Most of the game's files are compressed into here.

I think there is also an index file somewhere because the archive contains RIFF (not real audio data) and bitmap files but the RIFF ones do not have information related to the bitmap files (offset/size).
So basically there is no information table to extract the files.

Hi all,

I'm interested in extracting the files from this game as well and wanted to bump this thread to take another look at it. If you need it the ISO with the rest of the data is on Archive.org: https://archive.org/details/muppets-inside

From the looks of it "MUPPET.ASP" on the image might be some sort of index. We opened MCD1.CD in Audacity and you can hear a pretty clear clip of Fozzie/Kermit talking and there's a listing in MUPPET.ASP for "A_CPUArrival_01322M.WAV", which seems like a good descriptor for the clip and a WAV that's otherwise not present on the CD image (or when you install the game).

I'm not too sure where to go from here, though, any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

EDIT: Took another look at it and realized the RIFF headers in MCD1.CD had the file type and file size represented. We extracted a few WAVs and got the songs we wanted manually through a hex editor (they were MS ADPCM WAV files). Just thought I'd give some more info about it if anyone was interested in doing a QuickBMS script.

Weird format, the index was MUPPET.ASP.
I have made a script but there are no filenames:
