Extracting sounds from Max Payne 2 to use in Vice City...
2004-08-29, 12:38 PM #1
Okay hear me out on this one...

I need to extract sounds from Max Payne 2 (Demo) for most of the weapons. I then need to use those to replace the sounds for the weapons in Vice City (I've already got my own new weapons models such as a Desert Eagle, AK-47 and whatnot).

I've got RAS - MP2M Master but can't get it to unpack things. I choose the Max Payne 2 Demo Sounds .ras file and then choose C:\ as the destination and hit Extract but nowt happens.

Once I've *got* the sounds I know what to do with them - it's gettin them that's the trouble.

Yes. All I'm doing is taking the sound out of MP2 and putting it into VC for my own personal modding enjoyment. It's not like I'm about to distribute it. Besides, what would be to stop me firing a real boomstick on a firing range and recording the sound? Nothing surely? Exactly.

It's probably illegal, but hey, go for it. it's not like anyone will find out unless you tell them if you plan to keep it for your own usage.
If you legally own both games, do what you want.

If you want to replace sounds, The gun sounds in VC do suck, so i don't blame you.

I'm not asking about the legality of doing it, I'm asking how I do it. I can't get MP2M - RAS Master to work!

Glad to clear that up.
