Hey. I've been trying to convert missing voice clips from Lego Dimensions' DLC for years now. Since no one knows how the .CBX files work, I found that the PS4 version uses a playable format... or so I was informed.
The voice files are all .OGG files, sure, but only a handful of them are playable using vgmstream. Could anyone tell me what I could do, if anything to make these things playable?

Re: Lego Dimensions .OGG Files
The main problem is that most of those files don't contain any audio. Some just have text / meta data, and others have textures. Do you know any dialogue that you can't find in these files?

Re: Lego Dimensions .OGG Files
Well, in the "Aperture Science" DLC, aside from the cutscenes there is this quote from Wheatley (of course) at the beginning where he says "As I don't know how I got back here, what we should do is crack on with these tests as we try to retake over the fac... I mean, escape..."
Looking again, based on what you describe, it seems that the filenames for everything in the folder is scrambled. For instance, in the folder that originally contained the audio folder I shared, there is a CHARS folder. And in it was a .TXT file that was actually a .VAG file. I changed the file extension and it was playable! Fortunately, I have a trick that can change multiple file extensions at once.
It is never simple, is it?

Re: Lego Dimensions .OGG Files
It just seems to me like the files are all messed up. For example, some sounds tagged with a particular language are in another language, and some tagged with Wheatley and actually GLaDOS, or don't play at all. If the files are meant to be as they are, then lots of audio is missing, so it seems logical that there might be something wrong somewhere.

Re: Lego Dimensions .OGG Files
To give some closure to this, I did manage to find what I was looking for. It took a while because they were strangely called different filenames and filetypes! I just wanted to thank you for taking a look and helping me out.
