Where are the soundfiles for the talking heads?

[coldroll]

I've discovered how to convert the acm sound files from Fallout 1 and 2 into wav files. And I've extracted all the sounds but where are the sound files for the talking heads located? Any help on this subject would be much appreciated. Is it possible that they're hard coded into the game and if so is there any way to extract them?

They are in the dat file along with all the others. Sound/Speech IRRC... It's been a while since I looked in there.

Each head has their own folder, along with a Narrator folder for Perlman's narration.

The Utility ACM2WAV converts them; there is also a WinAmp plugin that allows WinAmp to play ACMs.

Ah, so there in a dat file just like the Command and conquer games use, is there some kind of program that I can open the dat file with? Thanks for answering my previous question by the way.

Well the tools are in the downloads section ~or they are supposed to be; I cannot get the page to load.

I went to the downloads page and found a program called dat explorer and it worked thanks!
