I was only googling star wars sound files yesterday and learnt about this game.  I would love a copy of the files when you are finished.  If the same could be done with the other games available it would be a brilliant additional resource for editing any of the films. 

Yes no problem there are a lot here and i am working though them so as soon as they are ready I will let you know. Not sure how to share them so might just upload to my drop box then email out the link to anyone who wants them, or is there a better way?

I know others on this forum have extracted sound files from a lot of the SW games on the ps2 onwards. I couldn't find anybody with the PM games though and I have it in front of me which is why I thought I should do my bit.

Do you have any SW game sound files?

Do you have any of the other SW games for the ps1?

TPM game that came out in 1999 on PS1 and PC is a valuable source of sound files for any potential fan edit of the PT specifically TPM.

As well as background atmospherics for all the main locations there are also bits of dialog from the main characters that don't appear in the movie itself.

The files are compressed into a file type: IMC which nearly all sound and video editing software has trouble reading.

Indeed it was only a handful of Lucas Arts games that used this file type. I have managed to find a way to decompress IMC and save as WAV.

I have decided to collect these files for a pending phantom edit I plan to do myself. Until then there are several fan editors hard at work which these files could help benefit.

 

I am now half way through the sound files on the disc, should have the lot in a day or so.......

I have just started a new topic which I think may be relevant to this one so here is the link:

http://originaltrilogy.com/forum/topic.cfm/Episode-1-TPM-game-sounds-files/topic/15201/

Anybody who is interested in the files let me know.

Filming new TeeCee-Fourthreepio elements would be great, when combined with making the Gungans speak another language. If only it was so easy as that?

Not impossible, if we cut C3P0 from AOTC we can then use those shots, rota him as a separate element then re-color and composite onto different footage or new backgrounds.

Oh okay cool. Let me know when you have that done.

Yes I agree its a lot of work but its something I have been thinking about doing since reading this thread.

If it was to be done how could the new footage be used? Effectively if it was done we would then have a silver TC4EPO as a layer that could be incorporated into existing footage, again though what?

any thoughts?

Ok so i wonder what ratio of the neg was scanned for 97 new shots?

Also all of the special effects shots were digitally com-posited which is a fair few.

So the data was from the 2k scan?

My opinion is  that when the original negative was washed back in 1995 it was re-assembled without the insertion of any new material

I hope so, but is that based on any specific info?

 

Unfortunately only my very literal interpretation of this statement!

That meant dissecting the original Star Wars negative, washing it, and then reassembling it. "That made everybody suck in their breath, " Kennedy says, recalling the stressfull situation. "Thankfully, Robert Hart, the neg cutter on the second and third films, came in to put the negative back together

http://www.theasc.com/magazine/starwars/articles/sped/ssws/pg1.htm

There is no mention in the above paragraph of any insertions of new  negative(featuring CGI effects).

Also inserting new negative into the original negative would be counter productive----it would mean that you would have to run the entire original negative(with the new inserts)  through a pin registered mechanism in order to print off a new 1st generation interpositive......running the risk of doing even more damage to that original neg.(much like the situation with the Godfather)

Much easier to go back to the original negs(that were not part of the original negative---confusing ain't it!) and use those for your new(as it would have been in 1997) special edition negative....combining these new negs(featuring the CGI) with 3rd generation internegative material.

Sorry I know it is infuriatingly confusing.....when I get time I will do a pictorial representation which should help to better illustrate the points I am trying to make.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Wasn't the O-neg washed and cleaned, scanned, CGI special edition adjustments made plus other elements that were also scanned, then this master digital file is then printed out to a new master negative?

This negative was then rescanned at 1080p to save compression problems from using the 2K digital file.

This 1080p scan is then what Lowry worked on ahead of the ILM coloring.

Correct me if i am wrong please.

Also I have been reading these forums for many years but only just started to post and add my two pence worth.

I remember Phantom looking good in the cinema back in the day but the dvd and BR never looked right.

sorry was meant for your 35mm PT post.

Hi emanswfan I have read through the many posts on these forums for the last few years, but this is my first time posting.

Really excited about your project, try as we all do to forget the PT they are still there and many of us here seem to have a huge desire to see watchable versions.

Out of the 3 films which one has been the most challenging to edit in your opinion?
