This page is part of the Essential Series modding tutorials. It covers exporting and importing the game's sound and music using [[Industrial Park (Level Editor)|Industrial Park]].
In BFBB, sounds are stored in [[SND]] (sound effects), [[SNDS]] (music and voices) and [[SNDI]] (headers) assets usually in [[HOP]] files. Most of the game's sounds (effects and voices) are in each individual level that uses them, but music is contained in MNU5.HIP. The difference between SND and SNDS is that SND are loaded completely before being played, while SNDS are loaded from the disc as they are being played. The files use a system in which a part of the sound data (the header) is in the SNDI asset, while the rest is in the SND/SNDS. When importing/exporting sounds, Industrial Park will handle this separation for you.▼

You can use the Asset Data Editor for SND and SNDS sounds to preview sounds; this only works on a few sound formats, but not all of them. For this function to work, you must first click on '''Download vgmstream''', under the Tools tool strip menu to download a vgmstream release from [https://github.com/losnoco/vgmstream/ its page] to your Resources folder. The tool is used to play the sounds. To stop a sound, click on the '''Stop Sound''' also under Tools, otherwise the sound will only stop if you close Industrial Park.

Another option is to use an existing SND/SNDS asset. Check the "Trim header and send it to SNDI" checkbox in the Asset Data Editor and click on Import Sound Data. You can also do this on an asset you duplicated/renamed. Choose your source file in the file browser dialog and Industrial Park will automatically split the header from it and place it in the SNDI file.
