Ripping music from games

[rb26dett]

Is there anyway to rip music from games ??
NFS HP2 has tight techno music .. how can I rip it ??

 

[Homer]

arent those wave files on the disc or folder were the program is in?

 

[rb26dett]

Nope ... they are encrypt asf files.

Ill try that, thanks!

 

[rb26dett]

Nope that didnt work ... the files are in ASF format ... anyone knows proggies that convert ASF to either mp3 or wav ??

i normally rip music off using one method .. its kinda stupid but works

i have sb live and it have option of recording "what you hear" in sb updated drivers the setting is changed to "Master"

okay what i do is open my favourite sound editing program (sound forge in my case) and open a new file and start recording and than i play that "traget" file when it ends i stop the recording in sound forge, edit it a little and save as mp3

works like a charm although sound quality may not be THAT good buts pretty good

Music of nfs simply rocks i am thinking about ways to somehow rip it umm i doubt if this sound forge method will work but certainly i will try it out

 

[rb26dett]

hmm Ill try that, thanks.

Homer nope that's not working for me, i guess the asf is encrypted or something

RB any luck with those files?

 

[Homer]

You could do a search for these song:
Hot Action Cop - "Fever for the Flavor"
Hot Action Cop - "Going Down It"
Uncle Kracker - "Keep It Comin'"
Bush - "The People That We Love"
Rush - "One Little Victory"
Pulse Ultra - "Build Your Cages"
Course of Nature - "Wall of Shame"
Buzzhorn - "Ordinary"

I probably know a way to rip those songs, but I can't and won't tell you (It's kinda Illegal...don't bother PMing me bout it).

yeah i can copy the files to my hdd, actually i have copied most of the files ot my hard drive if i don't do that the game spends loads of time reading the cdrom and hangs or it lags too much

KILLorBE are the instrumental version of those songs also available?

 

[rb26dett]

KILLorBE those are SOME of the songs .. nothing I like
I like that techno one ... AND I found the way of ripping it at 160KBS!!!! whoo whoo

I had this program on my HDD called Cool Edit Pro 2.0 ... and for once it had a good use
I used that program to get the tracks I wanted and the qulity is perfect!

 

[KILLorBE]

Sorry, I don't have the game.

And yes Cool Edit is a great program, You really should use it a lot more

At least you found a way of ripping those songs w/o using "illegal" software (didn't think of CE people can be stupid when they're drunk , I had a different program in mind as you mentioned ASF)

 

[rb26dett]

Yea I used to use it alot more .. but not lately since I didnt need it
Indeed a great program, I use it to my my own mixes and stuff

 

[baqai]

Cool Edit .. umm i wonder if i can use Sound Forge to rip those tracks?
