\AUDIO\ASUKA\A8_PS.VB -- MFAudio can play this file, but it hangs when trying
to convert it; has commented ("rem") out of the batch file for the time being.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I am a big fan of the Grand Theft Auto series. The quality of the voice acting
and the care that is put into the radio stations is one of the game's biggest
assets. There are very few other games that are this good when it comes to the
audio.
I've written several audio/music extraction guides for the WWF/WWE SmackDown!
series of PlayStation 2 games, but this is my first for the Grand Theft Auto
series. This guide lists of all of the audio I could find on the game disc,
including audio that most people probably could care less about.
The basic extraction information in this guide is based on Splintax's "Grand
Theft Auto: Vice City Music Hacking Guide" (also available for download at
www.gamefaqs.com). I owe a great debt of gratitude to him and his guide.
Without it I never would have known how to digitally extract audio from ANY
PlayStation 2 games.
* SPECIAL LEGAL INFORMATION *
As far as I know, this is perfectly legal. You are merely making a backup
copy of what you already own and leaving it on a storage device (hard
drive, CD, etc.) for future use.
However, it is ILLEGAL for you to put any of the music you have copied
onto the Internet. This includes, but is not limited to, placing the
sound files as downloads on your personal homepage or a corporate music
collection or sharing the files on a peer-to-peer (P2P) file sharing
network such as Kazaa, iMesh, Grokster, etc. You may NOT distribute these
files between you and other acquaintances through any means whatsoever.
Anything you do as a result of this guide is completely your
responsibility, and neither the author nor any other third party will take
responsibility for your actions.
================================================================================
SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS
-------------------
Along with the Grand Theft Auto III game disc, you will need the following
on/in your computer in order to do the music extraction.
1. A DVD-ROM drive, or any other optical drive that is able to read DVD
data discs.
2. Microsoft Windows 95 or higher (unconfirmed about 95, but I know it
works on 98, 2000, and XP)
3. Three gigabytes of free space on your hard drive. I don't know what's
the least you could have to do this, but three gigs would give PLENTY
of room to do everything with space left over. Otherwise you may have
to convert files a few at a time.
4. A copy of MFAudio, which you can download from my PlayStation page
(
http://www.theraffon.net/~spookcentral/playstation.htm).
5. A copy of my MFAudio batch file for the game, which you can also download
from my PlayStation page.
You'll also need a program that can handle .zip files. If you don't have one,
you should be able to find plenty at:
http://www.snapfiles.com
OPTIONAL
* An audio editor. (personal suggestion: Goldwave)
* A CD making program (one probably came with the drive when you
bought it). (personal suggestion: Easy CD Creator)
* An MP3 encoding program. (personal suggestion: MPEG Suite)
Links to the above can be found on either SnapFiles or my Software page:

RADIO STATION LIST
------------------
This section will list all of the files in the \AUDIO\MUSIC\ directory.
Contrary to what you may think, this directory contains more than just the
music/radio stations.
After each title is the track length of the outputted wav files in minutes
and seconds (some include silence at the end) followed by the file size of
the outputted wav file.
A list of the songs contained on each station can be found in the Audio Credits
section. However, if you want a complete list of all songs, commercials, and
dialogue contained on the stations, you'd be well advised to read any of the
station specific scripts located on GameFaqs's GTA3 page:

Female Newscaster: Residents in Cedar Grove have been coming to terms with the
emotional aftermath of a full-blown war that hit the area yesterday.
Local resident Clive Denver described to police a single gunman that he
saw fleeing the scene with a dark haired woman.
Maria: Ah, we're gonna have such fun. Cause you know I love you?
I, I, I really do... cause you're such a big strong man and that's just
what I need. Anyway, what was I saying? Oh, you know, I forget... but
you know what it's like, don't you?
Female Newscaster: The sound of explosions shook nearby homes as people ran for
cover. Several citizens were injured in the panic as gunfire was exchanged
between ground forces and a helicopter circling the dam.
Man: Yeah, we got a good view from down here in the Gardens. When the copter
finally got taken out, better than the fireworks on the fourth of July.
Female Newscaster: With the death toll already over twenty, police are still
finding bodies. There have been no official denials concerning rumors that
the dead were members of the Colombian Cartel, and still no leads as to
the cause of the massacre.
Maria: I broke a nail and my hair is ruined. I mean, can you believe it? This
one cost me fifty dollars... [gun shot]

