A while back, an acquaintance of mine asked about resource ripping programs for HE games on these forums. Since there didn't seem to be any, I wrote my own little utility for extracting the music from HE4 and DMU files. I don't know how much interest there is in this, but maybe it'll be useful to someone.

Download here -- C++ source included

See the readme for instructions, or just put the files you want to rip in the directory and run he4rip.bat. If you happen to have any of the 3DO HE games lying around, you can do the same with dmurip.bat to extract the higher-quality DMU music from those games.

These programs should work on every SCUMM HE game up to and including Backyard Basketball. I don't have any games from later than that to test it on, so it may not work for the most recent games like Backyard Basketball 2004.

If you come across any bugs or other issues, please let me know!
