Hey guys,
I'm trying to learn about the sound effects format for Brawl, in hopes of extracting/playing them, and possibly replacing them with some new ones. Does anyone know anything about extracting the sound/voice files from the file "smashbros_sound.brsar" (located in the "sound" folder on the second partition of the disc)?
I know it's possible, since I've seen torrents of people having unpacked the smashbros_sound.brsar file completely, having the sounds in mp3, though I searched like crazy and couldn't find many (still active) help topics on how to do this.
So, the .brsar file in a hex editor, I can see the "RSAR" header (of course), but further in, after the names of all the files just under the header (i.e. snd_se_link_007) are without extensions, and upon locating where these files should be in the hex editor, I come across several ".rwsd" files, or at least files with the RWSD header.
You can check out a random .rwsd I manually extracted - and have NO idea how to play it... correctly. in_cube for Winamp won't play it, and neither will the standalone in_cube. I'm left with pretending the file is a raw audio file, and playing it through the default 44100khz, 16 bit, stereo mix with no interleave. When I do that, I can hear sounds being played fast, with lots of garbly audio over it. So I'm pretty lost.
<< -- You can grab the random .rwsd file here -- >>.
Any help would be really greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
