Change the wav format to MP3. Wave files have huge file sizes, because they are very high quaility. You have to get a converter which can be found at many places. Just search google and you should find one.

And in the Save As-Option area of Cool Edit, you can change the Kbps ratio's of mp3's, changing their size but reducing their quality.

Indeed to Voltaire, WC3 has full mp3 support, so you should have all sounds as them.

You can import an file into th eworld editor. Just some will not work. To prove this i just imported a short cut to animation shop ;)

Also, I just imported an MP# and it worked- no problem. You have TFT, correct?

I got Cool Edit.. that's the best program, and it's amazingly cheap. A must have for sound editing. :D
