kipperthefrog Posted September 12, 2004 Posted September 12, 2004 Tired if the same old music in Morrowind? Look what I discovered! In Windows Explorer, look under folder Program files/Bethseds softworks/Morrowind/Data Files/Music there are 3 folders called "Explore", "battle" and "speacial"! I discovered if you put mp3s in those folders they will play in the game like it was the real music! you can add to those music files or replace them! I put the track " Into the trap" from the ROTJ sountrack in the battle folder and moved all the original files to another folder! now when i get into a fight in morrowind, "star wars music starts playing! one thing though, i NEVER removed "mowwoind title.mp3" from the explore folder, so I dont know what would happen. the tings i did so far worked flawlessly! try it and what do you think?
DarthBuzzard Posted September 12, 2004 Posted September 12, 2004 *starts sticking all of his AC/DC into the battle folder * I think I'm gonna have to try this, cool discovery kipper! :EDIT: Does this work with KotOR?...Cuz I just noticed it's morrowind, and I don't have Morrowind...

It might! there is a SMALL chance. Ill check it out and update you on what ever I find! in the mean time, if anyone out there has morrowind, try it out! I know THAT works!
RedHawke Posted September 12, 2004 Posted September 12, 2004 ^^^^ Interesting info Kipper, I'll have to remember that when I actually install and play Morrowind, I have it, I just haven't played yet.
Jedi_Revan Posted September 13, 2004 Posted September 13, 2004 Morrowind was a hurting game. I don't recommend it to anyone.

Jedi_Revan Posted September 13, 2004 Posted September 13, 2004 No, I like good gameplay and storyline. This is worst then everquest and it isn't even online. The graphics were bad as well as the basic concept for a game. I've played Flash games better than this one.

Com Raven Posted September 13, 2004 Posted September 13, 2004 Whoa guys, you should really look at those first new screens of Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion. Killer graphics...
kipperthefrog Posted September 13, 2004 Author Posted September 13, 2004 The Elder Scrools 4! WHOOPEEEEEEEE! Ill have to cheak that out! by the way, at DarthBuzzard's request, i did tried expirements on KOTOR. i coulnt expirement with my KOTOR because My copy of the game is not working even with a freshly reformatted hardrive! maybie the cd is scratched or somthing! I DID find out that there is a "streammusic" folder in the KOTOR directory. i DID find that the wav files will play in winamp if you rename them into mp3 files! !!!IN THEORY!!!, if you rename your mp3 files to wav files and give them the SAME name as the music files you want to replace, and finaly put them into the "streammusic" folder, MAYBIE the costom music will work in KOTOR. WARNING: Im NOT sure this will work, if ANYONE wants to try it, PLEASE backup any files you modify or replace! and also if YOU feel it is too dangerus, PLEASE don't do it! with PCs you never know WHAT will happen, Id hate to see somthing I put out kill someone's computer! maybie the worst that will happen is that the game won't work and it CAN be fixed! maybie it actualy WILL work! who knows? This is just for KOTOR! I would have done this MYSELF if my copy of KOTOR was working! IF anyone tries this, good luck! PS: I KNOW the MORROWIND one works!
kipperthefrog Posted September 13, 2004 Author Posted September 13, 2004 Com Raven. Can you post a link to those screenshots of elderscolls IV Oblivion? I can't find any pics! Thank you!
DarthBuzzard Posted September 13, 2004 Posted September 13, 2004 well, GSccc's ROTS mod has new soundfiles, so I'm sure it will work. Alright, once I'm done with homework I'll start converting all my music from .wma to .mp3 and trying it out. By the way, if I wanted ACDC/Have a Drink on ME (Back in Black, 1980) to be the cantina music (have a drink on me in the cantina...ain't that a riot? ) I would need to convert it from .wma to .mp3, then RENAME IT to cantina.mp3, and then place it in the stream music directory, correct? Thanks for the info already Kipper, great finds
kipperthefrog Posted September 13, 2004 Author Posted September 13, 2004 your welcome, buzzard. I never heard of wma files or GSccc's ROTS mod , so yu seem to know more than I do! let me know if your sucessful! Thanks!
DarthBuzzard Posted September 13, 2004 Posted September 13, 2004 Will do Kipper! I've just d/l a think that will convert my files, so doing some exploring, will keep you updated. :EDIT: still have math homework...be bak on this in a while! :.DOUBLEEDIT: Alright, it works! Now whenever I enter the cantina, AC/DC have a drink on me starts! What i did was: 1. Use Advanced WMA workshop to convert a WMA to a Mp3. 2. Replaced mus_area_can1 with the Mp3 file. 3. Warped (with Darth333's warpband none-the-less ) to the Tatooine Cantina. 4. Listened to my music. So that's how to do it. Guess I'm gonna start my Rock Revival mod now...
kipperthefrog Posted September 13, 2004 Author Posted September 13, 2004 Ive noticed no one posted any coments on my little discovery on MORROWIND!! talk of changing the music in KOTOR got this thread a little sidetracked! if anyone else tried to put their mp3s in the Morrowind music folders, please comment!
Kain Posted September 13, 2004 Posted September 13, 2004 There was a mod at Morrowind Summit that placed a CD player in the game and 5 CD's throughout the world. You could put whatever tracks you wanted on the CD's. Couldn't tell you what it was called though.
Com Raven Posted September 14, 2004 Posted September 14, 2004 Damn, looks like Bethesda had all the big sites pull their pics. I guess they want it to stay exclusive with the magazine a while longer...
