I miss the soundtracks we had in the older wwe games , is there a way to replace the generic music with custom songs ?

Posted

Unfortunatley not at the moment,  all the music is split up into chunks within the file a great deal of reverse engineering is going to be required to mod the sound... The audio side to my knowledge has never been modded for the PS3/360 and I don't think it will be any time soon.

Turn every song off on jukebox & play songs through your console? Or buy a MP3/laptop & listen to music from there?

Just for something to do I had a look at the header of the Game_Sound_RSX.pac file, I don't have the other files with me.

The header itself tells you:

 

The ChunkID (RIFFX)

The size of the Chunk

Format (In this case its WAVE)

Audio format (PCM etc...)

Number of channels the audio has

The sample Rate

Byte Rate

Bits per sample for example 8,16,24,32

 

There is more information in the header but as of yet I have not worked out what the remainder values represent...

{*sigh*} I remember the good old PS2 days when you just needed to extract the .yaf (if memory serves me correctly) and you could replace any music in the game in minutes!

 

I guess it's so complicated now due to the high levels of compression required to fit everything on the disc...

There is alot that goes into the music in the later games, basically Everything is contained within ausio banks (bnk), within this you can also expect to see multilpe audio files, it gets better...the HIRC header contains the informatiion that calls the specific sound in the game as well as set file lengths for the audio. Just one bank can contain over 100 files..

 

I extracted all the audio from one the files however it is not playable without converting the file, if I can 1st get it converted and playable maybe then I can reverse it and put it back in the file...but that is a very very long shot!

I have placed a request at Wwise website to trial the PS3 Wwise SDK to help decipher the audio...it's pending auth at the moment. Fingers crossed I can get it otherwise the ausio is going to be tough to crack.

It would be perfect to delete the commentary Name when playing. I mean when i replace a Wrestler with a other one from WWE13 or 12. Cool Taker hope it gets finished by your friends and you. :cool:

I've now extracted the commentary..theres 14,051 files lol and there not named either so finding the one you want to replace is going to take a looooong while lol, now I just need to find a method of changing them back into Riffx...

This reminds me of something I was planning back in my PS2 modding days - I was thinking of replacing some of the basic commentary files (moves, etc) with me and one of my mates calling it instead. I really wish now that I'd gotten around to doing that!

 

(if you ever saw the version of Cactus Jack vs Terry Funk in the exploding-ring-death-match where ICP have dubbed on there own commentary, that was the sort of thing I was going to go for)

The headers are pretty easy to figure out, I am currently finding out what settings work in Wwise...I can export the files and can compress them but not in the same format which makes me think it's something specific within the wwise xbox/ps3 sdk.Going to see if I can find a work around though.

I've got a track inserted, the good thing is that the games music still plays. Normally if a change is made the music will refuse to work. The bad news is my audio track fails to play...going to have a look at it a little more after Mania :)
