Small Tutorial: Extracting In-Game Music

[callum91]

Hi :)

Mods,if you find this useful,please move to an appropriate Tutorial Forum :)

Ive seen this question asked heaps in various places,and the answer is this:

*Choose the song that you wanna extract (remember the station and what EP it came with)
*My songs that I want are PCD-Dont Cha (Pets EP) and Lily Allen (Seasons)
*Open SimPe
1.Click Open..then, Navigate to (presuming this is your DEFAULT installation) : C/ProgramFiles/EAGAmes/TheSims2(EP)/TSDATA/Res/Sound/*station*.package

*Make sure its in PluginView....
*IF you can remember the order of songs,then thats good,if not, tough cookies
2.RightCLick on a file,Extract....

3.I call mine 'Ts2*EP*Song*number*.mp3
http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b316/callum91/3name.jpg
*THen choose that it is All Files,and not a .simpe,etc file
4.Open it in your music player,I use iTunes

--thank you PwnagePanther for noting that I didnt put in Res to the location of sound :)

[skiingiggy]

i think it is useful to some, but could we maybe get some pics? It can be very confusing to a new person to sim PE.

[callum91]

Ill get some pics later

[PwnagePanther]

You forgot something. In the TSData folder you then have to go to Res to be able to get to Sound.

[deerparker]

Thanks for this Tutorial!

I have a quick question, what .package does the music for the DJ Station/Booth thingy from Nightlife come from? I can't seem to find it...

Thanks for this Tutorial!

I have a quick question, what .package does the music for the DJ Station/Booth thingy from Nightlife come from? I can't seem to find it...

It definitely isn't in any of the sound packages, I searched maniacally for hours. It must be part of the same file as the DJ booth itself, but I couldn't find that either....

If you go to this thread (http://www.modthesims2.com/showthread.php?t=91067&highlight=cas), they've got the location worked out.

[deerparker]

Thanks sh0uriki!! And thanks again callum91!

[Petchy]

Superfreekilygreat! (?)

Thanks!
Now to get those simlish words onto my ipod so no-one can understand what on EARTH i'm Listing to. XD

[feyona]

Thank you so much!I wanted to listen the music from Sims 2 but did not imagine how to do this without game!

[porrorito]

this is a great tutorial, but SIMPE works with th Vb expansion? i have that expansion installed, and in the SIMPE web http://sims.ambertation.de/ there are no version available for VB. (till today)

Thanks for your work.

[wicked_t0y]

i couldnt remember how to do it, thanks so much...
omg a rainbow!!!

[groovilicious]

Most awesome! I just thought today that I'd like to 'rearrange' the music in addition to adding custom MP3s. This was the solution! I know, I know, I'm a nerd for wanting to put some 'Pop' Simlish tunes in buy and build mode.... But the Simlish tunes make me giggle.... ;-)

[axlnvp]