DIALOGUE LIST
-------------
This section will list all of the files in the AUDIO directory that are *not*
in MUSIC. I'm excluding the files in the SET0 through SET6 directories (sound
effects, pedestrian dialogue, and dialogue during missions?) because I can't
figure out how to get them to play properly and, quite frankly, I don't know if
they're even worth extracting.
I'm listing everything (roughly) in the order it appears in the game. The
written dialogue, mission titles, and general order come from WhiteDragon's GTA3
Game Script (also available for download at www.gamefaqs.com) - though I have
made lots of corrections.
After each title is the track length of the outputted wav files in minutes
and seconds (some include silence at the end) followed by the file size of
the outputted wav file.
Only dialogue heard in cutscenes can be extracted. All of the dialogue during
missions is excluded.
If you're wondering why it might be useful to extract the dialogue, you could
use certain quotes as system sounds on your computer, or put up a few key
soundbytes on your GTA fan site (as long as you don't use LOTS of soundbytes,
I'm sure Rockstar won't be mad - but don't quote me on that).

Betrayal - File #2 (1:52) (13.78 MB)
\AUDIO\OTHER\JB.VB
Female Newscaster: Liberty City is in shock today, as the police and emergency
services deal with the aftermath of a devastating attack on a police convoy
this morning. As yet, no details have been released about the prisoners
being transferred in the convoy, and no group has claimed responsibility.
The convoy left police headquarters early this morning for a routine
transfer of felons to Liberty penitentiary. The attack took place on the
Callahan Bridge, leaving few witnesses, and the bridge itself severely
damaged. Some of the convicts are thought to have perished in the
explosion that followed the initial attack. Revelations as to the
professionalism of the attack struck police hours afterward when
identification of the missing felons were further hampered by an attack by
computer hackers on police headquarter databases. With the Porter tunnel
project falling behind schedule, this disaster leaves Portland isolated
from the rest of the city.
[The Colombian Cartel stops the convoy that the main character is being
transported in.]
Cartel Member: Come on! Senior dickhead! It's no problem to kill you.
You gonna be sorry. A'right, a'right. Get lost.
[some punching then... HUGE EXPLOSION]

Luigi: 8-Ball's got some business upstairs, but maybe you can do me a favor.
One of my girls needs a ride, so grab a car and pick up Misty from the
clinic, then bring her back here. Remember, no one messes with my girls!
So keep your hands on the wheel! If you don't mess this up, maybe there'll
be more work for you. Now get outta here!

\AUDIO\LUIGI\L2_DSB.VB
Mick: Luigi said... to, to give you this, so... here, here take it.
Luigi: There's a new high on the street, goes by the name of SPANK.
Some wiseguy's been introducing this trash to my girls down Portland
Harbor. Go and introduce a bat to his face! Then take his car, respray
it. I want compensation for this insult!
Drive Misty For Me (0:30) (3.77 MB)
\AUDIO\LUIGI\L3_DM.VB
Luigi: [to Mick] I had it on a combo, what am I gonna do?
Luigi: [to the main character] Hey, I gotta talk to you.
Luigi: [to Mick] All right Mick, I'll talk to you later.
Luigi: [to the main character] How you doing kid? The Don's son, Joey Leone, he
wants some action from his regular girl Misty. Go pick her up at Hepburn
Heights, but watch yourself, that's Diablo turf. Then run her over to his
garage in Trenton and make it quick. Joey ain't the kind you keep waiting.
Remember, this is your foot in the door, so keep your eyes on the road and
off Misty!

