I saw that many of the sound effects from the game have been put up on the board. I was wondering if I could make a strange request for some more -- if anyone could possibly make available some sounds like walking, jogging and sprinting with the pack, and maybe some ghostly sounds other than Slimer.

If you search the forum, I think GhostGuy posted pretty much everything from the game a few months back. I used his links for all the Spilled Milk sound effects.

Actually, I only posted a fraction of the sound effects in the game. There's literally hundreds of sounds. The sounds I posted do include the foley for the player running around, but don't include any ghosts.

Also, I won't have time this week to rip any more sounds out, and I don't know how many ghost sounds there might be. If you have the game, your best bet would be to find that thread... I think it was stickied... and download the tools to rip the sounds yourself. I provided detailed instructions how to do it. You rip the sounds with one app, and then you create a batch file, to convert them all to wavs with another app.

Once more- thanks again Shawn for providing those. Their fidelity was leagues higher than anything ripped from the movies prior.

Here are the original ones GhostGuy did.

Why, whatever could this be!

Well, looks like I may be okay on the walking sounds -- I have a digital 8 track recorder that i used to grab some of the footfalls off of a youtube walk thru of the Ghostbusters video game -- and created my own series of walking, jogging and running sounds wearing the pack. However I might still need some other sounds like random ghosts and such.. no hurry though.

Im working on a simple audio project using Ghostbusters as the theme -- its a "learn-as-you-go" type project. Once Im finished I will more than likely post it here on the boards -- you Ghostheads would appreciate it more than anyone.

I provided detailed instructions how to do it. You rip the sounds with one app, and then you create a batch file, to convert them all to wavs with another app.

In case anyone else was curious (like me), here are the instructions as laid out by GhostGuy:

I don't know whether these are new or not, but I did a whole lot of googling and following various links on forums and finally arrived at this tool to extract them:
http://assassin.turfster.be/

Then I did a whole bunch more googling and found this to process .smp files, which is supposedly some kind of Winamp codec:
http://hcs64.com/vgmstream.html

I downloaded the latest version in the directory and followed the instructions, but I couldn't get it to work with Winamp at all whether the dlls were in the plugin directory or in the Winamp directroy. Luckilly the downloaded also included test.exe, a command line convertor, which required the following ogg vorbis dlls in the directory with it:
http://hcs64.com/files/vgmstream_external_dlls.zip

I then tested that out, and it worked, but it could only convert one file at a time, and I wasn't about to type in every filename by hand, but I remembered back in my DOS days that there are commands you can use in batch files to perform an operation on all files of a certain type in a directory.

So, using a reference page on Microsoft's website and after a whole bunch of trial and error because they don't make it obvious enough that batch file variables need two % signs while variables used from the command line require only one, I finally came up with this, which you can just stick in a batch file and execute to have it perform the operation on all .smp files in a sound\ subdirectory and put the resulting wavs in a wav\ subdirectory, both of which you'll need to create in advance:

for %%F in (sound\*.smp) do test.exe -o wavs\%%~nF.wav %%F

I was hoping to start a little project of my own, so for noobs like me, this info is invaluable. I may be several months late to the party, but thanks again GhostGuy.

I hate to resurrect a dead thread, but this is the exact same question I have. I have the audio files you ripped but I was not able to find the running/walking foley in any of the files. I was wondering if anybody had come up any, or would have any available? Thanks!
