Robots (PC) *.SFX

Post by Mygoshi »

Hello everyone, I tried to play the *.sfx music files found in Robots (PC version), which are encoded with the Eurocom IMA ADPCM (MUSX).

Unfortunately vgmstream appear to don't support this specific version.

Any help please?

Samples: (expired)

Thanks.

I recently decoded some Eurocom files here:

viewtopic.php?f=6&t=2204

In this case its version 5, so do this for every file:

1. change "PC__" at 0x10 to "PS3_" (to make it think its PS3)
2. change byte at 0x8 from 05 to 0A
3. rename file to .musx

Now vgmstream can decode it with constant samplerate 44100. Change it if needed.

Ah, you don't even need to change this abababab, because it will work without it.

Only change 5 to A, and PC__ to PS3_
