Multimedia > Downloads > Psychonauts Explorer v1.2.
Utility created and developed by bgbennyboy.
See http://quick.mixnmojo.com/.
Designed to be an "all in one" tool for Psychonauts, this utility allows you to open and view a huge range of content from the game. Encompassing the functions previously featured in Benny's previous two tools, the package dumper and audio ripper, this tool both builds upon and expands what you can do, whilst also integrating additional support for other files. Click the more details link below to see a few of this download's key features.

Changes in version 1.2:
- Partial, experimental Playstation 2 support. To find out if yours is supported, just try it.
- New program icon.
- Added icons for all filetypes.
- Filetype icons now shown in the view menu.
- Various minor cosmetic changes.
- File search tool added.
- File dumping has been completely overhauled - now files never get overwritten.
- Better handling of duplicate files within archives.
- A few Xbox version image files were listed as tga so couldnt be viewed.
- In the .pkg file some PC demo version file types were incorrectly recognised.
- Image previews are now larger and proportional to the window size.
- Renamed the level models and added the correct file extension.
Changes in version 1.1:
- Now uses a new audio decoder created by John Doe.
- Xbox audio codec no longer needed. Audio files are now dumped to regular wav files.
- Essentially every sound in both the Xbox and PC versions work.
- View/save the artwork and textures from each level. (Look inside the .ppf level files).
- Fixed problems with the Xbox version's .ppf and .pkg support.
- Added 'raw dumping' for xbox audio files.
Features from version 1.0:
- Open and dump files from .pkg, .ppf, .isb and .xwb archives.
- Display a preview of (dds) images.
- Save images as JPEG, BMP or PNG.
- Resize and apply a resampling filter to images.
- Extract and save music and speech as wav and ogg files.
- Use both the PC and Xbox versions of Psychonauts.
- View the contents of many other Psychonauts files.
As mentioned previously, this utility is specifically designed to be an "all-in-one" tool, which means that you shouldn't need any additional software to view and edit the game's data. You are able to view most of the game's data through the program itself, with the option of exporting the data out to different formats should you wish to play with them further. No longer are expensive programs such as Photoshop a necessity to simply view the game's artwork.
All of the game's data is generally found in two places. The first, which is where most of the artwork is contained, can be found at the following location:
C:\Program Files\Double Fine Productions\Psychonauts\psychonautsdata2.pkg
The second area is a directory, which contains the game's audio. Many files are used here, with each level having its own set of files. For example, bbmusic.isb contains the music files for the level "Basic Braining", whilst bbvoice.isb contains the speech files for the same level. You can find these audio files at the following location:
C:\Program Files\Double Fine Productions\Psychonauts\WorkResource\Sounds\

A huge thanks is in order for bgbennyboy, who has spent a huge amount of his own time developing and perfecting this monster of a utility. Be sure to check out his website, and let him know if you find any bugs.
