SGT Format - Could This be added to VGMSTREAM? Some kind of MIDI by zeaofsuos at 5:08 PM EST on January 25, 2019
So Some older games use SGT format as their audio for example midnight club 2, prisoner of war. Is it possible to add support for this to vgmstream? I will include some samples to take a look at.
All these new files scanned into one for ease: https://www.virustotal.com/#/url/45873e1c06bfc392ad5ef8ade74c318e5b792d3047234a63b1fdd091e8b22573/detection

VGMstream is all about streamed audio formats, not sequenced ones so it's highly dubious that SGTs or STYs, MIDs or 2SFs will ever be added to that plugin.
As for the means to play or convert SGTs or STYs: you can try googling "SGT to MID" or something, I heard there's such a tool or even numerous programs designed to make MIDs out of given SGTs or STYs.
Goodbye!

Ask here if you've got an account, it's #general channel in CHAT section where I stumbled upon that message (I don't remember what users discussed that though). Later!
UltraFighter It seems I was late and that invite has expired. Can you resend it? Thanks.

It's fine, I got inside the group but I can't find the messages that were discussed.

Try this then, maybe it'll work but it's not a very convenient prog after all: it seems to loop some files forever so that you'll have to launch playback of some tracks manually. Best regards!
It works nicely the only problem is still that they can't be extracted or converted to another format like say FLAC but that's probably something to do with SGT being a sequenced format and not streamed. Where did you find that SgtPlay.exe? Seems to be partly in Russian from what I can gather. Cheers.
