isnt there an ability of downloading stuff and using them as costumes, sounds? i can make blocks for that if needed
importing binary data to make an audio of would be a weird way to do that..
hm, it's binary? sothen how would i convert the BINARY text into the sound w/o js?
by that i mean whats the conversion path
Example:
Text > Unicode > Binary
uh that also gives me static
