    Question EB soundtrack question

    It is 180 BC, I'm a bit tired of Ptolemaioi soundtrack and would like to hear someone else music in my current campaign.
    Is it possible to switch soundtracks in EB between cultures?
    What files besides descr_sound_music.txt need to be modified or deleted?
    Thanx in advance

    You also need to have the MP3s in question copied into your sounds/music folder. I have three different EB EDM files for when I feel like listening to a) Maplestory music, b) Queen and Guns 'n' Roses, and c) Classical Opera of the Nibelungen variety (yes, Ride of the Valkyries included)

    Or just ALT-Tab and use Foobar or Winamp.

    Offtop: my favorite music right now are "In the mood for love" http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0118694/ and "2046" http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0212712/ soundtracks (I'm soundtrack addict BTW) but they are not quite what you'd expect to listen to when playing EB =)

    On topic: it looks like descr_sound_music.txt is not the only file you need to mess with.

    To switch roman and ptolemaioi soundtracks I've replaced strings:

    culture roman

    blablabla

    culture egyptian


    with strings:

    ; culture roman
    culture egyptian

    blablabla

    ; culture egyptian
    culture roman


    and...
    I'm still listening to eastern_greek music in my ptolemaioi campaign, nothing changed

    help me

    If you switch the names around of the Eastern music[in the actual music folder with the mp3s] with the faction you want, does that work?
