[Open Source Release] FIFA Legacy Trax Tool

[Emran_Ahm3d]

(Version 0.6.0: Sepetmber 28, 2024)​

I know I'm 11 years late, but here I am.

Introduction​

The FIFA Legacy Trax Tool is the first-ever GUI tool that allows you to compile custom songbanks and import them into FIFA 14, 15, and 16.
While the current beta release has limited features, more will be added as development progresses. The tool may feel a bit rough around the edges, but it works effectively.

Usage​

To add a song to your songbank, click the "Add Song" button. Note that the files must meet the following criteria:
Format: MP3
Sample Rate: 44100 Hz
Bitrate: 256 kbps
Channel: Stereo

After adding your desired number of songs, ensure that you input the correct metadata for each. Next, navigate to the SongPlaylistLinks tab, where you can assign the songs to your chosen slots in the playlist.
Keep in mind that the playlist can hold a maximum of 59 songs.

Once you've assigned the songs, click "Compile Songbank" to finalize the process. Exit the tool and locate the "playlistfiles" folder. Copy the first three files and paste them into the appropriate game directory:
For FIFA 14: FIFA 14/Game/audiodata/eatrax
For FIFA 15: FIFA 15/audiodata/eatrax
For FIFA 16: FIFA 16/audiodata/eatrax

Finally, go to the "tables" folder and import the two text tables into your game's database using DB Master (found inside the "DB Master" folder).
Once you've regenerated the game files, you're ready to enjoy your custom soundtrack!

Song Artworks​

The song artwork files can be found inside the "song-artwork" folder. These are placeholders for illustration purposes, but you can copy the files to your game folder and modify them to your liking.

FIFA 14 uses two folders for artworks at different resolutions: eatrax (256x256) and eatrax_thumbs (64x64). The artworks are stored in .big files, so you'll need to use FIFA File Explorer 14 or CG File Explorer 16 to edit them.

FIFA 15 has simplified the process by switching from .big files to .dds format. The 64x64 variants are no longer used, so you don't need to worry about editing them. FIFA 16 follows the same format, which is why both games' artworks are in the same folder.

Wow, fantastic news. I am just getting into FIFA 14 Classic Patch and I created my own soundtrack for it. There is an option to upload your own music to FIFA 14 via Windows Media Player playlist, but custom songs in game are being played way too quiet. There is a workaround by adjusting audio sliders within FIFA, but game always starts louder and then its loading the settings and making rest of the sounds quieter for music to be better heard. I did a little bit of modding in the past (mostly in PES) so I thought that I will just replace original tracks with my own, but surprisingly I was not able to find any good tutorial or explanation how to do it. Hopefully your tool will help me with that.

Is this still WIP?

I did but I'm still getting the white screen. I can't seem to find anything wrong with the extraction.

 

[Skoczek]

it's working

 

[pablokks]

Everything seems to be pretty straightforward and simple however... I don't have "audiodata" and "eatrax" folders in "Game" folder of FIFA 14. I have EA app (former Origin) FIFA 14 with a lot of languages to choose including Polish, Czech, Hungarian or Russian. I can't find "eatrax_01" & "eatrax_02" files ether. Any idea how to locate them?

EDIT: I have found "audiodata/eatrax/eatrax_01.sbs" and "eatrax_02.sbs" files stored in "data2.big" and "audiodata/eatrax/eatrax_01.sbr" and "eatrax_02.sbr" in "data1.big". All within "Game" directory ofc

 

[vietcuong]

I get the same error when I open the program. I downloaded everything correctly. What could it be?

 

[CG2400]

Hello Greetings I already tried the Tool to Import songs into FIFA, Thanks to its creator for his work. I noticed some details, such as that only when the Tool was connected to the Internet (at least for me in the tests I did) If I am disconnected and open the tool, only the white screen appears as others mentioned in the post, however, when connected to the Internet, it does not give an error to open. Otherwise, I imported the songs correctly and created the playlist correctly, the only error is that it only plays the first imported song and then repeats it again. and it does not play the others. (I did the tests on FIFA 14,16)

Have you imported the tables to your db?

 

[pablokks]

After a little bit of hustle that I had at the beginning (see my previous post), I can confirm that the tool is fully working. I have imported over 25 songs now, all of them playing flawlessly. Thank you Emran_Ahm3d for making it possible for people like me. Finally I can enjoy a Classic Patch with proper classic songs that I used to hear while playing different classic patches in the past.

I don't know if it's the same with everyone but the tool finally works for me only after connecting to the internet just like @CG2400 mentioned.

 

[Max_1988]

Have you imported the tables to your db?

Is there any way to modify it so that it also works without an internet connection?

Update: I tried to open the program connected to the Internet but I still get a blank screen.
