Re-ripping Rayman 1 to lossless

Post by eNLiGhTeNMeNT »

Hi; I've done my share of ripping projects in the past; my last was the Unreal series (getting Unreal Championship 2 ADPCM off X-Box was tricky). While helping with a current attempt to rip Soul Calibur's music, I saw that I had a Rayman soundtrack on my hard drive and wondered where it came from. A lot of searching later, I found this site; nice work putting it together.

My question is, how do you go about ripping the existing Rayman tracks? I'd like to make a FLAC encode.

I've never actually owned Rayman. I acquired what I think is the PC version, and EAC identifies 25 tracks. However, they seem to be multiple tracks within a file, and each one starts off very slightly after the proper beginning of the song. A lot of the soundtrack isn't even on these.

I'm assuming that a simple EAC isn't enough to get at the files, and I can't install until I get DOSBox working or another fix for Vista. My rip also might be bad for some reason. What's the best way to go about ripping the music?

I'm aware that there are some missing tracks too; you might be able to get some help if you post about them in ROMHacking.net's forums with a couple example files. It's a longshot, but maybe someone will help.

Thanks!

iTunes.

Or go to RayTunes and download the music, it's pretty lossless if you ask me. :P
