Extract-PSXCrashVGM

This is a PowerShell script for extracting music data from the game files of the Crash Bandicoot trilogy.

Requirements

• PowerShell >=7.3
• CrashEdit

Usage

1. Copy the Crash.dll included with CrashEdit to the directory where this script is located.
2. Execute this script as follows :

Extract-PSXCrashVGM.ps1 -Path E:/S*/*.NSF -Destination ./dst/ -GameVersion 6

3. .SEP, .VH, and .VB files are saved in the directory specified by the -Destination option.

4. You can convert these files to PSF using tools such as VGMToolbox.
   Generic PSF drivers can play the sounds, but the quality will be very poor. So I recommend the use of the custom driver.
   The driver directory contains the PSF driver stub for the Japanese version of Crash Bandicoot 3. If you own a different game, please modify the address references.
