raw2gba

Converts raw files into an array of C bytes (can be used for loading sound files into the Game Boy Advance).

This program only relies on gcc. To compile, run make. However in this repo, I included a compiled .exe for windows users.

Usage

First of all you need to convert the audio file (.mp3, .wav,...) to a .raw file. The program I used is Switch Sound File Converter.

Select the .raw file extention and use the signed 8-bit mode when converting your audio. Otherwise you'll find yourself with distorted audio on the GBA.

To convert a raw file to a .h file for usage in programming for a GBA you use the following command:

raw2gba sound.raw

(Path variables might need to be added if an error occurs)
