Which sound file plays when talking to another Empire?

Post by rjord2021 »

I am looking at changing the music which plays when you are talking to another race. Have not been able to find the specific file to change. I have changed the music for the mod but when talking to another race it sounds like a vanilla music file being played.

Instead of music I want another sound to play.

Does anyone know the location of said music?

Thanks

Hello Roy;

To do what you stated, there are four distinct files that apply when talking to another race;:
diplomacyMoodAngry, diplomacyMoodHappy, diplomacyMoodMenacing, and diplomacyMoodNeutral.

In the Sounds/Effects directory, you can put a directory for the races you want to have different/non-vanilla
music for during diplomacy with that race. So for example,
Customization/YourMODName/Sounds/Effects/Wookie/diplomacyMoodAngry diplomacyMoodHappy, diplomacyMoodMenacing, and diplomacyMoodNeutral. So for the music you want to play for those four events you just create/provide the
mp3 music file and rename it accordingly. Hope this helps!
