Hi! I'm hoping someone could help me with extracting DAI audio files. I was able to extract them with BF4 tools, but have a little problem. It seems these files contain more than one stream and EA Layer 3 Extractor only extracts the first one. I've tried to use "ealayer3.exe -s all", but it doesn't seem to work.

Where can I find BF4 tools？

How did you get the python script to work? It just throws this error at me: "WindowsError: [Error -529697949] Windows Error 0xE06D7363"

This script cannot unpack .cas files. Just delete all the .cas files and it will work. It unpacks all the audio files from /data/win32/loc/

Thanks, the script runs now. But all of the ebx files are empty, I don't imagine that that is normal.

Hello,

Do these bf4 tools work on more than just audio files?

Reason I ask is the modding community as a whole would be in your debt lol.

Or do you know if a tool like process explorer or ninja ripper would work for DAI. I attempted to use them myself, but I'm unfamiliar with them?

Trying to mainly get a hold of textures and perhaps find a chargen file ^^ Thank you.

The "-s all" option is for multichannel files. It works well, but its not for this case.

It seems those scripts are doing something wrong. In the example you provided, this .chunk file contains 8 DIFFERENT mono audio files, not one.

p.s. i see people at DAI Tools already sorted that out. They are splitting these chunks to individual files.
