I assume this is dead in the water now?
I wonder why there is no simple support for .mp3 file formats? I don't even care that I can't set music through soundbanks or music triggers. I personally use the point sound triggers to play my music (and HUD music scripting in some events) but the size of the .wav files are super inflating the mod size. I'm down to 800megs (from 1.4gigs) and I know it could be even smaller if I can compress the music files and they be recognized by the engine/game.
anyways.. I'm not really expecting much, just a curiosity, really.
