Hi fellows!
I'm currently working on a COMPLETE Score for the amazing adventure "The Dig" by Lucas Arts (for everyone who has never played it: get your hands on it!!!).
My goal is to achieve a soundtrack that plays all the musical pieces and cutscenes in the right order. Well, I've just noticed, that this is more difficult than I expected.
Note: The 2 CD PC soundtrack from Mix'n'Mojo is NOT complete!
Ok, first of all, we need to extract and convert the music from the "DIGMUSIC.BUN": use "Game Extractor" from Watto Studios for the extraction. I can't remember where to find the tool to convert the .IMU files to .WAV, but a thorough Google search should link to some really old site with a tool I think... =)
Now, we rename the files. Don't ask me how long it took to find out these names... To rename the files, use the following list with the intended file names. It also contains a pre-tagging and is loosely sorted. A * shows that I don't know yet where the track is played.

Some notes:
- The Tracks from "The Nexus" are played when standing in front of each door that leads to the specified area.
- I first thought that the Tram (~~~) Tracks play in the tram platforms but when I played the game I recognized that the music, that plays there seems to be not included in the above list: The tracks that are played here are looped and have a length of about 30-40 seconds. (I currently try to record them out of the game)
- All video sequences are stored in the \VIDEO\ folder. There is a Smush Player, that comes with the ScummVM source code. I have asked a pal if he can compile it for me. Currently I record the videos directly out of the game. For this I have to turn down music and speech to 0, because sometimes the music overlaps with the video sound!
- when you download the PC soundtrack from Mix'n'Mojo, you'll realize that for example the track "The Descent" plays in the Asteroid chapter, which apparently is NOT right. I don't know where other pieces play; still have to figure that out.
Here's a list of the videos I have recorded so far. I noted the file names I suspect to belong to the recorded sequences. The videos are already sorted.
1. Intro (5:14) - SQ1.SAN
2. The Asteroid: Attila's Plastic Surgery (1:36) - SQ2.SAN
3. The Asteroid: Into the Tunnel (0:35) - ASTTUN.SAN
4. Interlude: Travelling to Cocytus (1:09) - SQ3.SAN
5. The Nexus: Tram to the Museum Spire (0:24) - TRAM1.SAN
6. The Nexus: Resurrecting Brinks (0:14) - SQ4.SAN
7. Museum Spire: Display (0:29) - ???.SAN
8. Museum Spire: Tram To The Nexus (0:18) - RTRAM1.SAN
I actually made a personal soundtrack once but as the movies where missing I try now to really complete it and sort the tracks anew.
Ok, who wants to help me from here? ;)