\AUDIO\JOEY\J0_DM2.VB
Misty: JOEY! Am I gonna get to play with your big end again?

were reliable, so come back leter, there might be some work for you.
Alright?
Pump-Action Pimp (0:22) (2.78 MB)
\AUDIO\LUIGI\L4_PAP.VB
Luigi: Some Diablo scumbag has been pimping his skuzzy bitches in my backyard.
Go and take care of things for me. If you need a piece, go around back of
Ammu-Nation, opposite the subway.
The Fuzz Ball (0:29) (3.54 MB)
\AUDIO\LUIGI\L5_TFB.VB
Luigi: The policeman's ball is being held at the old school hall near the
Callahan bridge, and they'll be looking for some 'old school' action.
Now I got girls all over town walking the street. Get'em to the ball,
they'll make a bundle. Get as many of them as you can before the cops
drink away their green.
Mike Lips Last Lunch (0:32) (3.99 MB)
\AUDIO\JOEY\J1_LFL.VB
Misty: Hey, I'm bored. When you gonna drill me?
Joey: In a moment, sweetheart. I got a little business to take care of. I got
a little job for you, pal. The Forelli brothers have owned me money for
too long, and they need to be taught some respect. Lips Forreli is
stuffing his fat face in the St. Marcos Bistro, so steal his car and take
it to 8-Ball's bomb shop up in Harwood. You know 8-Ball, right? Once he's
fitted it with a bomb, go park the car where you found it. Then sit back
and watch the whole show. But hurry up, he won't be eating forever.
Farewell Chunky Lee Chong (0:33) (4.1 MB)
\AUDIO\JOEY\J2_KCL.VB
Joey: Chunky Lee Chong is pushing SPANK for some new gang from Columbia, or
Colorado, or something... I'm not really sure, who needs details anyway?
He's got a noodle stand down in Chinatown. That rat has sold his last
stir-fry. I want you to take him out! If you need a piece, go around
back of Ammu-Nation, opposite the subway. Sort yourself with a Nine, you
know where it is, right? Well remember, just watch your back in Chinatown.
It's Triad territory.
Van Heist (0:29) (3.6 MB)
\AUDIO\JOEY\J3_VH.VB
Joey: Alright, we're gonna hit the payroll van. It leaves the edge of Chinatown
everyday. Bullets won't even dent the van's armor, so get a car and ram
it off the road. Now hit it hard and the punk ass security guards should
bail. Then take it to the warehouse at the docks and my guys are gonna
take over from there. Now it won't be doin' it rounds all day, so don't
hang around.
Cipriani's Chauffeur (0:32) (3.99 MB)
\AUDIO\JOEY\J4_ETH.VB
Joey: Yeah, I know, Toni. I've tuned her real sweet. She purrs, you know what
I mean? Oh, here's the guy I was telling you about. Alright, listen, this
guy ain't Italian and he's no mechanic, but he can get things fixed. This
is Pops Capo, Toni Cipriani.
Toni: Hey, I'm Toni Cipriani.
Joey: Take him to Momma's restaurant at St. Marks, alright. Now listen to me,
I'm planning a job that needs a good driver so drop by sometime later, ok?
Dead Skunk In The Trunk (0:22) (2.78 MB)
\AUDIO\JOEY\J5_DST.VB
Joey: Beautiful! Just beautiful! Alright, just the guy I need to talk to.
Alright, there's a car stuffed with a stiff at the cafe near Callahan
Point. One of the Forellis thought he was a wise guy, so he got what he
had coming to him. Take the corpse to the crusher in Harwood, alright?
The Getaway (0:23) (2.89 MB)
\AUDIO\JOEY\J6_TBJ.VB
Joey: What a ride she's gonna be, huh? Alright, listen. Get some wheels to the
safehouse at St. Marks and pick up a few friends of mine. They're hittin'
a bank and they need a driver. I gave my word that you were the man, so
don't screw this up. Get them to the bank before five o'clock, not a
minute after.
Turismo (0:21) (2.67 MB)
\AUDIO\PHONE\EL_PH1.VB
El Burro: This is El Burro of the Diablos. You are new in Liberty, but already
you are gaining a reputation on the streets. There is a street race
starting by the old school hall near the Callahan Bridge. Get yourself
some wheels and first through all the checkpoints wins the prize.
I Screem You Screem (0:35) (4.37 MB)
\AUDIO\PHONE\EL_PH2.VB
El Burro: I started my exotic entertainment business with nothing but the
sizable contents of my leather pants! A gang of no-goods has threatened
to remove my starring member if I don't pay them a cut. They threatened
the wrong man, amigo. They have a weakness for the ice cream. Pick up
the bomb I've hidden in Harwood, hijack the regular ice cream van on its
rounds, and lure these fools to their doom with the jeengley-jeengley.
They hide in a warehouse on Atlantic Quay.
Trial By Fire (0:27) (3.39 MB)
\AUDIO\PHONE\EL_PH4.VB
El Burro: Some insolent Triads stole my beautiful car last night, wrecked it and
