Yes - YAF converts to AT3.

Why convert YAF to AT3?

YAF (Yuke's Audio Archive) is used by WWE SmackDown! vs. Raw 2008-2011, and its tracks are stored as either CRI ADX or Sony .AT3 ATRAC3. On the Sony platforms (PS2/PSP/PS3) AT3 is common, so people extract the archive to recover the original .at3 streams for playback or music swaps.

  • YAF Extractor runs only on Windows and targets the SmackDown! vs. Raw 2008-2011 range.

Frequently asked questions

What is AT3?
AT3 is Sony's ATRAC3, a lossy compressed audio format used widely on PlayStation platforms including in Yuke's WWE games.
Does extracting lower the AT3 quality?
No. The .at3 is copied straight out of the archive, so it is identical to what the game used.
How do I play an AT3 file afterward?
vgmstream (foobar2000 plugin or vgmstream-cli) and Sony's at3tool/ATRACTool can decode .at3 to WAV for listening.
Why are some tracks ADX and some AT3?
Yuke's mixed both codecs; the archive simply preserves whichever format each track was originally encoded in.
