I found these .SAP files in Eiyuu Densetsu 3 for Saturn, and I have no idea about this format.
Looking at the size,it should contain contains music/voice acting (Videos are regular CPK files)

Anyone knows about this format?
Thanks
I guess this could be used as a sharing thread of sorts and maybe a request thread if I feel like it.
Feel free to share your own if you would like to!
Apparently it can store data as one .sxd file with the SXDF magic (possibly containing multiple streams). Or as a .sxd1 file with SXDF magic (this file looks like a header,always 272 bytes) and a .sxd2 with SXDS magic (actual data).

I'm looking for a coder that can help me finish a program for a personal project(not school related). It's a program that search for data inside a Binary file and prints out offsets into a .txt file.
I'm willing to pay $30 Paypal. I can provide source code.
Please leave your email for more information.
Thanks!

In my personal experience, the tracks are brighter with Cubic Interpolation vs Gaussian Interpolation. I keep flipping back and forth between the two settings. It reminds me about the debate of whether scan lines contribute to older games; They technically provide an inferior picture, but the pixel art was often designed with the limitation in mind. While the Cubic Interpolation provides a more clarified sound, I have a feeling some of the blemishes were supposed to be hidden.

It angers me.
I know a rip exists, but I want to test my music ripping abilities.
Here's some tools for the tasks: https://github.com/vampirefrog/mdxtools
I checked the file and saw that the cipher flag is 1 but the HCA files in the game I'm modding (Sonic Lost World) has it 0. I tried to decode that file with decoders available, they decode my HCA file correctly. I tried to test it in game, it exactly sounds like in CRI's tools.
The question is, is there any HCA encoder or any documentation about the format yet? Because I am making audio tools for that game and I had a big problem with this format. I also tried to change the EncodeType flag in ACB to ADX and used ADX files but it didn't work. I guess it is hardcoded into the EXE.

I'm new in this forum, so it's a pleasure to be here.
Coming to the point :
I have the original copy of GT1 european version and i want to extract the music from him (the .SEQ files)
I've tried with VGMTOOLBOX but it found nothing. I mean, with the Advanced Cutter/Offset Finder the value of Criteria search string is "7051455300000001" but nothing happened. So, i replace this value with a random number (i.e. 800000000) and it found some .SEQ files. Unfortunately, this .SEQ is corrupted looks like (it's unplayable with awave studio), but i'm pretty sure there is .SEQ on this files "SOUND.DAT"
Here's the link :
(https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B4aJp0i1XB7MZmt6YU1BTlpBUzQ/view?usp=sharing)
I've just discovered some segment of music on this files with PSound. Thank you in advance from the bottom of my heart . If you want to contact the outside , this is my email address
damianoguarinoac3@gmail.com
But how did I discover this place to begin with? Because I've been looking for a way to extract/convert/whatever-the-term-is the music sequences in PSX/N64 games into .MID for the last 3 months.
For N64 games, most of my searches reach the conclusion of using VGMTrans but since the game I want doesn't use the smashy driver, that program just gives me hex numbers.
And I don't even know what to use for PSX games.
Call me uninformed at this point but since there's a Winamp plugin to play PSX/N64 music exactly how they sounded in their respective systems, that must mean that there's a sequence being read and played similar to MIDI.
But I don't want to play the songs. I want the sequences so I can mess around with them and do whatever I want (and not put them in vgmusic.com).
At this point, I've giving up looking for a way to get those sequences myself and now I want someone else who knows more about this to do it for me.
Just to be clear, I want all the sequences in .MID format, with a separate channel per instrument. I don't care if all channels end up being set to Grand Piano, I can fix that myself (like how I did for Impact Racing's only sequence file used for the loading screen). I just want the sequences.
Here's the games I want the sequences from:
Battletanx Global Assault [N64]
Mega Man Legends [PSX]
Mega Man Legends 2 [PSX]
Sorry If I came across as rude but this has really frustrated me.
Also, as far as I know, this is not impossible, just really hard. If that's the case for my requests, then fine. I'll completely give up on this.
You know, sort of like vgmstream's properties dialog in foobar2k?
I'm in charge of the translation team of Phoenix Wright AADD. I wonder if there is a possibility to change the audio files .mca game and bend into Spanish. I could convert them to .wav with Foobar2000, but I can not reintegrate again.
Here's the files from Korogashi Puzzle Katamari Damacy's sound folder:
http://www.filedropper.com/korogashipuzzlekatamaridamacy
There were other games using these types of file, but I can't remember their names at the moment.
So I got to work, but my efforts were only half-successful. In DPP, I only found two or so samples that were reusable, so I'm not going to talk about that. What I did find was that HGSS uses a huge number of samples also used in Gen V games. And thus, the HGSS HQ project is born:
Download here.
The download contains both an NCSF set and the modified .sdat.
Some notes about this:
-How much higher quality are we talking? Most of the samples I replaced in HGSS were ones sampled at around 16000Hz or 22050Hz, and all of the samples that come from B/W are at least 32000Hz (most are a couple hundred Hz more than that), so we're talking rather non-marginal gains here.
-Due to the length and articulation of the new samples compared to the old ones, things won't sound exactly the same. Whether it sounds better or worse is a matter of taste, I suppose, but I personally feel that it is almost universally a change for the better
-The new samples are frequently louder than the old ones in addition to the quality boost. This means that there is some amount of clipping in the new songs. It's not audible, but it is certainly clipping. I might look into a way of lowering the overall volume, but it's not exactly a high priority.
-In the NCSF set, I have removed the "GB Sounds" version of the songs along with any sound effects. Even if GB Sounds didn't sound like absolute ass, these sample changes have no effect on them, so it's not worth keeping. Also note that I have not renamed anything, so it's up to you to find out which songs are which (knowing a bit of Japanese helps you here), and they're not in order either because SDATtoNCSF appends the hex number of the song to the beginning of the filename, and Windows doesn't order that properly.
-Lastly, remember that the effect will be greater or lesser for different songs--it all depends on what samples the songs use, so listen to a good deal of them.
Enjoy listening; thoughts and suggestions are welcome.

