yup ive got all the files on hard drive
The commands are different now if you are using the latest scummvm tools.
First of all you must have a monster.sou file.
Do you have ogg encoder? You don't, get it here. Oggenc1.1.1 179kb.
Get yourself the Scummvm tools from here. Tools link 184kb. Choose a mirror to download from.
Extract the downloaded zip and rename it scummvmtools to wherever you want but make a note of the path i.e. c:\scummvmtools as you will be using command prompt to run the program as there is no GUI.
Okay copy the Monster.sou file to the Scummvmtools folder. Also copy the oggenc.exe to the Scummvmtools folder.
Next press your windows key or click start, click on run, type in cmd.
Type: cd c:\scummvmtools (or the path you made) to get into the folder. If you type dir you will get a list of the files in the folder, you should see your monster.sou file and a file called compress_scumm_sou.
Type: compress_scumm_sou --vorbis monster.sou (or copy and paste this into the command line).
All being well you should get a monster.sog file at the end of it, it will take a while so find something else to do like play on your GP32 B)
I am currently encoding my Full Throttle Monster.sou as I type as I couldn't remember how to do it without doing it! :rolleyes: and I wanted to make sure that the steps I have written are correct and can be followed.
