I want to Delete the "Pull over now!" voices from GTA. I've found where they are, but I don't know of a program to use to delete the corresponding .wav files within GTA's Invaud files.

 

Which program can I use to remove them?

 

I've tried:

 

SparkIV, but obviously it can only export .wavs

 

GTAinvaud 1.1.5, but it can't open voice files.

 

I found flitskikker's IV Audio Toolbox, but when I download it, COMODO detects malware within the .exe.

 

Audacity can't read Invaud files.

 

What would you all recommend to delete a .wav?

GTA-IVaud v1.1.5, I'm not sure how the game will react to the missing audio files though, it'll probably just crash. 

 

...and you updated your post just as I replied. GTA-IVaud is the only one I know of, but as I said, removing the audio files probably isn't a good idea.

Thanks for the quick reply. I was adding more info to my post and I didn't think anyone would respond so quickly.

 

I was hoping the game would run fine. I added female police officers to the game, with their own voices, which are missing some .wav files and it seems to run fine. But I don't know much about modding so this may be an incorrect assumption that the game would run fine without the "Pull over" .wavs

I've never removed audio files before, but knowing how temperamental GTA IV is I figured it would probably just crash, lol. You'll just have to experiment. 

 

Are the voice files different to those of the weapons and horns/sirens (in terms of format)? I would of assumed GTA-IVaud wouldn't have any problems opening them. 

Yeah unfortunately horns and sirens are a different format it seems. I have no problems editing them.

 

In the end it isn't a deal breaker for me. It kinda ruins the flavor for me when I pull someone over and my officer screams "Pull over, Assh**e!" Other people in different threads have suggested to just use the Noose or FBI officers, but I would like to keep the other voices is the reason why I was searching for this specific solution.

In my experience editing GTA 4 audio you need to replace sounds you cant just delete them as the game crashes as it can't find the resources it needs to run. this causes the game to suffer a fatal error. you could just unplug your microphone if you have any plugged in and record a sound track with no sound and then just rename and insert into the ivaud. then the game plays that sound which in reality is no sound. but thats what I do to combat my errors when removing sounds you may not even experience these errors. just a way to get round it if you do.

That sounds like a good solution, but which program do you use to edit the voices? Gta IVaud editor tells me that is does not support compressed audio Ivaud files. When I open those files the editor crashes.