left it burning. Some of my most precious donkey memorabilia was in the
trunk - real collectibles that are irreplaceable my friend. I've hidden a
throbbing weapon on the edge of Chinatown. Take it and teach these Triad
vandals to feel El Burro's well-endowed wrath. Arriba!
Big'n'Veiny (0:35) (4.37 MB)
\AUDIO\PHONE\EL_PH3.VB
El Burro: A thieving opportunist has stolen a van of my latest publication hot
off the press! But that SPANKED-up idiot has left the rear doors open, and
now my beautifully produced, tastefully photographed adult literature is
being dropped all over Liberty. Take the van and follow that trail of
Donkey Does Dallas volumes 1, 2 and 3 collecting it as you go. When you've
followed the trail to that thieving SPANK-head, waste him. Then deliver my
donkey derby to XXX Mags in the Red Light District.
The Crook (0:26) (3.28 MB)
\AUDIO\PHONE\MT_PH1.VB
Marty Chonks: The name's Chonks, Marty Chonks. I run the Bitchin' Dog Food
Factory around the corner. I got money troubles, but hey, who doesn't,
right? I'm meeting my bank manager later. He's a crooked bastard that
keeps bumping up the loan repayments so he can cut a slice. Take my car,
pick him up, and bring him back here. I've got a little surprise for that
blood sucking leech!!
The Thieves (0:26) (3.28 MB)
\AUDIO\PHONE\MT_PH2.VB
Marty Chonks: I hired some thieves to break into my apartment and steal some
stuff so I could claim on the insurance as you do. The thieving bastards
are threatening to tell the insurance company if I don't give them a cut.
Can you believe it? I left a car inside the factory gates. Use it to go
pick them up from their turf in the Red Light District. Then bring 'em
back to the factory so I can make 'em see Marty's point of view.
The Wife (0:19) (2.4 MB)
\AUDIO\PHONE\MT_PH3.VB
Marty Chonks: The business is gonna go under unless I get ahold of some serious
cash soon. My wife has an insurance policy and all she's ever been to me
is a hole in my pocket. I've left a car in the usual place. Go and pick
up my wife from Classic Nails and bring her back to the factory.
Her Lover (0:19) (2.4 MB)
\AUDIO\PHONE\MT_PH4.VB
Marty Chonks: Damn, I'm in trouble! Turns out my wife was seeing some guy I
owe money to. He's got real angry and he's looking for payback! I've
agreed to see him. He thinks I'm gonna pay him off, but my guess is
Liberty's dogs are gonna get yet another flavor this month.
Taking Out The Laundry (0:34) (4.15 MB)
\AUDIO\TONI\T1_TOL.VB
Toni: Take a seat kid, take a god damned seat. So the laundry won't pay any
protection, eh? The Triads think they can mess with me. Let's teach these
would be tough guys what it means to be a tough guy.
Momma: Yeah, teach 'em some respect. No son of mine gets it by some Triads.
Your father, god rest his soul, took no crap from those Triads back in
Sicily.
Toni: Sorry, ma. Yes, ma. I want you to destroy their laundry vans and mangle
any Triad gimp that gets in your way. 8-Ball can supply you with what
you're gonna need.
The Pick-Up (0:23) (2.8 MB)
\AUDIO\TONI\T2_TPU.VB
Momma: Toni's off making people bleed, or trying to. He'll never be as tough
as his Pop, but he left you a note on the table.
Toni: The laundry has agreed to pay. You did real good, kid! Go collect the
cash and bring it back here. Watch out for the Triads. They may be
shoving a firecracker up your ass, but don't take no crap. Nobody, I mean
nobody, messes with TONI CIPRIANI!
Salvatore's Called A Meeting - File #1 (0:21) (2.67 MB)
\AUDIO\TONI\T3_MAS.VB
Momma: I don't know where he is. I swear that boy of mine...
Toni: Don Salvatore has called a meeting. I need you to collect the limo and
his boy, Joey, from the garage. Then get Luigi from his club, come back
here and pick me up. Then we'll all drive over to the boss's place
together. Those Triads, they don't know when to stop. They want a war,
they got a war. Now get going.
Salvatore's Called A Meeting - File #2 (0:49) (5.98 MB)
\AUDIO\SAL\S0_MAS.VB
Toni: You did good back there kid, real good. C'mon let's introduce you to
the Don.
Salvatore: Hey Luigi.
Luigi: Oh my girls have been missing you so long. Salvatore you've been away
too long.
Salvatore: You tell them once this unfortunate business has been taken care of,
we'll all go down to the club and celebrate, ok? There's my boy.
Joey: How you doing', Pop?
Salvatore: You got yourself a good woman yet? Hey, your mother, god bless her
soul, would be turning over in her grave to see you without a wife.
Joey: I know, Pop, I'm working on it.
