So, I decided to rip and upload Arc Rise Fantasia, since I want to do something nice back for the people at FFShrine :) This is my first uploaded rip, so yeah!

So... here it is!



Megaupload was being really, really mean to me, so I uploaded it to my (and a friend's) personal site, and it will be going down without a heads-up notice whenever I want, but I'll try to keep it up for at least a week or two... I'll update the OP, though, if something does happen.

Megaupload link to the full thing: (thank you kqelol!):

Look at the text file to see in detail what music is in each file. The text file is located here:
Arc Rise Fantasia - Information.txt (http://artsap.org/arf/Arc%20Rise%20Fantasia%20-%20Information.txt)

The music files are as follows:
Arc Rise Fantasia Game Rip - Battle.rar (http://artsap.org/arf/Arc%20Rise%20Fantasia%20Game%20Rip%20-%20Battle.rar) - 66.1 MB (69,411,951 bytes)
Arc Rise Fantasia Game Rip - Other.rar (http://artsap.org/arf/Arc%20Rise%20Fantasia%20Game%20Rip%20-%20Other.rar) - 16.3 MB (17,160,744 bytes)

The following file is pretty useless. Thought it had some music but is mostly wind, silence, and rustling people. It is here for historical reasons only.
Arc Rise Fantasia Game Rip - Event.rar (http://artsap.org/arf/Arc%20Rise%20Fantasia%20Game%20Rip%20-%20Event.rar) - 113 MB (118,581,059 bytes)

Enjoy :)
Oh, the credit is to vibes, my old online alias from a few years ago. In case you are wondering. We're the same people :-P

Thanks a lot for your rip and the awesome DD site! While I find the battle music stuff to be mediocre, hopefully the rest of this will be great.

Great work !! Thanks devmas

thanks a lot for this huge rip.
i put the folders in a single archive and uploaded it to megaupload so feel free to use this as a mirror and save some bandwidth. didnt change anything.

again, thanks for this.

I won't mirror this now, but if someone asks for a re-upload later I will, everything except for the events though as those files are worthless.

No problem.
and thank you for the upload!
Because of Megaupload blacklisting FFShrine, the link has to be disguised, so it is in the OP as a tinyurl link, it redirects to the upload.

EDIT: Oh, and Sirusjr, thanks as well :) Yeah, the Events seemed to be worthless, but I wasn't too sure at the time if there were music in any of them or not.

Thank you so much for the rip! Just wanted to make a small correction to the tags. Mitome didn't work on this one at all. Replace her with Yuki Harada. Also, the promo album suggests Yoko Shimomura composed several pieces on the soundtrack but I didn't see her name listed in the credits for the game. So for now, I think Mitsuda, Tsuchiya, and Harada should be the only ones listed. I'm not complaining though, I am extremely grateful for the rip of this amazing soundtrack!

Corrections and stuff

Oh... thanks! I'll look into this.
The beginning of the game have the credits displayed, but I didn't see my friend with the game since the day I ripped the game, so I got the information from Wikipedia. Even still, I'm sure the end credits'll have more info.

Speaking of ARF, I noticed that there are two pieces of music not included in this upload; the pop song at the closing credits and the piano piece at the very coda of the game--both are obviously on the Movie Files and can't be ripped (especially since dialogue interrupts the song); so it seems that the only way for these two tracks can be heard is if a full OST is released. Will it ever happen? I'm beginning to feel that it won't, although who knows? There have been lots of games that didn't do too hot in Japan that still got full OST releases. (Tenchu 4, No More Heroes, Metroid Prime, and the recently released Fragile, to name a few.)

Oh my gosh! Thank you sooooo much for this. I've been really hoping that someone would do a rip for this game. I hope you don't mind, but I posted a link to this thread on the Gamingforce boards :)

According to something I saw, it will happen.
Here's a page I found detailing the 13 tracks from the Arc Rise Fantasia soundtrack:

I'm hopeful that it will include the two missing tracks inside the movie files as well.

Also, at the poster above, no problem :) I hope you didn't link them to the site, and you linked the, either to this page or the tinyurl link, though. I'm going to have to remove the files from my personal site soon anyway. It has unlimited bandwidth, but I don't know if I can fully believe that...

Devmas, I actually linked to both this thread as well as directly to the above poster's mirror. Hopefully these links will stay active for awhile.

I've had a chance to listen through the whole rip once and I'm going through a second time right now. It's really great stuff! I'm pleasantly surprised by Mitsuda's two underlings' contributions. I'm expecting good things from those two in the future.

I'm glad you hope so, even though Mr. Mitsuda has said that there aren't plans to release a full OST right now... but who knows. (Then again, he hasn't released one to "World Destruction", which, interestingly enough, he's going to remix for the U.S. release. I wonder if we'll see one of that then?)

Can someone reupload please ? I know it's a 3 years old thread but I really want these game rip ^^.
