tkrahling Posted February 21, 2005 Share Posted February 21, 2005 Ok I would like to help lead the charge into this this year. Last year I was disapointed that I nor anyone else could figure out how to crack these files. This is where my modding forte lies, I used to do audio mods for the HH series. If anyone with more knowledge/programming expertise then me ( and that's not hard I fix Ricoh copiers for a living) wants to try to help crack the audio files this year we could open up a whole new facet of mods for 2005.

cb Posted February 21, 2005 Share Posted February 21, 2005 Is the Intro Music for the gami in one of the .big files? We never were able to figure it out. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tkrahling Posted February 21, 2005 Author Share Posted February 21, 2005 Everything expect for the EA Trax that used the Ditty Importer, god I hope we get these this year, custom homerun sounds and taking the field music, and most importantly batter walk up sounds.

cb Posted February 21, 2005 Share Posted February 21, 2005 Is there some kind of tool somewhere that opens up .big files? Are .big files only used in EA games? :? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tkrahling Posted February 21, 2005 Author Share Posted February 21, 2005 Sorry but on a side note I just found this pic, man is Khalil Greene freakin Spicoli or what???

krawhitham Posted February 21, 2005 Share Posted February 21, 2005 the files seem to be a cousin to Need for Speeds ast & abk files audio/cd/spch_pbp/pbpdat.big is the main compressed audio files. This files contains many smaller audio files (this would be similar to NfS's AST files) audio/spch_pbp/pbphdr.big would be the index file for the main audio file (LIKE NFS's abk file) also audio/spch_pbp/pbpdat.off & audio/spch_pbp/pbphdr.off these seem to be the offset location for the different files in the main audio file and audio/spch_pbp/events.evt seems to be the events that triggers the audio files 3rd_out_ends_bttm_of_inning 3rd_out_ends_top_of_inning 3_outs_in_row balk ball_drifts_foul ball_dropped_runner_safe ball_just_foul_of_pole ball_just_hr_of_pole ball_lands_foul ball_lands_foul_barley ball_level_1 ball_level_2 ball_w_checked_swing bean bunt_withdrawn catch_bouncing_ball catch_for_out catch_for_out_at_wall catch_for_out_difficult collision_ball_in collision_ball_out double doubleplay doubleplay_excited double_excited double_groundrule double_rbi force_out force_out_excited foul_obvious foul_off_foot foul_pop foul_tip hr hr_inside_park hr_obvious hr_off_pole infield_fly out_which_forces_extra_innings penultimate_out picked_off picked_off_excited putout_difficult putout_easy putout_unsucessful runscore_bb runscore_ibb safe_call sa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tkrahling Posted February 21, 2005 Author Share Posted February 21, 2005 Noticed that also, but the question is how to get into the .big audio file, from what I understand the smaller files can be edited. Why can't it just be like Tiger Woods 2005 all .wav files. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krawhitham Posted February 21, 2005 Share Posted February 21, 2005 mainly because it would not fit on two cds cheap bastards the two 2 big files have the same headers as the ast and abk files, maybe all they did was change the extensions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tkrahling Posted February 21, 2005 Author Share Posted February 21, 2005 Ok now that the site is full i'd like to bump this back up and see if anyone has any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpup Posted February 22, 2005 Share Posted February 22, 2005 i would stick with Kraw and fuzz on this kinda of stuff. they seem to be good at technical things. good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rglass95 Posted February 22, 2005 Share Posted February 22, 2005 The audio .big files aren't like the other .big files. They are just a bunch of sound files appended together. I extracted them last year, but the problem is no one has any idea what format they are in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UncleMo Posted February 26, 2005 Share Posted February 26, 2005 tkrahling, I would like to partner up with you on this. I'd love to make my own music. Right now I went through the PC version of MVP 2003 and took some of their menu music and put them in the folder where my MVP 2005 music folder is at and replaced some of the songs that I absolutely abhorred. If you go inside the game and go to MY MVP and JUKEBOX you will see the list of tracks. Tracks 1,3,4, and 9 I replaced with MVP 2003 tracks 1,3,4, and 9. Maybe this will make things bearable until I learn how to fix our problem. tkrahling, I'd like to partner up with you on this if you would like. If not, I'll do my own music if someone can provide the info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I extracted them last year, but the problem is no one has any idea what format they are in. How did you extract the files from the .big file? I'm a bit of a sound engineer on the side, and deal with different audio formats. Perhaps I could be of some help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rmac111 Posted March 22, 2005 Share Posted March 22, 2005 Boys, I have no computer skills but would like to at least lend some moral support! Any thing you can do to edit the music would be freakin great! Go get em Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any thing you can do to edit the music would be freakin great! Go get em If youre talking about changing the menu music, there are ways to do that now. If youre talking about the walk-up music, then yah, we gotta crack those...and those would be the first things I would change. There were some cool audio mods for HH; would love to see MVP get to that level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
basballfanatik9 Posted March 22, 2005 Share Posted March 22, 2005 I don't know if this has been stated, but EA Graph opens up .BIG files. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timay Posted March 22, 2005 Share Posted March 22, 2005 I don't know if this has been stated, but EA Graph opens up .BIG files. the big music files are different, we have been trying so hard to crack these audio files to no avail, they are packed in weird formats, not the regular asf format, but other formats, such as .mus, the sounds are probably coded to never be moded, someday we will do it, some day.
