Hello to all,
Love the game but the background music is not my cup of tea. I tried deleting all the files in music folder and copying several of my favorite background ambient music files into it. That gave me error on start up. (Glad I backed up the music folder first). So obviously some music is tied to specific events. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. [:)]
Good day Masterchief!
The best and safest way to change the music is as a theme. In other words, create in the customization
directory the sub-directory of /Music, then place your wanted music files in there. Give your
theme a name (ie. My Music). Then when you start your new game, just change the theme from 'Default'
to 'your named theme'. Remember that the files must be in MP3 audio format compatible with Windows
Media Player 9 or better. Also, if you're playing a theme/mod already, just add a music subdirectory
in the directory of the theme you are playing, then add your music files to that. When you restart
your game, that music should be playing.
You can also just back up the original DW Sounds/Music directory as you've done and add your
music in there. I would suggest you leaving the file named "Distant Worlds Theme". That might be
afaik the only actual music file you need. Hope this helps! [:)]