Salvatore: TONI! How's your Momma? She's a great woman you know. Strong.
Firenze.
Toni: She's good, fine.
Salvatore: Terrific, Terrific. Now listen you guys, you go inside while I talk
to our new friend here. I see nothing but good things for you my boy.
Chaperone (0:46) (5.61 MB)
\AUDIO\SAL\S1_PF.VB
Salvatore: Me and the fellas need to talk business, so you're gonna look after
my girl for the evening. HEY, MARIA! Move your butt. Dumb broad does
this every time. And here she is, the one and only Queen of Sheba!
What were you doing up there? Whatever it was, I bet it cost me money.
Maria: Well, you don't think I hang around here for the conversation, do you?
Salvatore: Get in the car, and keep your big mouth shut! Take the limo, but
bring it back in one piece, you hear me. And watch her, she can be
trouble.
Maria: Yeah, yeah, yeah! I'm sure your new lap dog has everything covered, and
isn't he big and strong? Hey Fido, let's go visit Chico and get some party
treats! He's at the rail station at the Chinatown waterfront, I think.
Triads And Tribulations (0:25) (3.11 MB)
\AUDIO\TONI\T4_TAT.VB
Momma: Oh, it's you. Toni ain't here, but he left one of his sugary love
letters for you.
Toni: We're at war. The Triads have a fish factory as a front. Most of their
business goes down at the fish market in Chinatown. The laundry still owes
us protection. They reckon the Triads are protecting them now, so I say we
exact a fitting punishment. Take those boys over and whack the Triad
warlords! Hell, if you get a chance, pop some of their soldiers, too.
Blow Fish (0:29) (3.6 MB)
\AUDIO\TONI\T5_BF.VB
Toni: Ok, I've had enough of this shit. We're gonna finish the Triads in
Liberty, once and for all. 8-Ball's rigged a dustcart with a bomb.
It's on a timer, so if you mess up, there'll be no evidence. Go and pick
up the dustcart. Careful, 8-Ball says it's real sensitive and the
slightest bump could set that thing off! Their fish factory will open its
gates for a dustcart, so you can drive right in. Park up between the gas
canisters and get the hell out of there! I want it to rain mackerel.
We're talking real biblical here, nothing low budget.
Cutting The Grass - File #1 (0:40) (4.97 MB)
\AUDIO\SAL\S2_CTG.VB
Salvatore: Leave us alone for a minute. The Columbian Cartel is making SPANK
somewhere in Liberty, but we don't know where, and they seem to know
everything we're doing before we do. We got us a rat! There's a guy named
Curly Bob, works the bar at Luigi's. He's been throwing more money around
than he's earning. He ain't pimpin' or pushin', so he must be talking.
He usually gets a taxi home after work. So follow him. And if he's
rattin' us out, kill him.
Cutting The Grass - File #2 (0:41) (5 MB)
\AUDIO\SAL\S2_CTG2.VB
Miguel: Here comes our little friend, Mr. Big Mouth himself.
Catalina: Were you followed? You know what goes on here is our little secret,
amigo.
Curly Bob: No, no, I wasn't followed. You got my stuff?
Catalina: Here's your SPANK, squealer. Now talk.
Curly Bob: Ok, so the Leone's are fighting wars on two fronts. They're in a
turf war with the Triads, with no sign of either side giving up.
Meanwhile, Joey Leone has stirred up some bad blood with the Forellis.
Every day they're losing men and influence in the city. Salvatore is
becoming dangerous and paranoid. He suspects everybody and everything.
Catalina: And with loyalty like yours, what has he possibly got to worry about?
Bomb Da Base Act I (0:40) (4.97 MB)
\AUDIO\SAL\S3_RTC.VB
Salvatore: The Cartels has got bottomless funds from pushing that SPANK crap.
If we make an open attack on them, they'll wipe the floor with us. They
must be making SPANK on that big boat that Curly lead you to. So we gotta
use our head, or rather one head. Your head. I'm asking you to destroy
that SPANK factory as a personal favor to me, Salvatore Leone. If you do
this for me, you will be a made man, anything you want. Go and see 8-Ball.
You'll need his expertise to blow-up that boat.
Bomb Da Base Act II (0:17) (2.07 MB)
\AUDIO\EBALL\S4_BDBA.VB
8-Ball: Yo, my man! Salvatore phoned ahead, but a job like this is gonna need a
lot of fireworks. I'll need $100,000 to cover expenses, but you know with
me you get a lot of bang for your buck. Come back brother when you have
the money.
Bomb Da Base Act II Continue - File #1 (0:17) (2.18 MB)
\AUDIO\EBALL\S4_BDBB.VB
8-Ball: Okay, let's do this thing. I can set this baby to detonate, but I still
can't use a piece with these hands. Here, this rifle should help you pop

