i started mapping again so i can be ready
when the HL² SDK comes out

i only made a part of my map and wanted
to tjeck out the light, the sky and the bgsound ..
well heres the prob ...
the sound just stops when its half done ?!!?
if u wonna know i made the sound my self

TRY:

If you are trying to use your own sound file in a map this info might help you: less than 3 minutes long, unsigned, 8bit, mono, 11025Hz PCM and one start cue.

OR:

DoD now lets you use 16-bit sound files, if you want better sounds then: PCM Wave file, Signed, 16-bit, mono, 22050Hz and use one start cue, just to be sure.

dunno if the limit is still 3 mins though.

EDIT: More info can be found here:
