Hello, was wondering if I could get some help extracting the .pbn files from the game Mercenary Kings.

Can you check if there are smaller files with a similar name and different extension?
Or maybe a small file with an index or idx extension/name.
I don't see headers or tails with information in that sample.

No help but I figured out how the data is stored, I was expecting a table with information about the files while instead it was just a 32bit with the size of each audio sample (no "file", just raw pcm audio):

The script automatically generates the RIFF header so you can play them without any problem and probably you can reimport them too (I remember to have worked on this stuff in the recent versions of quickbms)

Thank, you very much!
