[PS4] Need For Speed 2015 music files ( .sps )

Post by Scar557 »

Just thought that it might be a better place to ask this ( This has been posted on the " Game Archive " section ).

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hello,

I wanted to extract the full OST of Need For Speed 2015, since it is impossible to find rips online, and there is quite rare songs in it.

The files are named .sps, the same extension as used in almost every EA games, especially from the 2007-2012 Burnout / Need For Speed series era.

They used to be simple to extract with EA Layer 3, a program that ( Like the name implies ) extract EA Layer 3 files.

But it seems that it is encoded differently on NFS 2015, as the program doesn't work on them.

Does anyone have a clue on how to extract them, or with what does these files were encoded ... ?

Here are some examples here :

Little advice : The game is the second NFS game developped by Ghost, a quite new studio from EA, so the files are probably the same in NFS Rivals, i haven't see anything online on how to extract NFS Rivals OST though.

Little advice 2 : Looking through the files with Notepad, the files seems to have been encoded with LAME 3.98.4.
