Re: Trials Evolution *.pak

Awesome find! And for those music fanatics out there (like me), the music from Trials Evolution can be extracted from music.fsb using good-ole towav - just drag and drop music.fsb onto the towav executable and it'll spit out wav's of all the songs. So to recap (sanity check): 1. Extract the *.pak fi...

Re: Trials HD .XWB Music Extraction

Ah, yes. The XWB format has definitions for file names (or at least 64-character descriptions), but the Trials HD one has none. Unxwb will display them in verbose mode, if they exist, but won't automatically name them.

I guess I'll have to name these songs myself!

Re: Trials HD .XWB Music Extraction

If an XWB bank has XMA files, then you can either use towav.exe (just give it the xwb file and it should extract the XMAs and convert to WAVs) or you can use aluigi's unxwb.exe , which will extract the XMA files with a WAV extension, and then you should be able to use Microsoft's xmaencode.exe to co...

Re: Trials HD .XWB Music Extraction

Success! I was wrong - VLC just wasn't playing the XWMA files properly. I dropped the WAV files in VLC and they played great! Dropped in Audacity - even better! So now I guess this thread is for historical reference. Maybe someday someone will be Googling how to extract XWMA files from an Xbox 360 X...

Re: Trials HD .XWB Music Extraction

Progress! I did some hardcore step-through debugging and found out I had changed something I shouldn't have... then I added a couple more endian-changers and the program works! It was reading the wrong area, and it turns out all the files ARE actually format 3 (xWMA). I tried to play the extracted x...

Trials HD .XWB Music Extraction

Hey everyone! I've been going through a lot of games extracting music, and most of them are a simple case of discovering the file format, getting the right tool from Google, and extracting. But this one has got me stumped. I'm trying to extract the music from the Xbox Live Arcade game Trials HD. I t...
