The first column of each row is supposed to be the row number, which is information that humans tend to find important, but that the game ignores.

The game counts rows as it reads the file, so it has no need for explicit row numbers. There is no column heading for this first column. The remaining columns contain the interesting data. When editing a. When the file is read by the game, any space character will start a new column, unless it is inside a quoted column. Numerous efforts at custom content have run awry of this when someone accidentally starts a new column by including a space in, for example, a descriptive label column.

Please don't use WAV files nowadays. MP3s are generally more sensible since it saves a lot of space. It appears NWN likes constant bitrates of kbps or lower. Some of the original game ones are for instance 96kbps. It is recommended in modern times to just use kbps. Remember to add BMU V1. BMU extension where this info is assumed.

If it is a case that WAV is needed in any particular place in the game update this with a warning and list of cases. Evaluate Confluence today. Neverwinter Nights 1: EE. Page tree.
