Sup guys, I'm making a custom story, and in this map I want to play different music. So I downloaded an .mp3 file, and switched it to .ogg file by simply changing the ending of it from "'music-name'.mp3" to "'music-name'.ogg." But when I try the map, the music just won't play. I'm getting irritated. If I did that the file-changing wrong, or if its any problems with my scripting, please tell me. Thank you.

Simply changing the extension will most likely not work. You should download a program like Audacity (which is FREE and very simple to use) if you want to convert music for your custom stories.

Of course it won't. An Mp3 file's is totally different from an .ogg file. you can't expect an .ogg codec to decode an mp3 file or w.e really happens.

Download Audacity. You can change from .mp3 to .ogg and its' free.
