So, I've done some more attempts, following what you said, and I comprehended the funcion of that four files. Listen:

SchemaMetafile_HardDrive.csc contains 1-) the subtitles visualized on video, 2-) the memory pointer that references the each of the DVD* file;

SchemaMetafile_DVD1.csc contains the sounds that are being played by the game, just the sounds!

additionally, the DEFAULT.INI contains these rows:

SchemaMetafileName=SchemaMetafile_HardDrive.csc
SchemaMetafileName_Memory=SchemaMetafile_Memory.csc
SchemaMetafileName_DVD1=SchemaMetafile_DVD1.csc
SchemaMetafileName_DVD2=SchemaMetafile_DVD2.csc
SchemaMetafileName_DVD3=SchemaMetafile_DVD3.csc

that must mean that there's only ONE file in which is stored the schemas, that is SchemaMetafileName_Memory.

More, this mean that's, of consequence, not possibile adding other files that were previously marked in the SchemaMetafileName_Memory itself.

More, I tryed just for fun to extend the DVD* list, adding

SchemaMetafileName_DVD4=SchemaMetafile_DVD4.csc
SchemaMetafileName_DVD5=SchemaMetafile_DVD5.csc
SchemaMetafileName_DVD6=SchemaMetafile_DVD6.csc

but in playing, the game crashes after a few ten of seconds :erg: .

Looks like we are stuck, unless we find the way to add our schemas in
SchemaMetafileName_Memory.

OK, I'm gradually adding the schemas of the personages.

Mmmh... the compiler now took really time to compile it, around 15 minutes, and with files of the pound more of 500 MB...

Wav properties:
Signed 16 bit PCM
1 Channel
44100 Hz...

Maybe I have to reduce it to 22050 Hz?

That's a lot of standing around coffing.

Other than that, and the obvious (potential) problems with copywrite though, that's very cool.

Nothing so much to worry about on that front: just there's this thing about not using the assets from one game in another. With this, I'd say the chances are good you'd get away with it.

And it is impressive that you got it working :thumb:

To revive this old thread and not pollute the new one:

By the way, we managed to replace some of the original sound files with German ones (we'll see if we manage to translate TDS) by re-creating the csc files with the perl script. However, the lipsync data didn't make it into the package somehow although we even used real wav-files the second time (you need the schemas, oggs and wavs afaik). So just in case anyone knows about that...

Just check all the download links here if you like: (http://www.eidosforum.de/showthread.php?t=271&page=4)
(we recorded German kurshok voices - although they are merely temporary - and replaced Hammerites and guards with voices from TDP/TMA to get an idea; unfortunately we have no material for guards being flashbombed or when they are led to a scene of crime and start searching there, that's why there are always English parts left)