are there any tools that can split or extract the contents of this format
But is there any way to extract the music from Flower Town or other downloadable Streetpass games?
I would really like to hear that fading string part when you're going back into the shed after watering your plant, in its entirety.
Thanks!
So, I want to request for a BMS script for the game, but I don't know where to ask, because the BMS forum is unfortunately shut down for some reason. I could ask here, but I'm really worried I'll get no responses or interest. So, where should I ask? If anyone's interested, I'll tell you what the game collection is and upload both the files I've been trying to rip. I absolutely need this version to be ripped to get a sound rip that truly is the highest quality it can be.
Anyone know where to get Katamari Aventur Damacy - Touch My Katamari Original Sound Track 3 (digital only)? I can only find an iTunes link. I don't think I want to touch iTunes for three tracks.
I found Kamatari Damacy - Touch My Katamari Original Sound Track 2 here http://www.sonixgvn.net/2012/05/kamatari-damacy-touch-my-katamari.html though currently having trouble getting the file without it freaking disconnecting half way through.

here is a link to some of them
If anyone wants the sound effects I have those too.
Apparently someone already posted a topic about this format but it didn't help, is anyone able to decode this?
First of all, I tried to wrap my head around ripping the PSF set for Digimon World 3, since it's not present on this or any archive. Digging inside the game didn't lead me into any relevant music data, which I suspect is the reason why the set doesn't exist in the first place...until I conveniently stumbled upon a guy on a different forum who had very recently managed to rip and upload the music data from the game.
According to him, each track has its own folder, with each folder containing two .bin files: one holds the sequence data, and the other holds the sample data the sequence refers to. I tried to use VGMToolbox to extract the SEQ/VH/VB files from them, but it can't seem to find the .vb files in neither of the two .bin files. I tried to manually extract the .vb files, but the process proves too foreign and difficult for me.
Since I didn't notice a PSF request thread here, I resolved to just straight up create a new one in the hopes of finding some assistance, or someone interested and more knowledgable in PSF ripping, since I clearly lack the skills needed. The music data files from Digimon World 3 are here: http://www.mediafire.com/download/e3dh6w8xylxvt88/SOUND.rar
Hopefully the people who have been interested in finding a PSF set for Digimon World 3 read this, and collectively put it together.
As a side note, I suspect (and I told this to the original ripper) that the same method used to extract the music data from Digimon World 3 can also be used for Digimon World 2, which is a similar case of missing its PSF set plus people having problems digging through the game files. If anything shows up for that other game too, I'll post it in here as well.
Been tinkering around with rom injection on the Wii (Yes I know so old xD), Mario Party 3 specifically. I can get Mario Party 3 to run by injecting it into a Mario Party 2 WAD using Type 0 or Type 1 (LZH8 crashes), but it crashes either at the title screen, or if you let the intro play long enough when you see Mario on his lawn chair.
I'm wondering if this is because the resulting ROMC from Type 0 & 1 is too big, or maybe it's just because I'm running it on Dolphin, or because Mario Party 3 on the Wii was never meant to be.
To that end, do you think that having a Type 2 Compressor available would solve this problem (probably not) and do you think that would be something you'd even want to work on? (Also probably not)
Thanks for reading!
EDIT: Well my theory on Type 2 improving performance for Mario Party 3 is busted, I just injected MP3 into Bomberman Hero which is even smaller and it hasn't crashed at all yet, although it does flicker a ton.

