music in Need For Speed: Underground

Pardon the complete newb question here, but is it possible to extract or play the songs from NFSU? There are some cool songs in that game that i'd like to just listen to.

It's a bit complicated, since EA threw all the music in one big file. I heard that Game Audio Player (GAP), which worked for all the previous HFS games, can load the file, but can't play it. Not sure if you can convert it all to WAV though.

All the music is in \Need For Speed Underground\SNDSTREAMS\ .

I could do that, but I am more interesting in learning if its possible to extract the songs from the actual game itself.

I tried GAP, but it didnt work.

Man, I wanna burn the songs from the game to a CD, but I can't find a track list, and I don't think they are going to make a soundtrack.

I know an Animatrix song is in there... that's about it.

Easy, get a .big file extractor like Download FinalBIG V0.2 Here »

The details of it can be found here

I dont have NFS:U so i cant say where the music in .wav format is kept.

Enjoy!

FinalBIG doesn't work. The songs are packed in files with the AST extension and are located in the SNDSTREAM directory.

You can play these AST files in GAP (the largest file has 27 tracks in it), but all you hear is static (and sometimes you can hear a song, faintly).

And you can't get all the songs from the CDs. For example, the "Need for Speed Exclusive" tracks, and I know for a fact that the "Fortress Europe" played in the game is mixed differently from the CD version.

P.S. They did the same thing with NFS:HP2, or did you think Hot Action Cop's "Going Down on It" was about cars?

Oh sorry i thought all EA games with .big extension were the same.

I used that for generals to get some vocals from it and the music or sound files were in .wav format.

I've looked around for most of of the tracks but a lot of them are EA exclusives, or aren't going to be released until 2004.

There's gotta be a way to extract them...

I'm not sure if there's a way to do it through the game, but I just disable all of the music in the game and run Winamp in the background.

Isn't the intro movie play an excerpt of BT - Kimosabe?

(If anyone wants to extract the movie, don't bother, it is available in the Media section of »www.needforspeed.com ).
