More question for the developers, but maybe the moderators or the pilots also know.

Tell me the sound settings and what program can create the sound.dat file

The program gave such information on the file, but I'm not sure that this is really correct information.

As the output suggests, the file is a wma file. But the game also happily reads an mp3 file. This is also one of the suggested solutions when having the problem of not hearing any voices in the game.

As for a program, if I remember correctly I used Audacity for editing and Helium Audio Converter for converting this file (from .wma to .mp3) in the past. But there might be better / more sophisticated tools.

OK. Thank you.
