Dolphin, the GameCube and Wii emulator - Forums

Hi, this is going to be my first post ever on the site so pls... go easy on me.

I have a question about this certain game called Spider-Man 2. I want to extract the music from the game but the format the sounds/music are in is .wbk. Apparently, those are used in Word documents and not anywhere else. I don't know why it has it in that format. I can't seem to convert it using SUPER or vgmStream and I really want to listen to the Pizza theme because it is the best pizza music in video game history. Here's what it looks like from Dolphin filesystem...

Anyone have any idea on how to convert these or the music files from the game? Thanks!

Some games uses non-standard extensions, you could try renaming to common extensions supported by VGM Stream (e.g. hps, brstm, etc) and see if it works. Another possibility is that WBK is an encrypted container, you may need to extract the song from it if that's the case. People at XeNTaX forums may have a clue about that too, they have a forum section dedicated only to game file formats...

You could also compare it to other sound files in a hex editor, in the luckiest case you can find the relevant data and copy-paste it into another sound file with with it's old header info.

This site http://www.overclock.net/t/1058920/extra...-500gb-hdd makes me think that .wbk can also be some kind of archive file, in your case archives in which your sounds are packed, like Jhonn said.

And here is the proof:

I found this forum topic: http://forum.xentax.com/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=1256
According to this you can open your .wbk files using Game Extractor, you will need a plugin which can be downloaded from the site but you will need to register first. Perhaps you can also download this plugin from the Game Extractor itself.

Download site for this Game Extractor: http://www.watto.org/extract/download.html
This is the file/game support list: http://www.watto.org/extract/games.html
Spiderman 2 / .wbk file is in the support list, so there is a big chance that you will be able to extract sound files from your archives using this software. You won't be able to write a .wbk archive for the game yourself (so no custom music).

Good luck. Let us know whether you succeed or not.
