I'm trying to save some of the sound effects from FL for my own purposes. Does anyone know a method or Q&D tool for ripping sounds from UTF format, and from the .INI files, and saving as .WAV? Or at least how to play them outside the game (ie. codec)?
I extracted some sounds with a "Steinberg"-program. VST 4
It is a music-program for composing and arranging and to get wav.-files running.
I made a FL song out of it ...
Long time ago ... and gone ...
Thats the only way, I know. Importing wav with the program - but it isn't cheap to
buy for only getting the wavs out of FL. :(
Its *really* basic (== a PITA to use), but good enough for my needs atm.
Actually all I wanted it for is to extract the pirate guy who says, "Keep it icy man!" and "We-ll! Look what I found", etc. and add it to my Windows sound setup. Pretty sad huh:wacko:

(Really, I speak terrible English, so please, tell me if I make mistakes. I'd like to improve it a bit )
No reason why you couldn't Wink my man. It'd be a case (I think) of recording your WAV, then adding it as a new node to the UTF file and saving back. Or creating a new UTF from scratch. Then updating the appropriate INI to point to your new WAV.
Personally I'd love to see the different houses have their own real accents, rather than the generic American.

But when you look in the UTFs there are *A LOT* of sound bites required per voice. Think every system, every number 1-20, every colour of the rainbow, faction, commodity, plus the general banter, side comments and of course the death "AAAAAAARGH!!!"
I think it would be a lot easier to take the files from the German version (for examle) and use that for the Rheinlander NPCs, but then again, they would speak in German I guess...
