Hello, i am trying to create a soundpack and having some issues. whenever i choose them to import the text saying there’s a dialogue box open that needs to be closed dosen’t go away, even when it has, and i have to exit the editor. In response to this, i inserted the sounds manually into the soundpack file in the steam directory, but whenever i try to open it in the editor it says “failed to download metadata.” Any help with this?
