As already mentioned, for all players to hear your modified voices, each of them will have to have that file too.

Thanks Iggy,
well it'd be more for my personal entertainment that way no one gets offended if francis says," I better grab these before the black guys swipes them" or something like that. Thanks again~~

could you please send me the original files? I have been looking for ages trying to find the sounds.

Thanks for the info, Iggy. I didn't expect to find intelligent info in this thread.

However, can you tell me how to see the WAV file properties that you show in your post? Whenever I check the properties of one of the soundfiles there are only two tabs ('General' and 'Summary') that display very little information. If I could see the info you posted for every file it would make editing a helluva lot easier, or at least give me some idea as to why some of my altered sound files aren't working.

I posted a thread earlier, but didn't get much help: http://www.left4deadforums.com/19108-sound-files.html
