"bgm_archive.fsys" eh? I kinda missed that one >_>

"Well, at least you tried. Too bad he didn't tell you that he was planning on getting the ISO himself. It would have saved you a lot of trouble."

Doh! on the upside, I had to get my Game Cube <--> PC connection working again, so it wasn't a completely wasted endevour. And thanks for your thanks... or something. It's nice to know when effort is appreciated. ^_^

I can't seem to get the LZSS compressor to work.

gcfsysd 0.1 worked fine, though.

Also, if the files are sequenced, wouldn't that make them some sort of MIDI format?

EDIT:
hcs, I managed to figure out the compressor. It was seemed to be successful with decompressing mirrorbo_song(though it wasn't), but miraclebo_song and country_song both caused it to send an error report to Microsoft, which makes me think that you have made an error somewhere.

Noticed something else wierd. The compressed mirrorbo_song is 5 kb, but the file LZSS.exe gave me is only 1 kb.

It's not my decompressor.
I saw the LZSS string at the beginning of each compressed file, complained to Josh about the lack of a utility to extract it, and compiled the one he found for me. Go bug Haruhiko Okumura about a program he wrote 17 years ago.

"Also, if the files are sequenced, wouldn't that make them some sort of MIDI format?"

It's most likely something like MIDI, but I wouldn't know MIDI if I saw it anyway.

There's also the distinct chance that the LZSS compression is different from what that decompressor is expecting to see. I've done all I can.

What I meant is that there might be an error in the extractor, not the compressor.

you do realize you're supposed to be decompressing, not compressing, right?

as in:

lzss d country_song country_song.d

I tried that, and the files you mention seem to work fine.

That's what I've been trying.

It does say that it is in decompression mode.

EDIT: Tried running the extractor again. Made no difference.

I don't know what to tell you, it seems to run fine on all the files. And it never produces a file smaller than the file it is decompressing from.

Can I see some of the files it gave you?

Looks like they might be some sort of Amiga MOD format.
