What kinds of soundtracks are there?
In addition to the official original soundtracks, there are other types of scores that I will discuss on this page. Unfortunately, not every development team / publisher has the leisure or the necessary budget to offer an OST - or it has simply been forgotten. For this reason, users sometimes have to get involved and extract or 'rip' the tracks from game directories. The result is called a gamerip and is usually very extensive, as all the tracks are usually extracted; and the tracks are named as they were stored by the developers. This is usually functional and not very informative, but with a little imagination or hard-working communities you can sometimes find 'nicer' track names than, for example, bf_ambient01.
