Hi, everybody. As I'm quite new on this forum I didn't know where to ask this or if they asked this before but anyway...

I have made a soundpack for a server and every single file works perfect and there are no problems in testing the file.

But the problem is that the file is too big ( 32.6 MB ) and people don't like to wait when they enter a server . So I have the following question:

Is it possible to make the file smaller, or to make the wavs smaller? And how?

Thanks!

Try to compress the ZIP-File with a higher value before renaming it to pk3.

Yes, but is there a way to make the 'wavs' smaller cause they take a lot of space...
Maybe there is a program. I've tried switch sound file converter before but then the songs
do not work. Anybody ideas?
