Error when trying to extract files from the .ark file inside amplitude

[Squididly]

I'm trying to extract files from amplitude but it gives me an error this error when i use the script

[aluigi]

I have just updated the script to version 0.1.1:
http://aluigi.org/bms/amplitude.bms

[Squididly]

seems to give me the same error

[aluigi]

Provide the archive.

[Squididly]

you want the whole .ark file? If so I uploaded it on my drive https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B85j0y ... 9lZE0/view

[aluigi]

No, it works perfectly.
Probably you are still using the old version of the script, check the first line of the script which contains the version.

[Squididly]

you were right i thought i copy and pasted my bad. thank you for fixing it

[Squididly]

while looking at all the files I found where the audio tracks for each song and I extracted them using psound,
but i dont have proper file names for them and some of them are slowed down and possibly missing.
im just wondering if its possible to properly extract them with quickbms.
I included one of the files.

[aluigi]

It's raw Playstation compressed audio.

I'm not sure if this is still the right place to post but its still related to Amplitude.
I found the older demo version of the game and wanted to extract the .ark file but if I try to use the script it gives me a memory allocation error.
I'm assuming this is because its an older build of the game since I was able to extract the .ark file in the P.O.D. demo which seems to use the latest build of the game.
I was just wondering if i could get any help extracting this file

and here is what quickbms gives me whenever i try to extract it using the script

The format is slightly different (and simpler) so it required a new script.

[Squididly]

thank you so much
now i know that the .nse files are audio files however these files also have their own respective .bnk file which
while researching this i noticed there was a script for gh1 to extract the sound files so i was just wondering
if its possible to do the same with the amplitude files

[aluigi]

NSE has playstation adpcm data.
BNK has a "SAMP" magic containing what they look like names of instruments/effects.

[aluigi]

I made a script, I will improve it when I will have more samples in the future:
http://aluigi.org/bms/bnk_nse.bms

*edit* yeah the format of bnk is different than the one parsed in the gh1_bnk_nse.bms script

[Squididly]

So while i was messing around with the demo version I noticed that in the demo files there are text files that you can edit but in the release version of the game its missing the text files. Now i found a .bin file that might contain the text files the game uses to load song data. I was curious to see if its possible to extract the .txt files that might be contained in it?

[aluigi]

Yeah there are the names of the text files and then a sequence of strings and 32bit fields but not easy to parse.
If you want to edit something, it's better if you use a hex editor without changing the structure and size of the file.
