Re: Splinter Cell 2 .SS0 Music
Cool
I think I'll make one or two more small releases and then do a version 0.5 release. It should have complete support for everything I've seen so far. For this bigger release I think I'll start a new topic because the title of this one is getting a little irrelevant. I will also probably write a good, formal description of UbiSoft streams. If anyone wants to write documentation on UbiSoft streams or my program I would be happy to include them.
I have been thinking that maybe it would also be neat to create a UbiSoft stream encoder. It probably wouldn't be really difficult. I like how the XeNTaX community stresses not only file decoding, but also game modding abilities as well.

Re: Splinter Cell 2 .SS0 Music
Here is the next version. Besides Ogg Vorbis support, I am also working to make the error messages more meaningful. Actually this version can decode Ogg Vorbis.
Edit: Attachment removed. I found a bug in my program. I posted a fixed version below.

Re: Splinter Cell 2 .SS0 Music
It should. If you still have problems try the scan feature as well. If that doesn't do it then you should probably just post the file.

Re: Splinter Cell 2 .SS0 Music
Well its the same interleaved layer file that you posted and this is the command i usually try to put in but it gives me an error.
decubisnd --input-type 8 (Filename).bao -l 0 --stereo -w -o track.wav
I even force the codec to 8.
It either gives me an error or i can only extract one layer from the multilayer file.
EDIT: okay well i figured out the commands, error on my part. now the only thing is some short files they show 0 segments.

Re: Splinter Cell 2 .SS0 Music
It must be an ending segment. Kataah said he encountered some of these in Ogg Vorbis. I don't know the right way to decode them, except perhaps sticking them onto the end of the correct file and trying to decode the whole thing. I don't have any games that use these ending segments unfortunately.

Re: Splinter Cell 2 .SS0 Music
Weird, i have about 170MB left of these files. and i want to make sure i have the complete beowulf rip.
Some of the files are 9MB to 11MB so those are too long to be ending segments.

Re: Splinter Cell 2 .SS0 Music
I could be wrong. If they are like the file you posted, there is not enough data in the file to correctly decode it. Maybe you could figure out if these files match up somehow.OrangeC wrote:Weird, i have about 170MB left of these files. and i want to make sure i have the complete beowulf rip.

I'm just going to ignore that "interruption" in the topic.

Well here is all the files that i cannot decode, most of them have the begiining header with a $ symbol, but i stil cant get anything out of that.

Re: Splinter Cell 2 .SS0 Music
Wow... thanks! I'll be sure to have a look at them. Hopefully there are some headers in there that I can use to try to decode them.

Re: Splinter Cell 2 .SS0 Music
I've had quite a bit of success with your tool. It's very stable! Great work! Thank you very much for all your hard work.
On an older note that was brought up earlier in the topic: I think people would benefit from being able to encode to these files as well. I for one have been composing music and designing sounds with the intent of implementing them in free mods for various game formats. I've done so for various game engines like Quake series and Doom series, even Half-life series. However, when it comes to unreal Tournament 3/ Splinter Cell series, Gears of War, etc... that use the Unreal Engine 3 technology I haven't had much luck learning the all-in-one editing suite that comes with UT3. Splinter Cell Chaos Theory has been my biggest troubles as I've wanted to simply re-write some of my music elements and implement that into the single player game to showcase my interactive music-composition abilities.
Anyway, this tool has been invaluable for learning the layer systems they use in the games.
