So I have been desperately trying to obtain the jp voice files for fire Emblem fates, and the only thing I could ever get were the my room voices. I really would like to have the 800 other voice clips from all the other characters for creating themes in the future. I have researched every day for about a month now, and I still cant figure it out. I did braindump on my fates special edition cia (jp) got a rom fs and an exe fs. I used ctrtool to get the files within them, but again, I could only find the my room files. My theory is that they are in the file IRON15_sound.bcsar, but I cant figure out how to get the sounds out of them. I used Team fails cwav dumper v.5 and got what seems to be all of the files I need, but none of them work on my foobar with vgmstream. Did I do something wrong here? Is there an extra step to using vgmstream with foobar? Someone please help I'm literally pulling my hair out over this. Thanks

BCSARs usually don't contain voice samples, really. You sure you've searched the whole romfs?
What are the files you got anyway?

This is the contents of the "sound" folder. The other picture is whats in the stream folder, but the rest of it is more map songs and the my room voices. That's why I'm pretty sure its in the Iron15_sound.bcsar
Team failscwav dumper v.5 ( https://gbatemp.net/threads/3ds-cwav-dumper.361437/ ) extracts bcwav files from iron15, but both foobar and winamp on vgmstream can't open and play them. So I'm really lost here. I've found some other threads looking for these files, but I can't seem to find a clear answer anywhere :(
-Edit- Oh yeah and I know that the voice files MUST be in the sound folder because the undub patch files mirror exactly what I posted.

Doesn't the US version have removed lines? It would be within the code be able to add the removed ones back in addition to keeping all the old ones.
I guess you guys will find out once I upload the samples.

    even it looks cool, i still hate smoking and i always hated smoking
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    They're seinen though.
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    But yeah, it also has to do with the fact that stuff are more sexualised

    now
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    even at seinen i am reading, the only one that shows nipples sometimes is Oversized Sextet
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    Like, Urusei Yatsura, I love the manga and the original anime.

    In the original rumiko takahashi works, nudity was common
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    i still havent read the manga. also surprisinly i like both the new and the old anime adaption.
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    Lum being topless and Ranma always topless when turning female wasn't sexual
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    also the old anime adaption of Urusei Yatsura had more fanservice than the manga
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    That's one of the issues I have with ecchi stuff recently, it focuses too much on the sexual aspect, not the comedy effect.
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    The manga had it's fair share.
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    I mean, Lum was supposed to be a one time character
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    ecchi anime focusing too much at fanservice was always a thing
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    Rumiko Takahashi got so much fan email about the character that she brought her back in the manga, it was going to be completely different originally (with the alien of the week type).
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    also i m a takahashi fan and i love ranma
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    There are different ways of fanservice
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    the first manga I bought, was Psychic Academy, when I was like 12?
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:

  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    Great plot too
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