But i haven't found a way to do the same thing with other formats like GSF for the GBA music files or USF for N64. Is something like this possible in these formats, or others as well?
Now the job is to dig through the archives for anything you think is important enough to pin. Talk about them here and I'll add them to the list if I agree.
I think the first obvious contender is
the joshw.info thread.
Discussion of other stuff that I should add to the forum, unless it directly relates to pinning, goes elsewhere.

* Creating a new thread is now a new page, hopefully there will be fewer accidental thread creations.
And some little things: the search form is a little easier to use now (better defaults, you can now click on the labels instead of trying to hit the radio button), you can search easily for a user's posts from the user info page.

It currently has no progress indicators, but it's fast enough that it should complete without much trouble, depending on your machine speed.

And it will mute all but one channel per output file, named after the input file and the channel name.
I used Nisto's MusyXExtract.py to extract the sound effects from PM:TTYD. I'm in the process of modding that game, so far text and graphics have been edited and all that's left is sound!
I was able to make new .dsp samples that I wish to replace the originals with, and I'm wondering if it would be easy/plausible to write a repacker.
Currently, I can use a hex editor to replace the existing sounds in the ISO by pasting a smaller file over the samples. However, the compression to get the files that small requires a significant sacrifice in quality-- so the obvious next step would be to possibly rebuild the samp/sdir files to account for the bigger filesizes.
If it's too much to ask for I apologize, in which case (with permission and credit given ofcourse) I could attempt to reverse the script myself, but Nisto is clearly more experienced with Python and the understanding of the format. Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated!
For reference, I'm not using the official gamecube SDK tool to convert the new samples. I'm using this that I found on gbatemp:
https://gbatemp.net/threads/dspadpcm-dsp-audio-encoding-made-easy.390305/
Perhaps I should try to use the official tool next.

In theory, I created a setup that makes lossless, digital rips possible using the Wii U's HDMI output. No noise interference, no volume troubles, no conversion, no resampling.
But during testing, I encountered severe problems that are caused by Nintendo's seemingly poor hardware implementation on Wii U.
Following up on this thread, I would like to present my findings here.
First of all, a description of my setup...
Audio sources / video game consoles:
– Wii U (WUP-001(03), EUA)
– Xbox 360 (would have to check the model, has an S/PDIF and HDMI out)
– PlayStation 2 (SCPH-50004 AQ, fat model)
Cables / switches / adapters:
- HDMI cable
- TOSLINK / digital optical cable
– Ligawo HDMI Audio Switch - 2CH/ stereo (HDMI input to S/PDIF output)
- TOSLINK to mini-TOSLINK adapter (JIS F05 jack to 3.5mm connector)
- USB cable
Recording:
– iRiver Model H120 Ver 1.33B (line input / optical input)
Judging from my tests, the setup itself is impeccable. I will get to this in a minute.
Without further ado, I am presenting you my sample recordings. The complete package can be downloaded here.
Spectral frequency display and comparison of sample recordings:
Click the names of the files for a graphic analysis of the sampling rate.
1. Eternal Darkness — Gateway to Destiny
ED_ADP.wav = conversion of the streamed file from the game disc
ED_LIGAWO_TOSLINK.wav = digital recording using the HDMI out with the Ligawo switch and the Nintendont GameCube loader/interpreter
Note: large volume difference and audio was downsampled by the Wii U
2. Need for Speed: ProStreet — title screen
NFS_ProStreet_TOSLINK.WAV = digital recording using the S/PDIF out
NFS_ProStreet_LIGAWO_TOSLINK.WAV = digital recording using the HDMI out with the Ligawo switch
NFS_ProStreet_LIGAWO_LINE-IN.WAV = analog recording using the HDMI out with the Ligawo switch
Note: difference in data between the digital recordings is really marginal and volume is the same for all recordings (so it's not the Ligawo switch causing the volume difference or the resampling)
3. Silent Hill 2 — Maria in jail scene
SH2_PSS.wav = conversion of the streamed file from the game disc
SH2_TOSLINK.wav = digital recording using the S/PDIF out
Note: parts of the file are absolutely identical while others are not (nevertheless, the recording comes as close to the streamed file as it gets)
4. Wii U — loading Miiverse
Wii_U_BFSTM.wav = conversion of the streamed file from the BIOS
Wii_U_LIGAWO_TOSLINK.wav = digital recording using the HDMI out with the Ligawo switch
Wii_U_LINE-IN.wav = analog recording using the A/V out
Note: large volume difference in the digital recording and audio was upsampled by the Wii U
Conclusions:
– there is no such thing as a consistently byte-perfect recording, even with a purely-digital setup
– however, digital recordings get very close to the source audio and there is no audible difference anymore
– the Wii U resamples all audio to an unknown sampling rate (sample recordings ranged between 36KHz and 42KHz, maybe the sampling rate is variable?)
– the Wii U's digital audio via the HDMI output looks to be much more quiet than its analog audio
– digital recordings from the Wii U should not be attempted until Nintendo resolves the volume issue (which is never lol)
I have spoken.

