Blog #17 - Extracting Voice Files from "Star Wars: The Old Republic"

I'm interested a specific thing and I'm hoping one of you enterprising folks may be able to assist.

 

I know it's possible to extract the audio from the game. There have been threads elsewhere dedicated to extracting the music from them. I don't need the music as I have the official legal soundtrack that came with the Collector';s Edition and folks upload the newer TOR music to YouTube all of the time. However, I'd really like to get my hands of the conversational audio for some particular characters - HK-47, HK-51, and HK-55 - in particular places. The only areas I can currently access the character audio files are in pre-Makeb locations.

 

A kind soul did provide me the sound files for HK-51 on Makeb , Rishi, and Yavin 4. I would like to be able to extract any character audio files available on Ziost and in the KOTFE. I'd also like to be able to find out how and where to find the character sound files for Makeb, Rishi, Yavin 4, Ziost and KOTFE. I am willing to do the work but I'd have to know how to proceed.

 

I have the following tools:
EASYMYP
acb_to_wem
bnk_to_wem
wem_to_ogg
and the instructional README that accompanied them.

 

PM me if you have direct knowledge about the above or can direct me to someone that does. Thank you for your attention.

Were you able to find anything on this? I am specifically looking to extract Malak's voice files and would like a bump in the right direction.

 

Thanks!

I'm talking about the MMO. I can extract KOTOR and TSL sound files just fine though. Totally different system from the MMO.

I was looking into pretty much the same topic yesterday and from what I read, the voice files are in the swtor_en_us_*_1.tor files, grouped by planet.

Rishi should be swtor_en_us_area_rishi_1.tor for example.

Oops - misread.
