 Posted: Tue Mar 29, 2011 3:01 pm Post subject: Opening C&C audio files |
|
|
Hello,
I've been trying to get my hands on the old C&C audio files, and recently managed to open the .MIX file using Dragon Unpack.
But now I have the files, which are formatted in .aud and v00, v01 ect.
Does anyone know how I can open or convert them? I also tried opening them in Audacity as raw data files, but I don't know how in much bits the data is...
Any help would be greatly appreciated |

Hmm it appears a friend of me has Format Factory and this enables .aud to .wav conversion.
So I think its gonna work out |

| XCC Mixer is the standard tool for browsing and extracting files from mix files. IIRC it can do this conversion too |

XCC Mixer can do the conversion for you, yes.
Technical details: AUD is 22050/16/mono encoded as IMA-ADPCM with Westwood's custom tables, in a minimal container. If you want to see how to decompress it to straight 22050/16/mono PCM, take a look at AudLoader.cs. It would be trivial to write this stream back out into a RIFF container, which could be used by any tool that understands "WAV".
I may even write a RIFF reader & writer for the FileFormats library one of these days... |
