(Up to File formats)

The Worms series of games has a notion of "soundbanks", which allows players to customize their worm teams by assigning them a set of sounds (called a "soundbank"), either from a collection included with the game, or creating a custom soundbank from player-specified sound files.

Soundbank file format

Soundbank files are standard LPCM RIFF WAVE files (extension .wav). When creating soundbank files they should be saved or converted to 16 bit signed or 8 bit unsigned format with a frequency up to 48kHz. The channel layout can be mono or stereo.

Soundbank sounds and meaning

This is a list of sound files and descriptions used in the 2nd-generation of the 2D series.

The descriptions are taken from the Soundbank Editor (specifically, the names.wdb file). Some of these sounds aren't used (see below), some are used incorrectly. Some of these descriptions are inaccurate or too unspecific.
