i made the same (2xSampling) with PS2 version. here are two files, one from PC, one from PS2.

Listen to them and say, which you like better. Then I'll tell which one was from PC. Then we decide what to do.

Weird, second was PC? There was no "noticeable" fuzzy sound. I believe you, don't worry.

RWS extractor with names. Will work with PS2 and PC.

For PC I could deinterlace it while extracting, but you don't need it anyway, so I'm now doing this.

p.s. now I'm going to make 2xSampler tool for you. After extracting files, you can use it on any WAV file.

Your new program doesn't work with the PC version. It doesn't give files (i tried to rename .stripped to .rws but doesn't work)

Here is SamplerX2, the tool that will make ANY mono or stereo file twice frequency. I mean you can use it for any files you have from any game or not game.

So now you have extractor and samplerx2 as separate tools.

If you want extract PS2, you need:

- extract files with names with my tool
- convert them with VGMtoolbox or whatever you use
- double the rate with SamplerX2

I will make something for PC later.

Thank you. Awesome as always. I have a question though, is adding LWAV header and converting with toWAV will remove the unwanted fuzzy sound?

ok new version of extractor that deals with block padding. Works with PS2 & PC now.

So now if you want extract PC, you need:

- extract files with names with this tool
- convert them with Ima_decoder
- double the rate with SamplerX2 (if you like)

Or right after extracting convert with Ima_decoder_x2
