Monsters vs. Aliens (X360) - Streams.dat

Post by Mygoshi »

Hey everyone, Monsters vs. Aliens has its music inside this Streams.dat, so I'm requesting your help to get it.

Link to the samples: (expired)

Thanks.

I have updated the script to version 0.1.1 for working also with this file but I don't support it (not easy format, redundant stuff):
http://aluigi.org/bms/monsters_aliens_streams.bms

Anyway would be nice if you focus on one platform before asking about the same game on N platforms.
Probably you already know what's the best quality before posting.
Just a suggestion, don't be surprised if people get annoyed...

Feel free to post one of the extracted files in the Audio Video section, maybe someone can help you.
The script can be updated to show the channels and frequency in the filename in case it's useful.

Is there a way to update your script so that it shows the ID, the frequency and the channel in the filename please?

Not really. I mean, just look at the .dat file itself through an hex editor.
