub Form_Load()
    'KPD-Team 2000
    'URL: http://www.allapi.net/
    'E-Mail: [email protected]
    PlaySound "C:\WINDOWS\MEDIA\TADA.WAV", ByVal 0&, SND_FILENAME Or SND_ASYNC
End Sub

GoldWave is a great shareware editor. It's free but has a nag screen that wants you to register (I may register, as it's only $20 or so and it is an excellent program).

A google search for your inquiry about game SFX should pull up many tempting results. Remember though to look through the website for how to credit the original authors.

Alternatively, you can record your own sound effects. Normally these are created by slapping around meat or breaking vegetables or fruit. Lasers, guns and such you may need to get from other places.

Or, generate your own using your own formulas.

Thank you, guys.

I think I'll choose the way of making sound effects of my own.
Anyway, I don't have much sound effects to make, maximum, 10.

Thank you,
Arie.
