How to convert vpb and gsb files from a Wii game to readable sound ?

Post by amgb »

Hello there,

Once again, I need help. After many researches, I managed to extract an RKV file from a Wii Game. However, now I have vpb and gsb files but I don't know how to read or convert them. Could someone please help me about how to do that, or doing it for me, please ? :)

Here are the files I would like to read : https://drive.google.com/file/d/13ku6wf ... sp=sharing

Thanks in advance.

Save these text below in the same directory of gsb files as ".gsb.txth" (Yes, that's the exact name and the extension), then open the gsb file inside foobar2000 + vgmstream plugin to play/convert it to wav.

Code: Select all

codec = DSP
sample_rate = @0x4c:BE$2
channels = @0x06:BE$2
start_offset = 0x80
num_samples = data_size
coef_offset = 0x52
coef_endianness = BE
