Okay, if anyone laughs at me I am going to be SO miffed tongue.gif I have a full collection of the Mech Warrior series computer games. Just for the heck of it I used AudioGrabber to rip the music tracks of the various missions off of them. AG worked great.

In the beginning of each of these games, there is an exciting video of combat with soundtrack; there are also various combat sounds, explosions, missle launches etc. and I would really like to rip the soundtrack of these also, but for the life of me I can't find them on the disk and AG can't find them. I tried Cdex but it doesn't even recognize the disks so it is useless (unless I am doing something wrong).

Can anyone recommend any other utilities that I can use to try to find those tracks? This is just a kind of "fun" project for me.

Don't know if it'll help, but you can always try Dragon UnPACKer: http://fileforum.betanews.com/detail/Dragon_UnPACKer/943223428/1

Well, Dragon Unpacker didn't work, but I figured it out. Now I have a complete collection of the original Mech Warrior sound tracks. Thanks for your suggestion!

You got it to work using Dragon UnPACKer, or a different method? I'm just curious, as I haven't really tried using that tool for anything, yet. smile.gif

Nope. Dragon unpacker was useless. I am not sure what it is supposed to do, but definitely not what I needed.
