Period Music Mod v1.3

[EgyptianNecrophiliac]

What are the changes in this version? New tracks for the campaign? Or did you find some fitting ones for the battles?

Seconded. List of changes would be nice.

Downloading anyway!

But-but-but... There IS a list of changes. Didn't you check the OP?

The new version has been uploaded! It's an expansion of the fields of ETW that which the mod covers.

It includes:
- Replaced campaign prebattle music to better fit the period, and thus enhance atmosphere.
- Replaced battle result music for the same reasons.

Oh, sorry. I must have missed it

I can't garantuee anything using my mod to play anything but European factions. This mod is for playing as European factions after all.

I wonder if it works for Americans...

If they're of European culture, then yes.

Just a noob question:

Is there any way to open the files, so i can get the music files for my media player?

[♔Dignan♔]

Been trying to get this to work with no luck. I'd really like to figure it out because your list of songs and composers sounds great.

1. I've put the mod file name in the user scripts file like I've done with other mods that have worked.

2. I changed the scripts document to unicode.

3. And I put the unzipped patch file in the data folder.

After all this, it still doesn't work. I still hear vanilla sound.

The only other mods I am running are the blood mod, drums&fife mod and the "no tracers" mod. As far as I understand, none of these mods would interfere with your sound mod. Any ideas on what I'm doing wrong?

The new pre-battle music is great. The music that plays when you win a battle seems maybe a tad too grandiose imo.

Yup. Use the Pack File Manager by LtChambers to extract the files.

Is version 1.3 compatible with Darthmod?

Should be because I don't believe Darth's has touched the music.

Whatever the case, just put Darth's mod after this one within the user.empire_script.txt, just make sure you have Darth's changes, and you'll know right off the bat if it works or not as the music is quite different from vanilla

It does, yeah. Until the cultures_tables can be modified in LtChamber's Pack File Manager, this must be so. It's too bad.

Although, it's not too difficult to modify the factions_tables, if you know how to use the Pack File Manager. Just open tuca_music.pack in it, select db, factions_tables, factions. Once inside, find Type, and change any faction's to "playable". Then, make sure you set Early and Late Availability to "True", those factions you want to unlock.

If you dont mind ofcourse , can you explain how to change the early and late availability to "true" ? I seem to be a bit confused ...

By default, it's set to False, right? Just change False to True, and you're done.

[occer]

Can you make a version of the mod that builds on the previous one so we don't need to download the large file at slow speed everytime?

[caeles]

Any chance you will upload this on filefront? Megaupload and sendspace are causing problems for me.

[akinkhoo]

can anyone share it on torrent? it is too big to DL. :\

[somerandomMinja]

In game or in the mod manager ? This is what I see in the mod manager , and I dont see anything like what you just said .

if i add the line in and play right then, the music mod works.

Anyone able to help? I do have my main.pack folder unpacked but the game is still reading from the main.pack file. Would that prevent this from running?

EDIT: Nevermind, figured it out. I just had to change the file type to PATCH in the PFM program. Not sure why but this worked.

[♔GrinningManiac♔]

Is there a faster way than Megaupload? Dear god, look at the size of that file!

You need to do this in the Pack File manager, not the Mod Manager.

BTW, are you using the French music mod as well? It will conflict with my mod for sure.

This is odd. You shouldn't have to do that.

Maybe you should try making your user.scripts_empire.txt file read-only?

Oh! I just noticed it's not actually shutting down. I will then.

I'm not sure how this would work without making it so everyone will add a new mod every time they download the new version of this mod.
