IntroductionAudio

Introduction Audio, anyone tried to add this yet?

The Civilization table has an <IntroductionAudio> column, so I tried to add in sound for that opening (just as I did in Civ V with the DOM audio, which worked perfectly), but no luck.

I see that JFD has some leader music in the Holy SEE, but I'm wondering if IntroductionAudio just isn't set up properly, since no base game civ uses it....

Possibly the file format? (doubt it) or it isn't being called properly.
Not sure if you have to import it into VFS or not.

This is the mod data relating to the IntroductionAudio, I am trying to insert into the mod....

Spoiler :

This is what I'm worried about, as it looks like Firaxis does not have these particular sound xmls coded at all....

As far as I can tell, it's not possible to use custom audio at all yet. I couldn't get the unique leader music to work for my Holy See sponsor. This likens us to the original state of Civ V - which is not surprising, if 2D leaderscenes can't be properly supported either.

Are you talking about music in general for the game? Or: DOM, Leader Intro or music in general. I believe I've seen how to make the Leader Intro and music work, just think I might have the jimmy the DOM.

Man, that's what I was thinking....terrible news.....I was hoping that I was just making a dumb mistake or something

kingchris. Have you tried removing the <GameData> ?
I'm going to take a crack at it as well, but it doesn't look good : /

So I'm just thinking out loud here, but would it not require 5 Dawn of Man files to play each of the possible intros?

<IntroductionQuote>TXT_KEY_CIV_INTRO_civilizationhere_TEXT%</IntroductionQuote>

Even though:

<IntroductionAudio>AS2D_DOM_SPEECH_leaderhere</IntroductionAudio>

Where as in civ 5 it was labled:

<DawnOfManAudio></DawnOfManAudio>

What's even worse is the game won't even play the normal or set DOM audio for anyone (or at least the ARC).

It's got me thinking that the two files they have for DawnOfMan were simply not finished.
The INTRO audio for Kozlov is the greeting it gives when it lands and couldn't be the DOM audio.

I'm not sure what's going on with Firaxis, but it looks like they are missing some key pieces to a game they just released.

Is it possible to modify or add .oog files? Like for instance the Main Menu music?
