CnC3 music.

Anyone know what files is the music and how to extract and convert them to any usable format, outside the game? I know how to open and navigate the big-files but not how to locate the music itself.

Cheers friends

At the moment, we didn't manage to translate the .cdata files, which can be many things, including music.

I later noted that this post might have been placed in the wrong section, sorry 'bout that.

The Tiberium Wars music is stored inside the .big container files in the .snd files.

You can extract the .snd tunes from the .big container files with the:
" OS BIG Editor " ( www.ppmsite.com ).

The .snd files have a SCHI header and the .snd files uses XA ADPCM audio compression.

It seems to be that are currently some players (Winamp, GAP [Game Audio Player], which can basically play the different ADPCM formats (IMA ADPCM, XA ADPCM, foobar2000, ...). But it seems to be that there is no player which accepts the quite new header of the Tiberium Wars .snd files.

The videos are stored inside the .vp6 files (inside the .big files).

The .snd files contains the audio from the movies, not the soundtrack of the program.

Anyway, regarding the .vp6 files, I wrote a tutorial that is in the link below:

I can't find the audio files in the german Kane Version.
How to locate them and how to extract them with the Big Editor?
It always crashes!
