Interesting. I just noticed that Shinatama's lines in the Training level about watching Karen fight are not listed here. I extracted the SUBTsubtitles file, and they're not there. And the line of instructions about getting up on the crate to watch the fight is missing from the SUBTmessages file. What gives? --[[User:Iritscen|Iritscen]] 14:55, 22 August 2009 (UTC)

The instruction in question seems to be "xfite", in SUBTmessages. --[[User:Iritscen|Iritscen]] 14:58, 23 June 2012 (CEST)

==How to hear unused lines in-game==
Let's say you're interested in Konoko's unused [[Quotes/Speech#Tower|tower-cleared line]]. For lines listed as UNUSED, you can play them if you enter <code>chr_talk 0 ''OSBD_name''</code> in the [[DevMode|developer console]]. But how do you know the name of the OSBD? The OSBD name is typically the letter 'c', followed by the number assigned to the line, plus the speaker; however the speaker name sometimes varies unexpectedly, e.g. SNDDc11_41_01'''b'''konoko. To reliably find a line of dialogue with a given number, e.g. 03_12_01, you can run the [[OniSplit]] command <code>-export:03_12_01 ''dest_dir'' level3_Final.dat</code> to perform a partial name match and obtain the file. If you don't want the file because you only plan to play it in-game, you can simply perform a '''-list''' command and search the results for the wanted dialogue line's number.
For lines listed as BROKEN, you will need to use the above '''-export''' approach to get the SNDD out of Oni, which you can then convert with OniSplit's '''-extract''' command to WAV/AIFF. --[[User:Iritscen|Iritscen]] ([[User talk:Iritscen|talk]]) 19:46, 28 March 2026 (UTC)

Mystery lines

Interesting. I just noticed that Shinatama's lines in the Training level about watching Karen fight are not listed here. I extracted the SUBTsubtitles file, and they're not there. And the line of instructions about getting up on the crate to watch the fight is missing from the SUBTmessages file. What gives? --Iritscen 14:55, 22 August 2009 (UTC)

How to hear unused lines in-game

Let's say you're interested in Konoko's unused tower-cleared line. For lines listed as UNUSED, you can play them if you enter chr_talk 0 OSBD_name in the developer console. But how do you know the name of the OSBD? The OSBD name is typically the letter 'c', followed by the number assigned to the line, plus the speaker; however the speaker name sometimes varies unexpectedly, e.g. SNDDc11_41_01bkonoko. To reliably find a line of dialogue with a given number, e.g. 03_12_01, you can run the OniSplit command -export:03_12_01 dest_dir level3_Final.dat to perform a partial name match and obtain the file. If you don't want the file because you only plan to play it in-game, you can simply perform a -list command and search the results for the wanted dialogue line's number.

For lines listed as BROKEN, you will need to use the above -export approach to get the SNDD out of Oni, which you can then convert with OniSplit's -extract command to WAV/AIFF. --Iritscen (talk) 19:46, 28 March 2026 (UTC)
