I made some progress on the sounds. I simply searched for the text-string "RIFF" as that is the beggining of a *.wav header. I took the block of data before the first one, and removed it:








Then, I wrapped and imported it into audacity as raw data with the above settings, and got two sound effects which I've dropped here:

This is what I like to call segmented sound ripping, as you remove the crap before and then rip each part from the "unknown file" and export individual *.wavs. While this may be a huge pain, this is all we have as of now, as I'm a terrible QuickBMS Script writer. I'm uncertain if those sound effects are distorted or not, but we can at least identify it. Hope this helps somewhat!

These sound distorted. You probably set it to unsigned, not signed.

As well as this, I found something else: there seems to be compression on the files: there is some random static noise playing over part of each file. This is gonna be hard to rip...

Firstly, no compression is found on the *.DAT, as the hex-strings are literally written out in ANSI text, and I've used the BMS script shown above to extract these wav's. Here's the link:

Sadly, until someone else who knows how to script can write a better one, and or a sample converter, you will have to manually wrap each one with raw data into Audacity using these settings:

Encoding: Unsigned 8-bit PCM
Byte order: Little-endian
Channels: 1-channel (Mono)
Start offset: 0
Sample-Rate: 22050 Hz

Any issues, please feel free to reply, and sorry for the late answer!

Still has a major issue: the entire file is contaminated by random static and clipping overriding the sample data, and some files have more than one clip in them.
