 All files have to be in the Ogg Vorbis format. Make sure the file names you use match the case as used on this page to ensure your voicepacks also work on case-sensitive systems.
 
-Here is an overview of all taunts available in Hedgewars. There is also a brief description when these taunts are _usually_ (!) played in normal mode, but note that this is only a guideline.  Lastly, there is a transscription of the taunt for the Default voicepack for better orientation.

 When playing taunts, there is often a bit of randomness involved, especially if there are multiple taunts for the same events. Additionally, scripts can play these sounds at any occacion. If you are a script author, it is recommended that you try to stick as close to the intended meaning as possible but this is not a requirement, of course.
 
-Some taunts have fallbacks. This means, if that particular file is missing, Hedgewars will try to use the fallback option (or one of the fallback options) instead. If the sound file is missing and there is no fallback, the hedgehog stays silent.

 The actual usage might be subject to minor changes from time to time, but the general idea will stay the same, so it's generally a good idea to focus the general idea to make your voicepack future-proof.

 == List of *unused* taunt files ==
 There are a couple of taunt files found in the repository which *aren't used in the game yet*. You don't have to support these. Adding these files to your voice pack won't have any effect at the moment.
