Help:Audio files

Ogg vorbis and midi are the only audio formats enabled by default on Wikia. These files function similarly to image files in that they show up in the same categories. To embed an audio file on an article simply add it as you would with an image:.

For placing audio files inline, the OggHandler extension allows a  parameter which removes the info button and only shows the play button.

If you have trouble playing audio files, try selecting a different player than the default. If you have no player installed, see Wikipedia:Media help on how to install a number of audio players.

You can find many ogg converters on the net to convert excisting audio tracks into eg. Ogg Vorbis. The Sims Wiki recommends Audacity but cannot offer any support for this program. To find another converter, visit Google
