Okay sorry I wasn't specific enough last time, so here it goes...

Im making a plugin on Escape Velocity Override, and want to change the transition music (the music that plays when you start a new game). The sound file that I WANT to use is an mp3. I was previously told to name it Override Music and put it in the EVO folder, but the music didn't play, so I downloaded a hex editor called HexEdit, and Copied EVERYTHING from the mp3 to res edit, but the sound wouldnt play, every time i told it to play, the file would say:

Error
Bad Sound Format

So im wondering what can I do to make the mp3 play when you start a new game. PS you cant open the mp3 with resedit (no resource fork)

Thanx for any help

PPS oh and im running a G3 Mac laptop with 15 GB of space and on OS X 10.1

The error tells you the problem - EVO can't play mp3s because it doesn't recognize the format.

To get it to work, you need to download a sound converter (such as SoundApp, search on VersionTracker) and convert it to System 7 'snd ' format. When you get it into that format, open it in ResEdit and copy it over.

On second thought, you may need to decode the mp3 before you can convert it. If that is the case (I forget if SoundApp can read mp3s, but I know it can read AIFFs), search for a mp3 decoder on VersionTracker.
