I have managed to gain a copy of the original music tracks from the game. they were all in .ogg format and i had to simply convert them to mp3. I have them working in game. In addition, i found this very nice remake of the opening theme from the original game which i think will make a perfect selection for the menu screen...
first, here is the original theme > Defender of the Crown theme
the orchestrated version > Defender of the Crown theme
In addition to this, i have as stated changed the original sound track from .ogg into .mp3. tracks include:
Raiding a Castle theme
Meeting robin of Locksley theme
Rescuing a Princess theme
Garrison theme
Tournament theme
Tournament won theme
Game Victory theme
I had issues at first cause i could not find any of the pieces of music individually and only found copies of them all in one track played one after the other. So i downloaded a sound editor for free and chopped it up 
.
After i had done that i came across some new updated versions of the game music. So i have a few different versions.
I am not sure if i want to use all the music for the mod tho. Cause i dont think any of it has that Total War feel to it which i think it requires. the music i have though could possibly be used for specific events, if im able to figure out the music .txt files. As an example of what i mean:
Code:
type mission_spy_settlement
event
folder data/sounds/SFX/Campaign_Map
mission_spy_settlement.mp3
end
Where i would simply put the mp3 i wish to use for that event...
the original DotC game allowed the player to conduct Castle Raids and Rescue Princesses etc. I have thought of ways to impliment this into the game as stated in the WIP thread, but after rethinking about it i dont like my original approach. So i was thinking using spies as 'raiders'. They are then able to spy on other settlements etc. when they spy on a settlement then i can use a script to play out the 'Castle Raid' and just use a series of pop-up events to tell the story of the 'raid'.
I could then set up Assassins in a similar way to rescue princesses. - assassinate the general in the settlement holding the princess captive and you rescue the princess... -
I have even thought of trying to get video clips of events from the original game and just show the movie clip when the event happens. such as raiding a castle. or something... but we will see i guess...
