Miles sound tools is the only available tool which works with KOTOR sounds. unfortunately, it seems to have disappeared from the web.
Does someone still have it?

I seem to be having trouble using Miles on my Windows 7. I get an error message when attempting to open it.

I can get this either just trying to play a sound file. I can also get it when try decompress one.

2. Decompression: However, sometimes I don't get that error message. I'll get a request for a codec.

Might anyone have any suggestions?

No codec for a WAV file? Come on Miles. . . what do I need to make you work?

I guess you have already tried renaming WAV files to MP3 extension. in that way, it works for the KOTOR games bgm and produces an uncompressed WAV file.
Why this happens, however, is beyond my understanding.

I have used Miles Sound Tools for years and I have never had to change the extension.

This by the way has nothing to do with my question - about how to make Miles Sound Tools stable in an Windows 7 OS environment.

I thought it did, at least for question 2.
about stability, no idea. have you tried compatibility mod and/or the XP emulation mode?

OK, an update.

I've previously been trying to use the Win64 version of this but there's another folder that has what I'm guessing is the 32 bit version.

BTW, the Win64 version doesn't have a compatibility mode but the other version does. I still have to do the "change the extension bit" to get it to work but it works.

Is there work around for the codec issue so I skip the extension nonsense? Please reply if anyone does know it.

Thanks for your assistance, Dark Ansem.

By the way, here's the link (http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=20968) that I used for a download of Miles Sound Tools.

Anyone could give me a hint as to where i could find a 64 version of Miles tools ? my old XP comp is dead and now i'm like an idiot with no way to tinker and extract my sound files...

I still have the TSL soundtrack, but I wanted to use some of the other soundfiles and now I feel a little screwed tbh...

Or if you know of any way to decompress the files without Miles, i'll take it in a heartbeat.

Happy new year btw :)

EDIT: appologies, I thought you both gave the same link but the second one worked fine. I'll try extracting my files the old fashioned way, thanks a lot for the link
