No help from me on this one - I have had a look at them before and got nowhere. :(

Well I borrowed this game from a friend of mine. I looked at the files.

.csc files are for sound.

SchemaMetafile_DVD1+2+3.csc are a collection of OGG files. These are similiar to MP3 files. The only problem I can see, is that there is no "directory" structure, they are all butted up against one another all the way to the end of the file.

Copying the first 0x5975 bytes of the archive give me this...

The DVD.csc files are nothing more than multiple streamed ogg files, in different pages. Changing the files to an OGG, will let you listen to EVERY stream in the file, in order. There are programs you can get from vorbis, that can be used to seperate the streams. We also could write a program to seperate the streams for you. Unfortunately, there are no original filenames in the file.

Yes, this is what I did as well when I looked at them. I couldn't play them in the full version of Sound Forge (tried and failed in the trial, "borrowed" the full version). So I searched for a way, tried to find possible plugins to play them, compared different saving-formats by Sound Forge to match them with the files I got. To no avail. All of this was the fundament of my
"me neither :( " post above. :D

I already uninstalled that game, as it's so awful (though at least I got it to run properly under W98 thanks to a small "hack"), but if these are OGGs then any OGG unpacker should extract them.
