All Star Pro Wrestling III PS2 Game by Square Enix (Need help extracting BGM PAK File)

Post by MaxMarvelous »

Hey everyone, Looking to unpack the BGM PAK file of this PS2 Japan Exclusive wrestling game that was made by Square Enix that came out in 2003. For some reason, 7Zip and WinZip don't want to extract it I've made the file into a Zip and it still doesn't wanna unpack. I even tried to look up a script for when after it's extracted but couldn’t find a match (hPAK) anybody want to give it a crack?

Okay, here's a txth files to open the BGM.PAK directly (You must install vgmstream and a media player that supports it like foobar2000)

Code: Select all

subsong_count = @0x04  - @0x28 / 4
base_offset = @0x28
subsong_spacing = 0x04

base_offset = @0x00 * 0x800
subsong_spacing = 0

subfile_offset = base_offset
subfile_size = @0x0c * @0x10
subfile_extension = vs


Note: There might be a duplicates of the first song in the archive. This is because the TOC (Table of contents) inside the PAK are pointing to the offset 0x800 (0x01 * 0x800), which is the first song stored in there.

Save the text above as "BGM.PAK.txth" then put it on the same directory as the PAK file
Then use foobar2000 w/ vgmstream plugin installed to open it (Don't forget to check "Enable unknown exts" in the vgmstream preferences.)

hi, thanks so much for the help I'm sorry I've never used foobar before, got everything and made the txth file but it still won't play it in foobar. Any Idea what i did wrong i tried to open up vgmstream by itself but it won't open. Here is the link to the thtx file https://www.mediafire.com/file/cayzq2i7 ... .txth/file
