Converting Your Files

Before you can use your audio files, you’ll probably need to convert them to a format your game supports.

Yona is recommended since it includes pre-made encoders for multiple games. Quick Convert also streamlines converting and looping multiple files at once.

If you’re not sure what the correct format for your game is, check the Game Encoders page.

Replacing Audio

Ryo Framework supports replacing audio played with various methods, but most supported games will be using Cues.

If you’re not sure what your game uses, check the Reloaded Console with Developer Mode enabled.

Cues

The most common type of audio played.

To replace Cues, you need two pieces of data: the ACB Name it’s from and its Cue ID or Cue Name.

If you don’t know them, the easiest way to figure them out is get the audio to play in-game with Ryo Framework’s Developer Mode enabled.

ACB Folder

In the game’s folder, create a folder with the ACB Name ending with .acb. This is an ACB Folder.

In an ACB Folder, there are two methods to replace a Cue.

Cue File

The simplest method, just add a file named the same as the Cue ID or Cue Name.

Cue Folder

Slightly more advanced, but with some extra features. Create a folder named the same as the Cue ID or Cue Name ending with .cue. This is a Cue Folder.

Inside the Cue Folder, add your replacement file(s). In a Cue Folder, not only do file names not matter but adding multiple files will automatically randomize the Cue.

A very easy method for adding something like music randomization to a game.
