CD Music

[Baron Munchausen]

Does anyone READ all those text files? You can completely customize the way it uses the CD music in the SETTINGS.TXT file. viz:

Num Intro Songs := 1
Intro Song 1 Track := 9
Num Background Songs := 8
Background Song 1 Track := 2
Background Song 2 Track := 3
Background Song 3 Track := 10
Background Song 4 Track := 11
Background Song 5 Track := 12
Background Song 6 Track := 13
Background Song 7 Track := 14
Background Song 8 Track := 16
Num Combat Songs := 6
Combat Song 1 Track := 4
Combat Song 2 Track := 5
Combat Song 3 Track := 6
Combat Song 4 Track := 7
Combat Song 5 Track := 8
Combat Song 6 Track := 15

I never tried it myself, but someone posted once that if you put a differnt music CD in your drive while playing the game, it would play those songs instead. Sounds kind of cool. Someone mentioned using a soundtrack from a scifi movie or something ike that to add a different feel to the game.

Yes, I READ through the Settings.txt file. I saw that you could customize the tracks played, but I still can't figure out why the game doesn't play the background music. There's an allow CD music parameter, but it doesn't seem to do anything. I set it to true, and then to yes, and it still doesn't want to play the music.

I wasn't replying to your first post, Fyron, but to the other questions in the thread.

Oh, ok. Never mind then.

I still need to find out how to play the CD music in the game, though.

Are you sure the first track is Track 2? I just looked at the CD and it starts on Track 1.

He said Track 2 is the first music track. I suspect Track 1 is game data; I remember another game that had a warning in the tech manual not to try to play Track 1 as audio, but I can't recall what game it was.

I just checked it out and played Track 1, and it was music. Well, it was an audio track, anyways. Wether or not it was "music" is debatable.
