Would it be possible to use the theme from the tv show Rome in the game?

It's "possible" i'm sure, but I doubt the EB team would want to. Especially considering they had custom music made just for EB.

It is possible. You have to get it, put it in a certain format (mp3?), name it a certain name, and put it in a certain folder. I'm not entirely sure how...

But EB won't use that music or any other music from TV, since there are copyright issues.

Yes, you need to get an MP3 file of the track and paste it in [R:TW folder]\EB\Data\Sounds\music\. Then you need to add the file name to the correct entry in EB\Data\descr_sounds_music.txt.

yes, personally i play my version with several songs form the ROME soundtrack CD. "Ceasar's Theme" is a paticularly good one. Just convert them to MP 3.

Don't forget "Janus Breaks" and of course "Niobe's Theme". Those are perfect for stratmap songs. ROME even works well for the Gallic factions as they weren't that different from the Romans musically(at least from what has survived anyway.:book: )

Where can i find the Rome tracks? I'd love to add them into my game, i never really liked the EB music.

No offense.

The EB music rocks, in my humble opinion. I found the theme to Rome to be rather... flat, just like the rest of the series.

Funny as it sounds, music from Gladiator, Troy and other movies similar to it would rock in the game, especially in the battle scenes, very climactic.

There are numerous ways to find illegal stuff on the net, none of which you will be told here.

Yeah, i have the song Triumph on the campaign because its good and also +-8 minutes long. The ROme theme song i have on the start menu and i forgot what which one is on the battle map but its good.....it all adds to the atmosphere. Next when i play the Greek factions i`ll add music from Troy and 300!
