GlobalExplorer Posted April 28, 2006 Share Posted April 28, 2006 One thing I didn't like about SC2 initially is that except the intro there is no music. I know this can be done by myself, so I got to work. What I've done so far is rip the soundtrack of Panzer General 2 into wav format. For me this still stand out by far as the best music for any WWII game I have ever played, and of course fits the mood of SC2 perfectly. Now my question is, what is the best way to use wav/mp3 files as background music in SC2? I can multitask and play in the background, but with this I had bad experiences with other games. It works fine however, and SC2 still plays its own sound files correctly. I would however, prefer if sound playback could be initiated / configured from inside SC2. I have thought about replacing the capital*xy.wavs, so the music would play whenever I click one of the capitals. Question: Has anybody found other / better ways for this? Question: Does anybody know a playe where I can download the national anthems of major countries? i like the way its done know, but the samples are too short! Haven't looked into scripting / editor, so: Can I trigger additional sound files from clicking capital cities? P.S If someone is interested in ripping the PG 2 music, it can be done with Goldwave, and its well worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris G Posted April 28, 2006 Share Posted April 28, 2006 I fully agree with you GlobalExplorer. Music from Panzer General is a great idea! Also all the capital cities should have their own national music. Can you mail me the PG music file? chris.g@tjohoo.se Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GlobalExplorer Posted April 28, 2006 Author Share Posted April 28, 2006 It fits the game perfectly and it brings back the fond memories of PG Do you have a Panzer General 2 CD? If yes, it's quite easy to extract the music with goldwave, which is freeware. Here you find the explanation how to do it: link Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fartknock3r Posted April 28, 2006 Share Posted April 28, 2006 I just turn the SC2 music off and play regular music. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