Salvatore: It's my favorite cleaner. I'm proud of you my boy, you kicked the
shit outta those grease balls. I just got one little job for you before we
can all celebrate. There's a car around the block from Luigi's club. The
inside is covered in brains. We had to help some guy make up his mind and
it proved a little messy. Take it to the crusher before the cops find it.

Maria: Listen, Salvatore thinks that we're going behind his back, so he was
offering you to the Cartel in order to make a deal. I couldn't let him do
that. I mean the worst thing is, it's all my fault because I told him we
were an item... don't ask me why, I don't know. Look, you're a marked man
on the Mafia turf, and I've got to get out of here too. I've seen too much
killing, too much blood, I... Look, this is a friend of mine, ok? She's
an old friend... it's Asuka, she's someone we can trust.
Asuka: C'mon, enough of the speeches. We better get out of here before we get
more hysterical Italians wanting less friendly reunions.

I am Yakuza and I know you worked for Salvatore Leone's family. I can
give you work with our organization, but first you must prove to me that
your ties with the Mafia are truly broken. Salvatore Leone will be leaving
Luigi's in about three hours time. Make sure he doesn't reach his club
alive. Meanwhile, Maria and I will catch up on old times.

Asuka: Just like Kenji, always trying to play with my toys. My police source
indicates that the Mafia are watching our interests around the city in a

kept hostage by some South Americans in Aspatria. They're trying to extort
additional funds from me, but I don't believe in re-negotiation. A deal is

================================================================================
EXTRACTION WALKTHROUGH
----------------------
** MAKE SURE YOU'VE READ THE "SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS" SECTION **
** NEAR THE TOP OF THIS GUIDE BEFORE YOU PROCEED ANY FURTHER **
This walkthrough assumes that you have a decent knowledge of how to use a
computer. You don't need to be an expert, though. I certainly am not :-)
This walkthrough is written expressly to be used with my MFAudio batch file for
the game, so as to make the extraction process easy and automated. Without my
batch file, you'd have to open up and convert each file one by one. This
walkthrough assumes that you want to copy and convert ALL audio files.
1. Create an empty folder/directory on your hard drive (name it whatever you
like), preferably in a spot that's easy to get to. In this directory, create
two subdirectories named "music" and "dialogue" (it makes life easier if you
use these names).
2. Extract a copy of MFAUDIO.EXE to each of these two subdirectories.
3. From the game disc, copy everything in \MOVIES\ to the Music directory
on your hard drive.
4. From the game disc, copy everything in \AUDIO\MUSIC\ to the Music directory
on your hard drive.
5. From the game disc, copy all of the files in these directories to the
Dialogue directory on your hard drive.
\AUDIO\ASUKA \AUDIO\EBALL \AUDIO\JOEY \AUDIO\KENJI
\AUDIO\LOVE \AUDIO\LUIGI \AUDIO\OTHER \AUDIO\PHONE
\AUDIO\RAY \AUDIO\SAL \AUDIO\SHOP \AUDIO\TONI
6. Open my batch file in your .zip program. Extract GTA3_MUSIC.BAT to the Music
directory and GTA3_DIALOGUE.BAT to the Dialogue directory.
7. Close all of the programs you have running. This will free up as much
resources on your computer as possible.
8. Run each of the two .bat files. Each file will open and close MFAudio,
extracting the audio from each of the files you copied from the game disc.
This process will take a few minutes to complete. How fast it takes will
depend on the speed of your computer's processor. It *should* be done in
well under 10 minutes, but I make no guarantees about that.
9. You can now delete all of the .vb and .pss files you have in both directories
on your hard drive. These are the files you copied off of the game disc, and
they are no longer needed at this point. You can even delete both copies of
MFAUDIO.EXE in each directory. All that should be left are the .wav files.
This will ensure that you have as much free space as possible for the next
steps, and to prevent you from getting confused by having too many files to work
