The Beats of Rage edit pack contains a program to convert WAV files to BOR files. BOR files are the standard by which Beats of Rage plays its music. In this standard, a simple ADPCM algorithm is used to compress/decompress the audio. To create your own music files for use in you mod, you must first create a WAV file containing a loop. Save this file with the following properties:
* The program can play music at any frequency, but if you want to keep your mod small 22050 Hz is recommended. The easiest way to convert your WAV file is probably by creating a batch file (*.BAT). To do so, simply create a text file and rename it to convert.bat (or grampa.bat or eatme.bat or whatever). Enter a command into the batch file according to the following syntax: wav2bor.exe [wav-file] [bor-file] Example: wav2bor.exe mymusic.wav mymusic.bor Now execute the batch, and your file will be converted in mere seconds. To learn how to enter the music files into the game, read about levels and scenes. Note: some music files are required. See the list of required files. Note 2: You may also enter an artist and title to be saved with the BOR file: wav2bor.exe [wav-file] [bor-file] [artist] [title] Replace spaces by underbars (_). |
