In article <25e52j$mch@mickey.cc.utexas.edu> you write: >How about doing some sort of compression on the files, like zipping them or >something? They're awfully large. And I have a 2400 baud dial-in to the >net, so that sort of plays havoc with my wanting large files. Last time Audio samples don't compress enough to make any difference. I originally zipped (pkzip 2.04g) the sound files and gained less than 20%. It didn't seem worth it, as not every platform has a version of the latest PKZIP, and I wanted to spread this as widely as possible. Sorry, but these files are as small as possible. 14.4k modems are selling in the computer shopper for less than $200 US. To play this game you will have to buy the right equipment.