with.
10. Now that you have all of these large wav files on your hard drive, you
can do lots of things with them (wav is a very common format). First you
may want to maximize or normalize the volume and/or remove any silence
from the ends of the wav files. You'll need an audio editor like Goldwave,
though any decent one will do.
Now, chances are, you'll want to do one of two things with the wav files: put
them on an audio CD so that you can listen to them on an audio CD player or
convert them to MP3 format for listening on your computer or a portable
MP3 player.
AUDIO CD - You'll need a CD-RW drive (or "CD burner" as it's sometimes
called) and a CD making program (one probably came with the drive when you
bought it). Just follow the directions in the program and you shouldn't
have a problem. If you have any problems, contact the folks who made the
program you're using, not me.
If you wish to split the radio station files into separate files, so you can
make individual tracks when you burn them to CDs, you can use Goldwave's
"Cue Points" feature to set the spots where you want the files to be splitted
(read the program documentation to learn how to use it), then burn all of the
resulting files in order without any pause/silence inbetween (the pause/silence
is usually associated to the file it is placed BEFORE). This is how I did it
with a few different CDs I've made.
MP3 - You'll need an encoding program. Most should be able to convert all of
your wav files to mp3 files in one go.
Once your files are successfully burned to an audio CD or encoded into MP3
files, you can safely delete all of the wavs. You might want to keep a copy of
MFAudio somewhere on your hard drive because you never know when you'll have a
use for it.
** REMEMBER **
These files should NOT be shared with friends, uploaded to the Internet or
shared on peer-to-peer networks. Everything I've told you in this guide
is for YOUR USE ONLY!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
For those people who wish to convert the files on the game disc one by one,
here's the manual information you'll need. You'll still need to copy all of
the files you want to convert from the game disc to your hard drive.
1. In MFAudio, click "Options" at the bottom left and set as follows:
Sony ADPCM - Use Extended Flagging? YES (DEFAULT)
PSS - Scan whole file for streams? NO (DEFAULT)
PSS - Scan up to ? MB? 8 (DEFAULT)
VAG - VAG version number? 0x3 (DEFAULT)
RAW - Default PCM frequency? 32000 (48000 default)
RAW - Default ADPCM frequency? 32000 (44100 default)
Set as default player for? None of the options. (DEFAULT)
Setting these options like so will make it faster for you to convert the files.
2. Click "Open" at the top right, and navigate to your hard drive (where you
copied all of the files). Find the first file you wish to convert, select it,
and press Open.
3. The "Input Audio File" values should be set as follows:
File Format: RAW - Raw Sound Data - Compressed ADPCM
Frequency: 32000 Hz
Samples: 16 bits
Channels: 2
Interleave: 2000
Offset: 0 Bytes
Stream: [greyed out]
* For CHAT.VB, the Frequency should be 16000 Hz (all else is the same).
* For the two movie .PSS files, the settings should be:
File Format: PSS - PS2 Movie Audio Stream - Compressed ADPCM
Frequency: 48000 Hz
Samples: 16 bits
Channels: 2
Interleave: 200
Offset: [greyed out]
Stream: 00
Click Play, and if the audio sounds right, click Stop. If it sounds
wrong, click Stop and review your settings - you've done something wrong.
4. Now, fill in the values in the "Output Audio File" section:
File Format: WAV - Microsoft RIFF - Uncompressed PCM
Frequency: [16000, 32000, or 48000 depending on input]
Samples: 16 bits
Channels: 2
Interleave: [greyed out]
5. Click "Save As" and navigate to any folder on your hard drive where you
wish to keep your files. Type in a filename for the file, then click Save.
6. Finally, click "Process." When the blue bar reaches the end, your file
conversion is complete. This time varies greatly depending on your
computer's specs and the length of the track you are copying.
You will need to repeats steps 2 through 6 for EACH file you want to
extract/convert.

