Converting the FFXI music files to "listenable" muFollow

I'd like to put some of these music files onto a music CD. Who wouldn't like the Sanctuary of Zitah's music? Anyway, if anyone knows a program or some fancy editing that I need to do, let me know. Thanks.

EDIT: Ha.. I don't know why I wouldn't just type out "music", but that's what I meant to type in the subject.

I'm your forum stalker. >:) Anyway, I have no idea. I just thought I would mock your typing.

Yes sir I do

It's in Japanese but pretty self explanatory. This will only convert them to .WAV (and vice versa, if you wanted to add your own music >_>). If you want MP3, you'll need to find another converter.

To use it, click the button (don't pay any attention to the music names in the right hand pane, just use them as a guide as to what .bgw is what) under BGW>WAV, then you will get an Open File dialog box. Locate the .bgw you want converted to .wav, and then double click it. It will look like your computer froze for a moment. This is normal! After you regain control, your .wav is dumped in the folder under the same name as the .bgw.

A tip, I would recommend copying and pasting the .bgw files onto your desktop to prevent any "lethal" damage to the game. Lord knows it could happen.

You can find a pretty much completed list of the music and where they come from, and how to edit BG music (I set my Overworld Party Battle theme to a cutscene piano part in a minor cord, really cool sounding). Go to: Gamefaqs And type in "Final Fantasy XI" in the search box (Gasp, if you've failed this far do not try to go any further... ;), guess what comes next... thats right click on the FAQ part of the FFXI link. Go to the Hijacked Music thing under the Faq list, it gives a great description of how to change things and the said list of music, and it has the same link for the Japanese Util. that was linked too earlier, I forgot what it was called...
