<p>Peter Swinkels: </p> <hr /> <div>There is a variation of the Electronic Arts library file (*.lib) format described on the main page used by &quot;The Lost Files of Sherlock Holmes: The Case of the Serrated Scalpel&quot;. There are the following differences:<br /> <br /> 1. The signature is the string &quot;LIB&quot; followed by the byte 0x1A.<br /> <br /> 2. There is no byte between the file name and offset. BTW: It appears that this byte indicates whether or not the file in question is the last one. Can any one confirm this?<br /> <br /> I wrote a program in VB.Net that extract the library files described on the main page and the variation I described.<br /> <br /> It can be downloaded from VBForums.com: [http://www.vbforums.com/showthread.php?787451-Electronic-Arts-library-file-extractor EA Library Extractor]<br /> <br /> [[User:Peter Swinkels|Peter Swinkels]] ([[User talk:Peter Swinkels|talk]]) 18:30, 2 February 2015 (UTC)<br /> <br /> : The variations you describe sound like [[LIB Format (Mythos Software)]], as used by [[The Lost Files of Sherlock Holmes: The Case of the Serrated Scalpel]]. -- [[User:Malvineous|Malvineous]] ([[User talk:Malvineous|talk]]) 23:13, 2 February 2015 (UTC)<br /> <br /> :: Oops, I mistakenly assumed that &quot;The Lost Files of Sherklock Holmes&quot; had also been developed by Electronic Arts.

<p>Peter Swinkels: </p> <hr /> <div>I used to and (some times still) play a lot of MS-DOS games and have also tried to reverse engineer and modify them. Programming languages I'm familiar with: Quick Basic, Visual Basic(.NET), assembly language, HTML, JavaScript/VBScript and some C/C++.<br /> <br /> I have almost completely reverse engineered Cartooners' (year 1988/1989, developer: IDTA, publisher: Electronic Arts, MS-DOS version) actor file (*.act) format and made a program that import and export actor templates. It can be downloaded at: <br /> [http://www.vbforums.com/showthread.php?759753-Cartooners-Actor-Viewer-export-and-import-actors VBForums post]<br /> <br /> Right now I have also made a start at analysing Cartooners' music (*.mus) files. Unfortunately I know very little about MIDI music and the specifics of how soundcards work. Although there is a lot of information in this regard on the internet, I could still use any help offered. A document describing what I already know about the *.mus file format can be downloaded at: [http://www.euronet.nl/users/swinkels/ .mus (music) file format information.]<br /> <br /> Alright, I just made some progress. It appears that the last byte in a .mus file controls whether or not the music is restarted after the last note has been played. (0x80 = Restart the music. 0x81 = Stop playing the music.)<br /> <br /> In an attempt to organize all the information I found and added myself, I made a minimal website which can be found at:<br /> [http://www.euronet.nl/users/swinkels http://www.euronet.nl/users/swinkels]<br /> <br /> Alright, I moved the Cartooners *.mus (music) format information to a wiki: [http://fileformats.archiveteam.org/wiki/Electronic_Arts_MUS Electronic Arts MUS]. Since I've little experience with wiki's it's a bit sloppy. I'll likely try to clean it up a little later.</div>

<p>Peter Swinkels: </p> <hr /> <div>Hello! :)<br /> <br /> I see that you seek information regarding soundcards. In case you've missed it, here's an excelent guide regarding SB:<br /> http://web.archive.org/web/20100425014332/http://www.shipbrook.com/jeff/sb.html<br /> <br /> In addition, feel free to check out the standalone OPL player in the OpenTitus project (sourceforge). It uses a modified version of DosBox' OPL emulator.<br /> <br /> Have a nice day! :)<br /> <br /> [[User:Eirik|Eirik]] ([[User talk:Eirik|talk]]) 17:57, 17 April 2014 (GMT)<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Ok, I will have a look. Thanks.<br /> <br /> [[User:Peter Swinkels|Peter Swinkels]] ([[User talk:Peter Swinkels|talk]]) 18:39, 18 April 2014 (GMT)<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> It might have taken a while, but I finally noticed your reference to OpenTitus, I also took a look at the website with technical soundcard information. With regard to OpenTitus, though it is a project in which some one else appears to have reverse engineered a game's music file format, I'm not sure how useful it might be for me when it comes to reverse engineering Cartooner's music files. As far I know Titus the Fox/Moktar was developed by a completely different developer and uses different file formats.<br /> <br /> Regarding the page about sound cards you linked to, I have found similar pages before and I have had some success with programming for soundcards in Qbasic. You might want to look at this tutorial I wrote years ago: [http://web.archive.org/web/20010329195600/http://www.euronet.nl/users/swinkels/tutorial/sounds.htm Qbasic sound(card) tutorial]. Not too long ago I wrote a Qbasic program dealing with frequency modulation.
