If you are converting files for DCS (output type is .daf or .dff), you may see an error reported by DCS that an imported file is invalid. As a default, dcsTools Audio Importer creates .daf and .dff files using the latest file header version for these types of files (v1.4). DCS recognizes only earlier versions of these file type headers, specifically v1.2 & v1.3 and will report converted files with a v1.4 header as an invalid cart.
The solution is to change dcsTools Audio Importer's handling of these file types to produce a v1.3 header, which is suitable for use with DCS. Changing this setting requires editing the Windows registry entry "ExportDaf14header" for dcsTools Audio Import Service. If this entry is not present, you can create it. See the dcsTools Audio Import Service Registry Information topic for details on the correct value to use.

Stop the dcsTools Audio Import Service prior to making changes to its registry settings. Once changes have been made, restart the service and test to be sure you get the desired results. It is recommended you use Windows RegEdit application to make any changes. |
