I've been trying to figure out what exactly is the problem here class Player1 is supposed to play the wilhelm scream sound effect when hit by Player2Bullet.
?

public void die()
   {
       if (canSee (Player2Bullet.class))
       {
           eat (Player2Bullet.class);
           getWorld().removeObject(this);
           Greenfoot.playSound ("wilhelm.wav");
       }
the programs returns an error popup when Player2Bullet hits Player1, saying that the sound file cannot be found. I checked, and wilhelm.wav is in the appropriate sounds folder.

Double check and make sure that none of the characters in the name of the sound file are uppercase (maybe its "Wilhelm.wav").

I checked as you suggested. the filename really is just wilhelm.wav, and that is exactly what i'm calling in the code, yet i keep getting the same error over and over again

Are you sure the 'sounds' file you put it in is in the currently active project folder (that you did not put it in a copied project folder)?

ah that was it. the sounds folder had a copy in the desktop. the scream was saved into that one. thanks
