FOnline Old-Fashion Music Mod

(1/3) > >>

Varrok:
Description:
I've made this modification because I think classic music fits well to Fallout universe (and so FOnline) - the mod replaces town and world map music to real songs converted to fallout music extension (acm) - laboratory and desert music remains untouched, there is no need for them here.

Download link (If you enjoyed my mod, it would be nice you to reupload to other mirror):
1.0 - http://www.sendspace.com/file/jvw9rl

Installation:
Extract the archive to your Fonline\data\sound\music folder (Please backup original F2 music before!)

WARNING: New music may be louder than original F2 music so I prefer you to reduce the volume before playing

Any suggestions/thoughts/opinions/bug reports are welcome  ;) I hope you'll like it.

Graf:
As for me, it looks very much in Fallout3-style, not in F1-F2 (or Fonline). In addittion to this, that music is... funny, and wasteland are not. And the last thing I mentioned, is that, if you want to put correct background music, it shold not consist any words, only a music, because when you enter different locations at the same city, it starts playing from the beginning again, and again and again. Which is annoying.
Despite all the shit above, I kinda like it. But wont be using it, sorry :)

Surf:
I appreciate your work and afford, but I don't really like it. As said above, it smells to much like Fallout 3, where you can hear such kind of music everywhere. It's just overused. When hearing such tunes at the intro, more as an atmospheric moment it's fine. But not over the whole game. The music that was original in there (Mark Morgan's Work) is there for a reason. ;)

gordulan:
or, you could just leave it here, it's all up to people's preferences actually, personally i just have my music player running in the background when FOnlining, sometimes even spotify.

Well... it seems that you think the 30' and 40' was funny years - well, no - it was as good as our times (bad and brutal) - but all old music was optimistic, thats essential to them - and I think e.g. "Dear Hearts and Gentle People" song playing in New Reno has a lot of sarcasm.
Its also hard to find instrumental music for game...
I can't make more songs playing in 1 city... only if devs allow to do it.


PS: I hate F3
PS2: I've never thought that F2 music was bad - I just wanted to make FOnline more unique from it
PS3: I put music only in places where (usually) nobody got killed - cities, worldmap - i didn't put it in REs, deserts, because it doesn't fit to i