QUICK ANSWERS TO FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
-------------------------------------------
* No, you may not put this document on your website. I have decided not to
allow websites other than GameFaqs to host my documents/files. Please don't
ask, because I will not grant permission. In order to make sure that my work
is always available in it's most up-to-date form, it is necessary for me to
limit it's distribution to just one site. I just don't have the time to give
updates to multiple sites. If anyone sees this document on any site other than
GameFaqs, please let me know and I will take care of the situation. Thanks.
* Everything I know about audio extraction is in this document. I can't
provide you with any technical support if you run into any problems because, to
reiterate, everything I know is already in this document. Maybe someone on the
GameFaqs message boards can help you.
* Do not e-mail me asking if I will share any audio files with you. It is
illegal to do, plus I don't have any files to share. Everything I extracted
to make the guide has long been deleted.
* I can't make an audio extraction guide for Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas
because it uses a completely different audio format than GTA3 and GTA:VC.
* I can't help you with audio extraction for any games I did not make guides
for. If the files on the game disc look similar to the ones used in the games
that my guides cover, then you can try the techniques found in my guides.
Otherwise you're out of luck. Sorry.
* I don't know how to extract audio from non-Playstation 2 versions of this
game (or any other games). My knowledge only covers the Playstation 2 system,
and only the games I've written audio extraction guides for (though some of that
info can be applied to other games that use the same audio formats).

REVISION HISTORY
----------------
Ver. 1.0 (11/16/2004)
The very first version of this guide.
Ver. 1.1 (11/28/2004)
Corrected all of the file sizes. Retried Flashback FM and was able to extract
it without a problem this time, so it has been removed from the Problem Files
section/notation and the length and size has been added for it. Now if only
I could just get that other problem file to work properly.
Ver. 1.2 (3/22/2005)
Added some optional programs to the System Requirements section.
Ver. FINAL (9/21/2006)
Added some information about San Andreas audio extraction to the top of the
Introduction section.
