I just managed to have a look at the WC3MUSIC.TRE file from (presumably) the KS version of WC3, and as expected, I couldn't get much from it. Unlike the raw sound streams used in WC1KS (and presumably WC2KS), WC3MUSIC.TRE is compressed/encoded in a similar or the same format as the music used in the credits for WC3 and WC4 DOS.
Now, I noticed there's an uncompressed WAV file for the WC4 credits in the CIC's music section - it doesn't appear to be recorded a soundcard output, rather it seems to be extracted from the game itself. I've found the credits music in WC3/4, but only in the same garbled format that I found the WC3MUSIC.TRE in.
So, I'm wondering, where did the WC4 credits music from the music section come from? Because if someone managed to extract it that long ago, perhaps it is possible to extract the music from WC3MUSIC.TRE as well. Anyone have any thoughts on this?