It seems no one extracted these files yet. Or am I wrong?
I tried removing all the bytes before the header but after extracting the adx the sound came out as static.
For anyone that's interested in helping me, here's some sample files.
Here the APK File :
Here the WinRar Archive :

If anybody can help me that would be great ^_^
Since the library of PC-FX games is small, I was wondering if it was known which games have sequenced music and which have streamed music. Currently I am looking at "Farland Story" and "Lunatic Dawn FX" which both are on the JoshW music archive. How was the music extracted from those two games?
Thanks in advance.
EDIT: Found the music in "Farland Story" and "Lunatic Dawn FX" as Red Book audio.

Ideally, I'd write a high-level spec which is used to parse the file directly. I managed to write up a "declarative spec" in the form of a switch-case statement. However, I essentially stole Go syntax, so I'm not sure if my "spec" is any more readable or language-agnostic than normal code.
* However, it's *definitely* much better than bit-bashing a MIDI file from a BMS file.
* The current BMS decoder is located at http://kuribo64.net/board/thread.php?id=2363.
** It barely works. Resulting MIDI tracks lack volume, looping, etc., and note timing is completely off.
** This program literally reads bytes from the source data and constructs a MIDI file byte-by-byte.
** The code is practically unreadable as documentation.
Existing BMS programs:
https://github.com/arookas/MIDItoBMS (BMS encoder, I didn't read, could be a spec?)
http://www.hcs64.com/mboard/forum.php?showthread=37639&showpage=0 @Yuuto
* Outdated CodePlex reader (http://jplay.codeplex.com ), incompatible with Wind Waker?, unreleased new version on MediaFire
** Yuuto disappeared, we're probably not getting the new version
**** What language do I use? ****
Also, I hate "Be-Music Source". Will you stop cluttering my search results?

Long non-BMS-related rambling removed for now. Will be reposted somewhere else.

I actually prefer full-URL links, because they tell you where they're headed, and are easily recognizable (unlike single blue words). I can also tell the difference between URLs at a glance.
Can you add support?
The file is generated (.SF2 or .DLS) but when opened with Awave Studio the message "missing cue" it is shown.
The .DSL file when loaded in FL studio still with no sound. Seems to be empty.

More like complete mess.
There's so much crazy going on with the rip for this game, and there's missing songs and random unknown music present everywhere... and sequenced songs in a crazy format (together with the streams mind you!) and even... my tales with a different male vocalist???? For some reason??????
I need a little help making sense of what's all here; I got everything as best I could, but if people maybe more familiar with the game could do the following I'd appreciate it a lot:
- Identify the songs present that are unknown; they may be from the list of songs on the OST that are missing because they're different from the OST, or just new stuff never put on an OST or in the sound test
- Find out whether missing songs are actually missing, or figuring out if they're sequenced somehow
- Do something about the sequences! The proper files for regular psf2 making aren't on the game disc, so maybe figure out what those midi files are for?
Anyone that takes a look and gives some feedback/insight/being sad about no full japanese hotarubi actually existing/whatever, it'd be much appreciated!

