[MOD] Familiar Music Replacement (Alpha/Pilot/WIP etc.)
Lazylink to Nexus page for download
This mod was created with the tools created by and with help from user @Yog-Sothoth88. This mod would not had been possible without him, he really deserves all the credit.
What does the mod do?
It replaces music in the game with tunes from Witcher 1 and Witcher 2. So far only three songs have been added/replaced, more to come of course!
Future Plans
To replace combat and night time music with TW1/TW2 themes as well
Knows Issues
Since much of the music in the Witcher 3 is layered, meaning some of the tunes is split into multiple music files that are playing at the same time, simply replacing the main sound creates some oddities. I either need to locate the other minor sounds that are playing and silence them or simply find a better more suitable song to replace that isn't as layered.
Open for suggestions!
If you feel a certain song should be added, please do not hesitate to say so and also what original song should be replaced by it. If you are not happy with the current replacements and think the current songs added by this mod are better suited elsewhere in the game, please let me know as well and I will consider your suggestion. If you know the ID of the .wem file you want replaced, even better! (Listening trough them all to find the precise tune you are looking for is really the biggest headache, even though the "soundbanksinfo.xml" gives some hints.)
I hope you will like it, just keep in mind it's a bit rough in it's current state. Just wanted to upload it now as I will be very busy the coming week.
