Re: Aaargh! Can't use sound.

So even playing sounds results in a crash? I would recommend checking your sound card drivers; it's possible they're outdated. What operating system do you use?

Answer these questions. They could help me solve your problem.

I wrote:

On average, how muh space do the sounds take up? (It should say below the sounds) If it crashes before you can see, about how long are they?

I wrote:

What does it say when Scratch crashes?

I wrote:

When do  you add your sounds? Ex.) As you go along, at the end, etc.

I have a similar problem. One of my projects, (that uses a Mic ) recently quit working unless you go to Flash. No mic in Java mode.

The Java player doesn't support microphones. The Flash does however so that's why.

Re: Aaargh! Can't use sound.

Is it possible that the music file was so big that scratch could not handle it and crashed? Like over 10 mb
