[REL] Kakemann and ATR-42's Silent Hunter 4 Music FIX

[kakemann]

Hi everybody.

Here is my Silent Hunter 4 music fix!

Tested and working on newest Silent Hunter 1.4 version and 1.5 (Add-on)

Kakemann and ATR-42's Silent Hunter 4 Music FIX
__________________________________________________

About the mod:
--------------
This mod was made because I found a lot of strange things regarding the music configuration and the music provided in the original game. I found that some of the music found in the music directory is actually never played in the game. Therefore I decided to add some of the missing files to the in-game playlist (configurationfile). However I kept all the fantastic tracks already in the original unmodded Silent Hunter 4 game.

I have tested the different tracks a lot, and I think that some of the tracks didn't sound so good in the game. So I added the songs I liked to the playlist and didn't add the tracks I didn't like. I also got some great information from ATR-42 here at the forum about fade time between tracks. I therefore added his fade settings as well.

If you would like to see which files I didn't add to the playlist, you can open the DATA/SOUND/MUSIC/music.cfg file and scroll down to the bottom.
Underneath "[LEFTOVER TRACKS]" you will see the files not added.

If you like these songs and add them all you have to do is to move them to the desired state. For more information go to this thread: http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/show...240#post535240

This MOD is tested on a clean Silent Hunter 4 game patched to 1.2 and 1.5 version. Works great!

Great

[kakemann]

Thanks!

This should be installed by all of those who like the stock game music, but would like some more tracks especially when spotted/detected by enemy AI.

I think the stock music rocks! Nice to hear the missing tracks!

[ATR-42]

I edited some crimson tide music to fit with the game 'moods' you'll have to add them into the music.cfg file manually but thats easy, here are the files, they are two added tracks each (6) for Battle, Normal and Tension. The volumes have been normalized as well.



>>>EDIT<<<
for now im pulling the link, i dont think these files are ready for release, the need tweeking, to be normalized and volume adjusted. once i get these just right i will repost the link... the ones i linked to i feel are just a tad too soft...
