> I downloaded Shimmering Brony's Arnold Shortman character a few years ago, but when I installed it, I found that the snd file was causing WinMugen to crash. However, when I commented out the snd file in the def file, the character worked, but without any sound. Oddly enough, when I opened the snd file by itself in Fighter Factory, it loaded properly and I could sample the sounds just fine. Anybody got any tips on how I can get the snd file to work with Arnold?

While I don't like it when people play as my old characters as I consider them to be really bad that I don't really recommend them, I'd still be kind enough to tell you the issue...

I had this same issue back in 2016 when I got MUGEN 1.0 RC8, and then I got 1.0, and it worked fine.

Besides... I think I recall my Arnold being 1.0+-only which could also explain your issue.

Besides who plays WinMugen nowaydays other than for the cheapies... 1.0+ is better.

> Hey thanks SB. I didn't realize that Arnold was Mugen 1.0 until I checked the def recently, but that would explain the incompatibility issue with the sound. When I have the time, I'm going to rebuild the snd file from scratch with the same sounds and state numbers. Who knows, I might even write my own brutal AI so that Arnold can compete with the other fighters in the next tournament I'm preparing for.

I don't even think he's worth being edited for a brutal AI as there's many reasons he's a bad creation of mine.

> OK, I just figured out why Arnold's snd file wasn't working. It turns out that one of the sound samples was somehow faulty, and causing the game to crash. It was 4011, 0 to be precise. All I had to do was extract the sample to a wav in Fighter Factory, open and export the wav in Audacity, then replace the old wav with the new in Fighter Factory. After I did this, the snd file worked just fine.
