Can you add a music text file to the epic game folder. Has anyone done this.

Most of the Firaxis scenarios have a music text file that points to music in different folders. There doesn't look like there is a limit to the number of mp3's that you can point to.

The only thing is that I can see, is that it is intended for single Era scenarios as there seems to be no way that you can specify which music goes into which Era.

If you don't mind which music is in which Era you might be able to get a large selection of music.

The other question would be: If you added a music.txt file to the epic game folder, would it override the default setup or would the default setup override the music.txt file.

Does anbody use this music.txt file in their mods or do you just substitute/rename your new music with the named files that are in the sound folders.

I've looked at the music files before but have not had the guts to try messing with them yet, though I've fantasized...

I have tried them in my new mod and it seems to override the existing music - but I haven't thoroughly tested it out yet.
