kotorwav2mp3 v1.1 (12.74 kB) (http://tonttu.cu.cc/download.php?view.2)
v1.1 is a complete rewrite of the first version.
This package still includes old versions of analyze.exe and bincut.exe as I didn't have the time to rewrite them.
Includes source code for kotorwav2mp3.

kotorwav2mp3.exe
Scans file for MP3 sync byte and copies everything after the first sync byte to new file
Usage: kotorwav2mp3 input [input2] [input3] [...]
To convert all WAV files in a folder you can use kotorwav2mp3 *.wav


File still doesn't work after using kotorwav2mp3?
Perhaps it is WAV file with fake MP3 header
With the help of these 2 tools you can cut at chosen offset

analyze.exe
Analyzes the first 2048 bytes of file and reports all MP3 sync byte and WAVE header offsets
Usage: analyze input [input2] [input3] [...]


bincut.exe
Cuts binary file at chosen offset. Use with analyze to cut at WAVE header or MP3 sync byte
Usage: bincut input offset output


C:\kotorwav2mp3>analyze al_en_starforge.wav
Analyzing the first 2048 bytes of al_en_starforge.wav
Possible MP3 sync byte found at 0x0
Possible MP3 sync byte found at 0x9C
Possible MP3 sync byte found at 0x139
Possible WAVE header found at 0x1D6

C:\kotorwav2mp3>bincut al_en_starforge.wav 0x1d6 new_file.wav



if you already downloaded the first version then this doesn't offer any new features for you (unless you want the source code)
