Hi together,
I plaied Broken Sword 3 - the Sleepe Dragon and if I have finished the game I had heard this nice Song "Love Us" by "We Love You". I tried to find it on the Intenet, I tried to extract the "data.pak" with DragonUnpacker/GameExtractor I searched for tools or a wikidescription, but I hardly haven't found anything.
I also found a file named "glob_credits.rws" maybe the Song is inside this 14MB big file or the "data.pak", I don't know.

I don't know how to find and extract the song. Can somebody help me??
Do anybody know a Tool to extract the music of Broken Sword 3??

That rws-file might be a raw wav-file (no wav header included). Perhaps some music-player will be able to play it.. Otherwise, you can try encoding it to ogg and then decode it back to wav.

Download http://www.crsn.com/hc/ff/oggvorbis/vor ... -win32.zip
Unzip and put oggenc.exe and oggdec.exe in the same directory as "glob_credits.rws". Run cmd, change directory to the correct directory. Enter:

Code: Select all

oggenc -r glob_credits.rws
oggdec glob_credits.ogg
Try to play glob_credits.wav now! :P

The problem is extracting it in the first place.

But maybe if you provided an example of this PAK file or a link to the demo?

Well this file is no raw wave-file. Converting with oggenc faild.
I also tried to open it with GoldWave and tried every possible raw-type, but there is no right one.

@Darkfox you wanted to have a link to a Demo-Version. Here is one:

You were able to extract the file? But I thought you said you could not extract anything?

No no, I didn't extract this file.
There is one big "data.pak" file with 751.3 MB and there is a folder named "data\streams" where you can find a file many *.rws-files and one of them is named "glob_credits.rws" which has 14.9 MB.
I don't know in which file I can find the music and hoped somebody can tell me in which the music is and how I can extract it.

Hi mate,

Could you please send us some pieces or the archives to look at. You can use our File Cutter tool from http://www.watto.org/extract/download/cutter.zip to do the job - just run the program, choose the archive, and click the OK button. This will create a zip with some pieces of the archive in it - then you just have to attach them to the forums here or email them to us. It will probably be the most use to look at the *.pak file, but if you want we can have a look at the other files too.

OK, I extracted all the files.
There were many *.bmp with the textures and some *.txt with the subtitles.
The rest (over 30 000 files!!) are *.dat and 45 of them are bigger than 1 MB.
Most of this files could be identified as *.ogg, but 8 of them are no *.ogg.
I don't know what format they have and what they store.

Or is the music stored in another file??

I'm sorry but these files are no *.ogg-Files these files are regular Wave-files with the sfx.

Could you manage to figure out what program the *.rws files can be opened with?

I'd like to find the speeches, but up to now I had no luck.

I unpacked the data.pak files but all I found was text files, voices, and textures. :(

As I am constantly trying to get more threads from the "Research" section to the "Completed" section, I am now bumping this thread more than a full year after its last post. ;-)

A tool to extract the audio tracks out of the Broken Sword 3 RWS files can be found here. I will see to add the specifications to the Wiki as soon as possible.

As promised. Whoever designed that format was either a genius or a madman. But probably both.

Proofreaders are welcome ...
