Dead Space Legacy (2008-2013) Audio Tools

Featured Replies

  • Localization

This thread is about the audio extraction tools from the legacy Dead Space trilogy (Dead Space, Dead Space 2, Dead Space 3). All of the tools were downloaded from Xentax years back, so credit to all of the original makers of the tools go to them. I just want to preserve them in a single place.

I don't recall from memory any more what all of these file formats were, so I'm probably not much help with the usage. I'm just pasting links of the tools I had uploaded to my Mediafire account in 2018. However, what I do remember is that some of these tools that supposedly worked with two games were acting out a bit so I just in case had made seperate versions for each game. Dead Space 1 definitely has its own file formats and tools that don't work on Dead Space 2 and 3 and wise versa. I believe SBK unpacker works for all of the games but I'm not 100% sure. Exa unpacker was for Dead Space 2 specifically and EALayer for Dead Space 3, but I'm not sure if they could be modified so that one tool works with a single game.

To be honest, if I was more knowledgeable, I'd just make one megatool with a proper UI that can open and extract from all of the games since having these billion exe files is frustrating.

===============================

Universal .STR and DS2-3 BigFile formats' RickVisceral's BigViewer

(Note that the BigFile extractor has its own UI and the STR file opener is included in the same folder. I'm pretty sure the STR file tool works with DS1 since I don't have any seperate tool for that file format with DS1 label).

If I recall, some audio files can't be extracted for some reason, I think it was because they use console audio formats for some reason. For one, I recall that Dead Space 3 audiostreams folder was missing  quite a bit of music files when I was uploading the whole soundtrack on YouTube some 6 years back so I had to resort to recording in the game.

Also, the NPC chatter sounds come in multiple languages, so if you want English version, you need to pick the right one from the number stack. So don't be alarmed if you think you're missing some final audio files.

 

Here are all of the 3D model tools:

Edit: Here are all the tools linked to this forum instead of Mediafire:

Gibbed Visceral viewer (DS2-3 archive unpacker, DS1-3 .STR unpacker)

Visceral Viewer DS2-3 Parsed.rar

Here is the uncompiled version of the Visceral viewer. I don't see the Dead Space 3 file list, so the version I originally received from Xentax, that I have attached, is much more up to date.

https://github.com/gibbed/Gibbed.Visceral

DS2-3 EAlayer (exa / snu to MP3)

ds2 ealayer.rards3 ealayer.rar

DS1 SNU to WAV

ds1 towav snu.rar 

DS1-3 SBK unpack (DS2 version works with DS1 as I recall)

ds2-3 sbk unpack.rar

DS1 Xas decode (exa to wav or mp3)

ds1 xas_decode.rar

Credits go to all the original authors of these tools, I am merely reuploading them for the sake of preservation purposes and take credit only for that.
