Creaghorn 10 Posted January 19, 2010 here are some alternative stuff from my homebrew. it's posted in mp3 to make it smaller. if you want to use it you have to convert it back to wav and then drop it into C:\Programme\CFSWW1 Over Flanders Fields\campaigns\CampaignData\ShellMusic of course please first backup the custom music. This score is cut together by myself of a Red Baron Soundtrack score. personally i like it very much. Matt Milne's great scores are still there. Since some of his scores are used twice or more in BHAH you will experience it as an addition, not as a replacement. Adagio for strings appears also more than once in BHAH, so this score is also no replacement but and addition. it will appear only when dead/hospitalized/captured. everybody who has seen this WW1 movie knows this song well and it fits perfectly this one is unfortunately only usable for german campaigns. it replaces the school restaurant thingy with a german CO who explains what to do in the mission in a very typical prussian and realistic style. this one appears when beeing in the briefing room that one replaces the "contact clear" thingy for GERMAN campaigns with a partial medley of matt milne's score (hope you're not offended) for the first 25 seconds (average loading time) and then turns into a very realistic startup sequence (usually about the time when theater appears) where your captain explains you something while you're sitting in your crate and you can hear other pilots shouting "anwerfen" and roaring engines etc. lasts all in all 1 minute, about the time when you get airborne. very immersive IMO.

Creaghorn 10 Posted January 19, 2010 similar startup sequence with the CO giving advices while engines are roaring and other pilots are shouting "contact" etc. this version is for ALLIED campaigns. i did not replace any of the custom scores in the menu etc. the music appears as an addition, so i hope it's ok for mr. milne and the devs Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Winston DoRight 3 Posted January 19, 2010 Absoloutely marvelous work! I'd like to urge the dev team to incorporate these into the next patch. Perhaps alternate the menu music with the existing theme by Milne? And if possible if the code permits, auto switch/detect the german and english files as appropriate for whichever side your flying.

MikeDixonUK 5 Posted January 20, 2010 That menu music is great, very sad and depressing sounding. And I do love that song from Aces High, I've even been trying to learn the tune to it and play it on my crappy little electric keyboard. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vschoell 0 Posted January 20, 2010 Hi Creaghorn, great job. I like the menue music very much. Same as your news... they are great and so much work. "Dankeschön" for that. vschoell Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Creaghorn 10 Posted January 20, 2010 Hi Creaghorn, great job. I like the menue music very much. Same as your news... they are great and so much work. "Dankeschön" for that. vschoell thank you vschoell. please also try out the other music addons in the first and second post. at least for me it adds much of "beeinginthere". especially the briefingroom thing and startupsequence. everytime i start a sortie and this startupsequence begins where you hear the other pilots and engines, i'm almost a bit nervous. it's almost like your mates are alive.

itifonhom 6 Posted January 20, 2010 Hey Creaghorn, many many thanks for these wonderful alternative shell sounds, they are really fantastic! I got a little question regarding the mp3 to wav conversion, how should be done? I mean, do I need a special programm or something? Thanks in advance, Anastasios.

I got a little question regarding the mp3 to wav conversion, how should be done? I mean, do I need a special programm or something? Thanks in advance, Anastasios. i convert it with nero smart. there are a ton of free converters in the web. i'm not sure, but i think windows media player also can convert it. try it here http://www.computerbild.de/download/Free-Audio-Converter-4210601.html Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

itifonhom 6 Posted January 23, 2010 It did worked indeed and have to admit it feels just great. I noticed though, that while starting a Quick Mission, the loading time was shorter and I had some of the sounds while ingame, doesn't bother me though since the overall feeling is fabulous! Many thanks Creaghorn, you are a genius! Anastasios Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Many thanks Creaghorn, you are a genius! Anastasios wow, thanks. i'm just trying to add the immersion . this mod is for campaigns primarily. after loading a sortie the first time after running your rig the loading time is longer and it doesn't fit also. it's perfect for campaigns when going from the second sortie on, when loading time is about 25 seconds +/- . i have more homemade stuff, i think i'll put it into the download section in the next couple days.

Many thanks Creaghorn, you are a genius! Anastasios by the way. maybe i got you wrong, it's supposed to be ingame, itifonhom. first 25 seconds are music. usually after that you find yourself on the runway with your mates. and that's when the startupsequence is supposed to be. while you sit in your cockpit your CO is advising you and the others around you are starting their engines, mechanics yelling etc... both in GERMAN and ALLIED version.
