Issue with .wv6 files #24

Closed clorofolle closed 6 months ago

clorofolle commented 5 years ago

hello! I had to convert 800+ wv6 audio files from an old pc game. At first I downloaded the zip from the master branch - Vgstream supports the format, and I had no issue converting a few of them into wav by dragging and dropping each one into test.exe. This was of course very tedious so I downloaded the latest (2.2.1) windows release to open the user interface, but it keeps refusing to open the files - probably because it doesn't recognize the format. And in fact if I try to drag and drop the wv6 files in the test.exe found in the 2.2.1 release, it won't convert them. By replacing the whole vgstream folder with the one I found in the master release, things... sort of work? But not quite. Whenever I try to convert from the user interface, I still get the "could not read X" error message, but when I look in the audios' folder, I do actually find a converted wav file! So test.exe actually runs. I still cannot control the output format, but if I just dismiss an error message for each sound file, I can "convert" 128 tracks at a time (by modifying the number of simultaneous tasks) before LoopingAudioConverter.exe crashes.

Could you post a link to one of the wv6 files so I can try it?

In your case, I wonder if it might be easier to use Winamp with the vgmstream plugin and WAV output.

EDIT: Forgot to mention, you could also try 2.3rc1, although I would expect it to have the same "could not read X" problem
