Hi, guys.
Sorry for more questions, but this one has been bugging me for ages and I can't find anything that properly answers it here. Basically, my question is this: how do you get edited commentaries to work in the game? I'm using my friends in the teams and have been able to duplicate some of their names with real-life cricketers. Others I've been able to manufacture by clipping real-life cricketer's (e.g changing "Washbrook" to "Brook"). All from the wav files that came with the game (as the "professionals" do it, I suppose!).
I tried to use blcedit but just got Agnew spouting gibberish every time [iost_uid0]any[/iost_uid0] player's name was mentioned (the usual: ten different names and then something like "bowls the final ball of the match".) I then changed back all the files that blcedit changed and it went back to normal. I assume that it didn't like the fact that I've got the Sold Out budget version of the game rather than the original Codemaster's release (which meant that the official patch didn't work - possibly because Sold Out would have boxed the patch with the game).
Anyway, what I did then was to change the original file that corresponded with the file of the player's name I wanted to change (and therefore didn't change anything with blcedit - although I used it to check which file was which beforehand). This worked fine for the original files, but any that I'd doctored were left unspoken.
Is this because I used Windows sound recorder, which appears to be a bad program for this? If this is the case, what program should I use instead? I'm downloading Audio Magic 2.34 from the link suggested in another thread, so I hope this is okay. Any clues would be good, though, as I intend to record the other names with a microphone myself, but need to know what recorder I should use for this. Sorry this has been so long.
