Modding Music

Post by Emx77 »

Does anyone knows how to mode music? Can I add my playlist somewhere (.ini or .cfg file of some kind)?

I've never looked at this before because I've not felt the need to mod the music. The music is in the form of OGG files, but there may also be a music ini. file somewhere (probably in the sound folder, but I haven't looked). There are only a few music files in the sound folder (four or five), and what you would probably need to do is to merge your playlist into four or five files with a music editor, and then convert those files to OGG format, also with a music editor.

The best music editor that I've encountered is Goldwave. You can download a free trial version: it has a limited number of uses, but more than enough to do what you want to do.

Merging music files is more complicated than editing music.ini (which doesn't exist in DC:B). However, it is not that complicated not to try it. Philippe, thank you for advice.

Hi Emir Agic,

Why don't you just run music in another program while tuning down the game music... Would save you a lot of trouble....

Not sure how that would solve the significant other problem.

Only way to mod would be to replace the .ogg files in the sound directory with different soundtrack files with the same name and extension.

Best wishes,
Vic