And the main reason I'm asking is because I couldn't find SUB_00 and potentially others on that rip. I tried ripping SUB_00 myself but neither the driver used in Manako's set nor Mark Grass' (v4.2.2) driver seems to play it properly. Heck, the only way I was able get any output at all is if I converted it to MIDI+SF2.
Sample which is more of an example of how the kyps are stored. The se090801 is the brsar file.
xma_parse keeps giving me this error: skip bits (3500) did not match previous packet overflow (0)
Note that not all instruments are playing at the right octave, some games are a little off - can be fixed easily in midi studio, but unclear at this time why. Composition is sound though. There are also some features of song format that are just not supported, so am unable to export things like ADSR. And some are more than 16 controllers, so exports to multiple midis (use a tool that allows multiple ports to play simultaneous midis).

There's been numerous times these games have been brought up to the spotlight for ripping, especially MML2 for its non-standard inner workings. May I also ask if there has been any advancements in terms of ripping Resident Evil 3, and by extension MML2? Maybe MML1 contains the previously mentioned tracks hidden inside using the same non-standard formats.

I'm looking for an extractor of Game.DAT for Super Dragon Ball Z (PS2) in order to get the music.

Each Star Ocean and the Tales entry sort of represents each updated sound quality since 1996.
For example, Tales of Xillia, Mario Tennis Open, Tales of Hearts R (3 tracks only), Beyond the Labyrinth and Dark Souls (DLC tracks) all use the same soundfont before changing once more.
Since Tales of Xillia 2 he's been using the same set I think. He also needs to understand musical dynamics in area themes...

Well, I have my own ACNL "Sound" archive, and inside it are two (accurately) named folders and one .bcsar:
–stream (.bcstm files, of course)
–GardenSound.bcsar
–asr
I cut the .bcsar with 3DS Audio Ripper and got these folders:
–bcwav
–cseq
–csar
Their names all are hexadecimal-esque, but in a hex editor you can see some human language titles.
Stream, bcwav and cseq all open in foobar2000, asr and csar don't.
I have no idea to handle those, so a hint would definitely be appreciated.
But that's not the main question:
I have converted all .cseq files to .mid MIDI files.
But the built-in soundfonts all can't substitute the ACNL sounds.
Which are all in the bcwav folder… But not all tracks there are sounds. Yay..!
I imagine I'd have to pick the fitting sounds manually to create a sound font, but first, how, and second, what's the best way?
And yes, I put up a similar thread on gbatemp.
But I assume I'm better off here, since there seem to be much more VGM enthusiasts in here.

Here's the Streams.dat file (filecutted with filecutter.bms by Aluigi) : https://mega.nz/#!Tw0zVDRJ!PiAgz_I1b514WQHA5w3lmXxV5QQCAde315AVXeYmV44
And part 2: https://mega.nz/#!Os0z3IjS!co2YfckhPmNc04OWELbTwlHfPcWQ04UYOYb7CPTVPtw
It doesn't matter if this archive is filecutted? because the archive is 667mb.. so...
Hope you can help me. Thanks in advance.
In the same directory, there are a bunch of PKZ files. Do you need one PKZ file?
However, vgmstream r1024 does seem to open neither regular FLACs renamed to LFLAC nor Ogg FLAC files renamed to LOGG.
I should note that Ogg Vorbis files renamed to LOGG work like a charm and can be easily looped by setting a LOOPSTART flag with the sample values in the Ogg file's tags.
For those asking what this could be used for: LFLACs would be unique in that they would allow for lossless compression and seamless, looping playback at the same time.
I put up a very small LOGG file just to show what it's like. This is Hans Zimmer's "First Step" from his Interstellar score. It was recompressed to Ogg Vorbis from some extracted YouTube audio, but it gets the idea across. Didn't Konami even use looping OGGs with Castlevania Rebirth?
I've searched in two hours with no results, either leading up to the same website or a completely different thing.
If you send me the files, please send them as their original filetype, if it is a .bars file, then send it as a .bars file.
Final question: can I convert .mp3 files into .bars files or whatever Mario Kart 8 uses for sound file?
Second, if not, how can I create one myself to let the converted cseqs know which sounds they should play?
Is it just manually converting all bcwavs to wav files and creating a soundfont consisting of those, and there is some magic data that the cseqs understand and follow accordingly?
I assume this isn't the case, so any help would be appreciated.
i am new to this, thus i'm sorry if i'm asking obvious things.
> using konami dat utility and demux_dat, i extracted *.vag and *.mtaf files from the *.dat files, found in the MGS3 (PS2) image.
> using vgmstream and STUpid UNcompressor, i converted those files into *.wav files and they work.
now let's say i modify those wav files and keep the same format and duration.
- how can i convert *.wav files to *.mtaf/*.vag files?
- and how can i repack the *.dat file using the new sounds? (in the konami dat utility, there is an unclickable rebuild button).
thanks :)

Of course searching through the internet is my thing so i found that but....Where is the tool?
I know the music is sequenced and it in a brsar file
Any help please ?

