The decoder will offer to delete files in "Game Files" so you don't accidentally decode the same files again.
Depending on the number and size of the files it can take a while, let it run until you see the ASCII tornado.
Things you should know about the decoder: Once finished you can find all decoded files inside the "MP3" or "OGG" folder respectively. Some of the largest VO containers have over 500! Fortunately they are all properly labeled with episode, character, location, action and mood after unpacking.įor example: VO_E2_2A.STM_15~Cue_E2_2A_Diner_ChloePuzzle02Happy_IGE_Chloe_200.oggįind any containers you want to decode and copy them to the "Game Files" folder inside Wwise Unpacker (they can be either PCK or BNK, the unpacker handles it), then simply open "Unpack to MP3.bat" or "Unpack to OGG.bat" depending on which you like and it will do all the work for you. Keep in mind these are containers, inside each there could be either one or hundreds of audio files.
Voice files are inside "English(US)" in each folder, they start with "VO_" (Voice-over).
Inside each folder you will find the following types of files which are quite self explanatory: You can just search for *.PCK or *.BNK but I prefer the following method: go to the game folder (C:/Program Files (x86)/Steam/steamapps/common/Life Is Strange) and search for "WwiseAudio" which will show you the audio folder for each chapter. Life is Strange uses Wwise audio so files are packaged in either.
Now we have to find the audio files to unpack.
