PS2 Tekken Tag Tournament Audio Ripping by EducatedFoetus at 4:11 PM EDT on June 30, 2014

Hi there guys!

If anyone could possibly help me, i've been trawling the net trying to find someone who knows how to properly rip audio from a PS2 game, Tekken Tag Tournament on the PS2 to be exact. I have had zero luck. Try MagicIso, Isobuster etc... None worked.

I then came across this forum: http://forum.xentax.com/viewtopic.php?f=21&t=5999&sid=78eef3fb0bad073382931007b84643d7

Several posts make reference to a piece of software called FJFU, which is downloaded from this site here, hcs64. Link: http://www.hcs64.com/files/fjfu.zip

Could anyone possibly tell me please how on earth I use this software to open a PS2 bin file? :( I haven't a clue i'm afraid!

Any help anyone could give would be greatly appreciated :D Thanks for all your time!

That thing is really difficult to rip. It's headerless ADPCM aka MIB and it doesn't follow the standard MIB spec iirc.

Now, I'm not sure the original 2 rips were released publicly, maybe the 1st was but they aren't around anymore so.......here's a genh version which is exactly the same but much easier to play because of the generic header that was attached to the files.

bxaimc beat me to it with much more useful info (and a rip, that's service!), but I typed the below up anyway so I'm keeping it.

Glancing over the source code, I think I understand what it is supposed to do, like many little things I'd forgotten all about this program.

First off, I don't know why you think this might apply to Tekken Tag Tournament, I don't see any evidence in that thread. So it is very possible that none of this is going to work for you. If you are looking at a .bin file, you should know that the .bin extension/suffix is meaningless.

It is a command line program, in order to run it you need to start up a command prompt (cmd.exe in Windows).

It is designed to spit out a list of commands for MFAudio, which actually does the decoding of the individual files. In order to collect this list of commands into a batch file you will run a command like:

fjfu input.file > extract.bat

Then if you have MFAudio.exe in the same directory you can just run extract.bat (again, from the command line) and it will produce a bunch of .wav files.

If, as I expect, the files you are dealing with are not actually in FJF format, fjfu will say "unrecognized header".

Thanks for the rip, much appreciated! What sort of quality is it? :)

Is there any way at all then to get the audio from Tekken Tag Tournament? Just for future reference :)

Edit: How can i convert the GENH format to WAV and/or FLAC?

Just play it in Winamp or Foobar using the vgmstream plugin .

The beauty with VGM these days is their native format or GenH formats are supported by the vgmstream music plugin and additional plugins.

Personally I recommend Foobar and the vgmstream component using WASAPI sound output.

You're honestly better off finding a lossless rip of the soundtrack. It's no different plus it's mastered since some of the stuff on the game-rip is just start to end looping. Turning ADPCM to WAV/FLAC isn't lossless at all. You're just wasting space on your drives.
