Turn the music OFF!

[Berny]

I remember the Liberty combat music being so choppy and lackluster techo I just had to turn it off. There was even a "whoop" part in the combat music that sounds a lot like your shields coming back on line, but its not. Also various space system music is dull and not worth my time or ears.

I'm going to try to move some music files from the game and replace them with renamed Immediate Music files of the same format. Has anyone done this? Experienced any issues?

Option Nr. 1
Enter ~(FL install dir)\DATA\AUDIO directory.
Rename MUSIC to aMUSIC/what ever
Done - music is gone forever (doesn't re-activate after alt-tab occasionally)
Want music while ingame? Use Winamp/what ever.

Option Nr.2
Replace music with your music files of same names and format. Make it +- neutral ones, so that transition between neutral/dangerous/fight melodies wouldn't feel too annoying.


EDIT:
Aye, nearly forgot.

<...>\DATA\AUDIO\SOUNDS\
Rename AMBIENCES, SOLAR and BASES with something that begins different. Like aBASES etc. (will prevent sounds in badlands, asterioud fields, bases - etc - variations to musics in house space.

If prefer option 1 as it's a lot simpler and more reliable (music sound doesn't go above max after alt-tab - one of the most annoying bugs Microsoft could invent)
