zhak-zigil Posted May 31, 2007 Share Posted May 31, 2007 Hi there, i wanted to extract the spoken samples from DOTT via scummrev, but a problem occured: when exploring the monster.sou, the only sound files shown and playable are the normal soundeffects like "swoosh", "bang" and so on. (except the last one which is a sentence from one of the FBI-Guys). So, does anyone have an idea how to extract the talking ? It would be awesome to get Hoagie´s voice on my PC! BTW: I have the german version of the game.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scummbuddy Posted May 31, 2007 Share Posted May 31, 2007 You may want to try different versions of Scumm Revisited and see if you get any better results. Some versions did some things better. http://scumm.mixnmojo.com/?page=utils Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if i´m the only one with that problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benny Posted June 1, 2007 Share Posted June 1, 2007 ScummRev 2 can play them, for the english version anyway. The German version shouldn't be any different. All voices and effects are in the CREA blocks and can be played. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All voices and effects are in the CREA blocks and can be played. Hmmm, there is only one crea block containing speech, the one I mentioned before. But there´s an unknown block ("????"), which maybe contains the voices? When I switch into hex mode, scummrev describes this block as an VCTL; nevertheless, i can´t open it.

Benny Posted June 1, 2007 Share Posted June 1, 2007 The German monster.sou must have a slightly different format then. Or perhaps the file is damaged. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zhak-zigil Posted June 1, 2007 Author Share Posted June 1, 2007 The problem is solved: I used the sou to mp3 compress tool to convert the whole file into one audio track. Of course this is not the best method (i have to search and cut out the wanted pieces now - horrible work) but it´s better than nothing. Thanks for your help, though!
