Importing Sounds

Crown supports importing both short sound effects and longer music tracks. Importing any supported audio file produces a .sound resource in the project alongside the original audio file.

Audio streaming

During project compilation Crown inspects the audio file and chooses an appropriate processing strategy:

• Short sound effects are typically preloaded into memory so playback can start with no delay.

• Long music tracks use the original file compression and are streamed in at runtime to reduce memory usage.
