[TEC] SH3 music to SH4

[kakemann]

Hi!

Just wanted to share this info..

I love the music of SH4, but I also enjoy he old music of SH3.

I have both the original games so I decided to add the old SH3 music tracks to the new game so that both the new tracks and the SH3 tracks will be played according to the different states you are in the game.

Then the game will have even more great music tracks!

How to add the SH3 music to SH4:

* Open the file: DATA/SOUND/MUSIC/music.cfg

* Replace all the content with this:

* Use a sound program to reduce the volume to all the *.ogg files slightly in the SH4 music directory, forexample VCTEA Audio Editor X. (The volume level of all the SH4 music files are a lot louder than the SH3 music files.

* If you have installed the SH3 game go to the folder DATA/SOUND/MUSIC/music.cfg

* Copy all of the files EXCEPT (This is important) music.cfg.

* Enjoy both the SH3 and SH4 tracks

NOTE! You can open ogg files with Media player 11, so to test how much you should reduce the volume of a SH4 file try one file before reducing volume of all. Then you know what level is equal for the SH3 and SH4 music files!
