I don't think it's the same thing, unfortunately. I think I really need to get my hands on the disc to have a proper look. I might then have a better idea of getting all of the audio.

any way I can help, perhaps with the PKG?

What I did with the PS2 version was to dump the first 20 MB or so of the disc sectors and then look at it in a hex editor, and I found a file table with filenames. You can do a search for some of the following filenames to see if you find anything similar in the PS4 version: 001.pss 011.pss 012.pss...

I just used PSound on your SND file to see what was there, and it found 3 sounds in old-style PSX format. No filenames are stored for these. I suspect there may be other sounds in the file in a different format, but I can't find anything specific from trying to play the data with various codecs. Th...

Unless someone knows different, I think they've used exactly the same audio data for the PS4 version and just updated the graphics. If that's the case, then you'll only get the voices mixed in with the background music, which is the majority (all?) of the dialogue in Re:CoM. There's such a mixture ...

Your .SVM file had some audio, but it seems more like ambient background rather than cutscene audio. Is it specifically the cutscene voice audio in Chain of Memories you need? The cutscenes in the PS2 version seem to have exactly the same audio, and I can rip those ones as they're contained in .PSS...

There's definitely some background music in that .SVM file. Do you have a few more examples? I may be able to work out the format and how to extract them.

oh yes, of that and more - including battle voices. Which one would you prefer?

There's a folder called "stream" with such a file example: ST0100. This one sounds moderately promising.

I'm not sure. I know someone who has the disc, so I'll get it and have a look as soon as I can.

I've got most files out, if that helps.

No problem. Do you have an example of a Re:CoM cutscene? I could take a look at it, see if I can make anything of it. Anything's possible!

I can send you something, definitely. What is the file extension of cutscenes?

Yes, those are the only sounds in those KH files. There are quite a lot of voice audio files in the game - maybe about 2,000 in total. It doesn't seem like the audio format has changed from the original PS2 version, so you should be able to find them all in various archives with PSound, assuming th...

A few observations from those files in the "1.5" folder: All of the following files open ok for me with PSound (v2.0) - some have a VAG header, some don't, but all seem to be standard Playstation 4-bit audio: aw_006.vset - 7 sounds aw_goofy.csv - 15 sounds music157.dat - 33 sounds (all musical inst...

So, just a small report: PSound apparently can find PS2 audio files, but not the ones specifically made for the PS4. Any way to scan through them?

I've been checking out the audio of the Third Age game, but in existing rips the tempo is all wrong. Since the ost of the game is largely remixes of Howard Shore, I'd wonder if someone could re-rip it. It was also out on XBOX and Gamecube, if it helps. Pretty please? Audio and SFXs? Game was release...

I already unpacked all the PS4 files needed, it's just a matter of Kh1 animations not being viewable in Noesis.

Nothing yet but I haven't looked very deeply. Any more cues as to identify the high poly model?
