    I know you can put sounds into c/c++. The thing is most games (if not all) use midi files. I do not have any midi software but i can create exelent wav files with my pc. is it really best to get a wav 2 midi converter, use mp3 or use the wave files (not wav there too large).

    Many games use what are called module files (Unreal is an example) -- they're similar to MIDI but the sounds are stored inside the file, making them sound identical on every machine.

    Wave to MIDI conversion? You must be joking

    MP3 is a good prospect now, since code to decompress them is fairly common

    MIDI files are just a sequence of notes that the computer will play. Wave is actual sampled audio, so there's no way to convert it to a MIDI. MP3 is probably the smallest you can get, which is still at near CD quality.

    Thumbs up

    if you want to make mod's use fast tracker. You can convert them to wav or mp3 with converters. I had other mod links but I lost them. I had other links to other trackers but I lost them.

    3 Years ago I used a 16-bit windows Program (I forgot the name).

    This program Converted the hand clapping sound wave file I recorded with my microphone to a midi file.

    When I heard my clap sound turned to Drum beats
    I was wonder struck ! Though I could not find that
    program again or can't help you getting it's Source on
    the Internet...

    There are similar Programs that I believe will do the same.

    Try your Luck..
