these .dat files are from sound.bag in netease games but inside them contain one more .dat layer, i tried to change the extension to .ogg or .mp3 but i couldn't play them. could anyone find out how to play those audio files or convert them to playable audio format using quickbms ?

sample files :

Done for you

Sound DAT FSBs

All I did was remove the first 0x18 bytes of each .dat file, renamed them to the .FSB extension and then used 'FSB5 Split' to separate the FSB files into individual tracks.

Use vgmstream to playback/convert them.

You'll need to download
VGMToolbox r1045
FSB5 Split
vgmstream


Extract VGMToolbox and then run it.

Go to VGMToolbox > Misc. Tools > Extraction Tools > Generic > Advanced Cutter/Offset Finder and use the following settings as shown.



This will allow you to batch process multiple files to remove the data before the FSB header instead of doing it manually one by one using a hex editor.

Note: You will need to drag and drop the files onto the "Files to Search" white box found in the middle top left in order for it to work.


Extract FSB5 Split.zip to a new folder and copy all of the new .FSB files VGMToolbox made for you into the FSB5 Split folder and run the 'Batch.bat' file.

This splits the single FSB5 archive files into individual FSB tracks from that archive.


Extract vgmstream-r1050-1393-gbf8534a-test-u.zip to a new folder

Copy all of the individual track FSBs from the FSB5 Split folder into the vgmstream folder then run test.bat and it will convert all of the FSB files into WAV for you.
