WD files are not being converted to either .DLS or .SF2 (Kingdom Hearts 1-2)

Open XaikuTheMaverickHunter opened this issue 6 years ago • 5 comments

WD files are not being converted with no explanation as to why.

  1. Extract WD files from Kingdom Hearts 1-2 (make sure that only the WD files are there).
  2. Load the WD files and attempt to convert to either .DLS or .SF2

Nothing happens. No respective file or error message is generated. VGMTrans doesn't crash, however, and continues to otherwise function normally

Desktop (please complete the following information):

  • OS: [e.g. Windows 10]
  • VGMTrans Interm version 02/25/2017
  • N/A (No log/error message)
  • Kingdom Hearts

This happened with WD files that did not come with their own BGM, possibly due to a dumping error.

could you clarify this?

I was using a program called "new-kh-dumper," and apparently, it skipped over some of KH1's BGM files without giving me any sort of reason why it did so, while still dumping the respective WD files, so right now, I'm just assuming that it was a dumping error, considering that more recently, someone else successfully dumped all of those respective files and even made (mostly) working PSF2 files out of them.

Is this still an issue? I have never managed to reproduce the problem. There's lots of bad PSF(2) dumps around that are good enough for playback but not for conversion because of mismatches BGM/WD tags.

I apologize for the long silence. I was distracted by other things, so I haven’t experimented with that since I first posted about it.

As discussed in #287, it may not be possible to export DLS/SF2 without making a collection manually, maybe? In any case, I feel it is not good that VGMTrans sometimes fails to operate without giving any reason. I also suffer from it sometimes.