On x360.joshw.info, you can download the files and there are a bunch of tools (bms scripts, tools) that were used to decode XMA layers/segments (because the game use segments and layers). Inspired by the tools of X360, I want to :
- extract .mus archives
- separate by layers (1, 2 & 3 normally)
- separate by segments for each layers
(the codec used on PS3 is IMA ADPCM)
Here is a filecutted archive .mus with filecutter.bms by Aluigi : https://mega.nz/#!K5F3VIQA!c_dpP5Zn3nqeFAOF1gyVBGu-bNTbGU4K5kL2yuJq22Q

Thanks in advance.

And it has xSF support plus the others such as NSF,VGM,SPC and more!
Still a little buggy at the moment as it crashes randomly.
Might as well make this a share your favorite soundtracks or song type of thread, can be anything you like really.
It looks like this

Any advice would be helpful

Can anyone make sense of this?
https://github.com/jimbo1qaz/bms-format
One issue with the file format is that note-off commands do not operate on a note number, but rather on a "polyphonic ID", a number from 1 to 7 that is supplied with the note-on command. At any given time, there should only be one playing note with a given polyphonic ID. However, at different times in the song, the same "note-off" command will turn off very different notes.
Right now, my file format records note_off commands based on pitch, rather than poly_id. This makes it possible to translate function calls into other formats without "flattening" them (which takes up more space, especially on SNES). However, converting note_off commands to pitches without flattening the file (like the original BMS engine) is very difficult.
Apparently, 0xC4 address calls "preserve" the "note history" array (passed by reference). In fact, in the actual BMS engine, it's probably not "passed" at all; I think it just jumps to the new address (first pushing the old address to a stack).
(Note: I refer to functions and calls interchangably.)
Sometimes, the BMS file calls a function with one set of playing notes, then ends the function with another set. Because I'm trying to decode a file into a set of note-on and note-off commands, I can no longer assume the function is an independent unit, and must rely on global state to parse note_off commands.
- No function (in Dragon Roost theme) uses same note-off on multiple pitches.
- One function (volume fadeout) was called with different running notes, but did not touch them.
We can build a system to accommodate notes that overlap functions, and functions that don't touch notes.
The system will reject functions that uses the same note-off on multiple pitches.
# SIMULATION (bad)
Every time a note_off occurs, make sure it's the same pitch.
# ASSERTION
Record which poly_ids are "touched" (on or off).
We will encounter issues if any touched notes differ from the original call.
This is equivalent but MUCH faster than simulation.
different = (np.array(track.pre_history) != self.note_history)
if any(different & track.touched):
LOG.error(...)
# RESULT
I'm now able to parse the entire Dragon Roost theme without any detected inconsistencies. Now onto translating to SNES (SMW AMK)...
do you know if there's a working vgmstream plugin for Rockbox?
I downloaded the PHP/Python files and installed PHP for Windows/Python 2.7. Ran the Python script that extracts the MusyX files from the .arc file to make it compatible with the PHP script. It successfully made a .pool, .proj, .sdir, and .song file appear and this was what command prompt wrote:
"C:\Users\Myers\HMAWL>c:\python27\python c:\users\myers\hmawl\hmarcex.py c:\users\myers\HMAWL\RECORD2.arc
No more files to process."
I then ran the PHP script "SamExtract.php" with this command:"C:\Users\Myers\HMAWL>PHP\php.exe php\SamExtract.php php\the_enchapment\". (All of the files are within the HMAWL folder and the newly crated files are within the_enchapment" folder)
I checked the "the_enchapment" folder and there was now a "samples" folder but nothing was inside it. The PHP script didn't write any errors or anything. What am I doing wrong?
"C:\Users\Myers\HMAWL>PHP\php.exe php\SamExtract.php php\the_enchapment\
C:\Users\Myers\HMAWL>" (notice the lack of errors)
Also, what additional programs/scripts would I require to rip the music as a MIDI/soundfont like what happened with other MusyX-based games like Pokemon Colosseum?
Anyway, has anybody looked into this yet?
