Where is the Opening Screen Music controlled?

[phungus420]

simple question, but can't find an answer using the forum search.

Where is the opening screen music controlled? I'm assuming it's some python file. Or alternatevly, since it's for a modpack, I could just name the opening music whatever the default name is, but I need to know what it's called and what path it's in. A few mods do this already (replace the opening music), but I don't know where or how.

Well checked out FFH2 and found it. The path is:
Assets/Sounds/Soundtrack/OpeningMenu.mp3

So I no longer need to know they python file that controls it. Of course if someone knows and wants to say where and what it is in the python, that's cool too, might help someone else, but at least for me, this is all I need to know.

Always good to know.

You can put the audio file you want to use in My Games\Beyond the Sword\CustomAssets\sounds\soundtrack if you always want to use it when Civ 4 loads.

Take a copy of the AudioDefines.xml from your game folder and drop it in My Games\Beyond the Sword\CustomAssests\xml\audio - if you open it up with a simple text editor then the third entry down (SONG_OPENING_MENU) should be the one you want. Just change the filename to match whichever file you used above.

Obviously if you change the starting screen in options (you can do that in BTS) the music track specified in the next two entries would be used instead.
