(this is related to my last thread) So, I have a cpk file which is filled with .bin files (different from the one I mentioned in that thread) and I've been trying to find out how to possibly extract files or get files from those .bin files. I scanned a few of those .bin files with File Viewer Plus and apparently there are .adx, .lif, .pc1, and .obj files within these .bin files. The files I specifically want are the .adx files as those supposedly are audio files, but I don't know how to get them "out" of the bin files, the only suggestions I've heard being to use a hex code editor, which I don't have any experience with.

If anyone could help me with the hex code thing or have another method for getting those files inside the .bin files, I'd really appreciate it!! (Also, just in case, the game is "Fullmetal Alchemist Yakusoku No Hi e" and the .bin files are from DAT001.cpk)

Thanks in advance!!

Why are you creating a new thread rather than just replying to your old one!?

Anway, ".bin" is a mostly meaningless extension. It is commonly used for optical disc image formats, but otherwise a .bin file can contain almost anything. It could even be a custom format that the developers created specifically for this one game, in which case it will have to be reverse-engineered from scratch.

Sorry, I wasn't sure if I should've replied or not, so I just made a new post, haha. :(

This .bin stuff seems like even more of a mystery now...maybe I'll figure it out on my own, but I guess I'm at a dead end for now. :wacko:

Also, thank you for helping me!!!

    Yeah, I'm addicted to smoking, sadly. It's very addictive but I wish I didn't start.

    @SylverReZ, you played that Mario flash game called Mario 63?
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, No, but I've seen it on Vinesauce's stream.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, that game is one of the reasons i met newgrounds bc the full versión of it is in that site
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Also somebody is remaking it
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, the other game where I found newgrounds is new york shark

    Spoke to Tom Fulp the other day, if he can find his old Newgrounds site content like the mini Flash animations from the 2000's that played on the portal.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    So far no response, but he did say that he'll find them. Wayback Machine doesn't have em.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, atleast the 1999 versión of pico's school is avaliable (the difference between it, the 2006 versión and the 2016 versión is that the speed of the game depends of the speed of your computer and that it had the og soundtrack)
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, Another being Pico VS Bear, the original 1999 version before Jim Henson filed a DMCA takedown.

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    The 2006 versión was made when the flash portal was made
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Many people thought it was lost, but was discovered that he hid it on the same page.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, although the "secrets" system where the game was has been removed. Also pico vs uberkids had a netplay versión that was shutdown, although the swf file has been found
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, Nope. There are two download buttons on the same page, where you can download the original under a file called "bear.exe". "bear2.exe", however, is the updated game in a Flash projector. P.s. this was on the archived Pico page from 2000.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, That's been there for a long time, too. People who search for lost media don't look hard enough lmao.

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, also the pico 2 demos used to be only for the newgrounds patrons but they are on internet archive too (https://archive.org/download/picos_school_2)

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Iirc the demos were removed from newgrounds in 2022
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, or well only the demo with mindchamber's style was on newgrounds

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Fun fact @SylverReZ: iirc one of the goals on the fnf Kickstarter stated that pico 2 would be finished but the Kickstarter didnt get enough money for that goal to be fullfiled
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, FNF sucks, their community is toxic as hell.
