Ok, so my first post and I'm new to modding for Empire! I don't want to muck around with my game too much by having a go myself, so I decided to be safe and ask.

Correct procedure for installing these mods?

[ramses12]

A question:

it is possible to make a macro or bind function-keys to load the faction marches?

for example bind the key F2 for prussian marches, F3 for poland marches and so one

This would be cool! and would help until CA release a mod kit

[Davius]

Does this mod work with the new patch?

[Rsty Bloodnok]

Yes, it should be. Try it!

[The Kurgan]

any idea how I can upload an audio file as example bagpipe music?tried Mp3 but invalid file?!!

[1in1class]

So you cant use them all for there own factor? Like if you dl one it plays on all sides instead of french useing there own if i dl sweeden one the french will use it too? Ok i guess the readme says it all thank ya.

Hey Hollowfaith,

Mate first of all count me as your fan. I really love your great work.

Dear Hollow. I made a small Ottoman Music pack which is including four tracks compilation. Meesa edited all and theyre ready to be used. All tracks are chosen from Turkish Army Mehter band performance. Sound quality and performance is real great.

If your are interested then i'll load the pack and you host it. I really want to make a small contribution your mod.

Cheers,

[Lothae]

I keep getting a "source file could not be read" error when I try to download these .
But I manage to download other mods (both in patch & pack form) just fine.
Anyone have an idea what's wrong?

[Erunion Telcontar]

Caligula, how's the bagpipe tune coming? Once you upload one, I'll look into releasing a British Music Pack (with your permission, of course.)

[Rsty Bloodnok]

Hollowfaith. I have been mulling this over and I think I know a way to make the sounds all faction specific!!

The modification will have to be unit based rather than purely sound based.
I came across the idea and the means when I was making the Regimental Band.

I may Need some help because it will require new lines of csr. data. and it does not seem to respond to changes.

Catch You Soon.

Rusty.

Wonderful mod! Really adds atmosphere to the game. Just wondering if you find the time, could you maybe make one with one of the tunes from the patriot: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nKW-Gm9bvpU @ 7:01 - 7:51 for the US.

Yeah maybe the tune the British march to in the battle of Guilford Courthouse

Well I have some internet access at a cafe this afternoon before we head back out on the road. Just wanted to make a few replies...

@Lothae - I have no clue as to what could be wrong. I just checked my downloads for you and they all still work. Could be that megaupload is giving you problems.

@BritPatriot1815 - Excellent links mate!

@Rsty Bloodnok - Awesome! I hope you can figure it out! I'll check your mod out when I get home in about a week or so.

@Erunion Telcontar - It was coming along before I left, though when I return from this mini tour with my brothers band I'll finish the redo of the March of Narva, and start on the Russian theme. I might release the bagpipes sometime soon!

@TwoScoopsOfViking - What? I just checked the files and they are in zip/rar format and are able to be downloaded. Megaupload is telling you AVI? Wierd!

@The Kurgan - LOL

Okies I'll be on here till about 2pm US EST. Then I have to get going. Thanks everyone!

[BritPatriot1815]

@BritPatriot1815 - Excellent links mate!

No probs mate

[TwoScoopsOfViking]

Whacky a** iraqi internet...


After a week of trying I finally got the music to download. Great stuff, now I have something to terrorize those Austrians pansies with as my Prussian grenadiers march ever closer thanks Caligula!

[Hellfromthepast]

When will we have a update, these should really be put in a mod pack, not patch, so as to be used by the mod manager. Also if I download all of these, I can only get one to play...for instance, I download them all, and only British Grenadiers plays. Anyone else noticing this?

[Emilio Aguinaldo]

Hi, I have a youtube account the same as you Hollowfaith... I forgot your account name? I just wanna send you some videos that may help you make your mod.
