Symphony Sounds Unpacker/Packer
Hi guys,
I recently downloaded the Symphony sounds unpacker/packer, but I can't get it to work.
I'm aware that it can only be opened using command lines, but I'm not sure what command I'm supposed to type in.
I've tried copying the lines I found on the symphony main page, but I've had no luck so far.

If anyone could write down what exact command line I'm supposed to type in to access the sound files for Empire: total war I would greatly appreciate it.
Cheers.
Dave

Re: Symphony Sounds Unpacker/Packer
Here is what I use
Unpack
symphony extract "F:\Strategy\Steam\SteamApps\common\napoleon total war" "E:\Game modding\NTW\Steph\Voices\Extract"
Pack
symphony pack "F:\Strategy\Steam\SteamApps\common\napoleon total war" "E:\Game modding\NTW\Steph\Voices\Extract" "C:\Users\Stephane\AppData\Roaming\The Creative Assembly\Napoleon\scripts\user.script.txt" "E:\Game modding\NTW\Steph\Voices\Pack"
Red: folder where NTW is installed
Blue: your working folder where you have the XML/CSV files
Green: path to the user script
Purple: folder where you want to packed files to go

Hi Steph,
I've tried using the method you've pointed out, but it keeps telling me that symphony extract is not a recognised internal or external command. Is there something I'm supposed to type in first before the command? I'm new to this so please forgive my ignorance.
Thanks for your help so far

Re: Symphony Sounds Unpacker/Packer
you have to start if from the folder where you have installed symphony
In my case I start a MS-DOS command, I use dos command such as cd to change the directory, and then I type the command line above.
You could try to create a bat file and use the full path, like c:\MyFolderPath\symphony extract "F:\Strategy\Steam\SteamApps\common\napoleon total war" "E:\Game modding\NTW\Steph\Voices\Extract"
Too bad Crux3D did not transfer the source code of this tool, I could have tried to expand it a little and make a UI for it.

Re: Symphony Sounds Unpacker/Packer
Thanks for your help Steph, I finally got it working.
Is it just me or are some of the sound text files missing? Many of the sounds that are in the game aren't referred to in the text files. I've noticed that when I load my mod with my new sounds pack file, half the sounds in the game are missing.
Have you had this experience and/or know how to resolve it?

Battle sounds such as melee are missing, in addition to the main menu music and the sounds that are generated when you click on a building on the campaign map.

Re: Symphony Sounds Unpacker/Packer
The problem appears to be with the repacking process.
I extracted the sound files from the vanilla install, and then repacked them.
I didn't edit the files in any way. Yet the same issue occurs where sounds are missing.
Any ideas as to how I can resolve this?
