OK I tested it and it works fine in SP. I also doubt it would create any problems in MP (  compatibility or something) but I did not test it.

So for Dominion I added a sound which CDPelectro once showed us over here is the forums. It is a demo song he created specificaly for the Dominion in FO. Cause its a demo its only a third of the lenght of the other tracks, still it does give u a much better feel for the Dominion than other tracks would give. So if anyone else wants to have specific ingame music for the dominion here is the download link(I uploaded the file to rapidshare): &nsbp; &nsbp; http://rapidshare.de/files/23910151/Dominion.wav.html]Click[/URL]


Anyway just do what Ryan said in the previous post and add this file to FO install directory\sounds\music and it should work for you just fine  cheesy

Thanks for the info... I tried the dominion music, but somehow it's too distraction for me.

However, I just added some "war" music from DS9 instead.
Now I finally have motivating music for the Dominion. Cheesy

And it's >3 Minutes, so it's not too repetitive.

Also, I now know that the music can also be 44.1kHz instead of 22kHz and it still works.

I don't think the music will be checked for online play... or do you know of any reports concerning incompatibility between installations with and without the multimedia pack?

the reason i brought it up about compatibility is not because you are changing music content but changing the content of (a very important) odf file Wink . but hey if it works fine then all the better for everyone Smiley

i guess if everyone uses your little dominion music it will be ok after that  guess so long as everyone uses the same name in that dominion odf then it will be compatible... should be anyway.

Why not simply using batch-files?
You just have to know, what you're going to play.

Put your Federation music as fed1.wav into your music directory and your dominion music as dom1.wav.

It would look like this (working directory = fleetops directory):

Selection.bat (needs choice.com (MS-DOS command) in FO directory):

Code:
cls
@echo off
echo ------------------------------------------------
echo FleetOps Music Selection
echo ------------------------------------------------
echo 1 - FleetOps with Dominion music
echo 2 - FleetOps with Federation music
echo ------------------------------------------------
choice /c:12 /n > nul
if ERRORLEVEL 2 goto federation
if ERRORLEVEL 1 goto dominion
:dominion
if exist sounds\music\Federation.wav del sounds\music\Federation.wav
copy sounds\music\dom1.wav sounds\music\Federation.wav
goto end
:federation
if exist sounds\music\Federation.wav del sounds\music\Federation.wav
copy sounds\music\fed1.wav sounds\music\Federation.wav
:end
FleetOps.exe

For people who can't find choice.com, 2 files:

Dominion.bat:

Code:
cls
@echo off
echo ------------------------------------------------
echo FleetOps Music Selection
echo ------------------------------------------------
echo FleetOps with Dominion music
echo ------------------------------------------------
pause
if exist sounds\music\Federation.wav del sounds\music\Federation.wav
copy sounds\music\dom1.wav sounds\music\Federation.wav
FleetOps.exe

Federation.bat:

Code:
cls
@echo off
echo ------------------------------------------------
echo FleetOps Music Selection
echo ------------------------------------------------
echo FleetOps with Federation music
echo ------------------------------------------------
pause
if exist sounds\music\Federation.wav del sounds\music\Federation.wav
copy sounds\music\fed1.wav sounds\music\Federation.wav
FleetOps.exe

seems awfully complex for such a trivial matter  huh
probs easier alround to just edit the odfs as neccessary. or just once if everyone can agree on a .wav file to use.

if people want it they can send me the .wav that is wanted for the dominion music and i can put it together, with the change to the odf, inside 1 zip file to upload here (with doca & optecs permission of course), so that there is no problems about people labelling the music differently. (main thing here is to agree on what to use as the music itself).

The complex thing was to write the batch-files.

With the first one, you simply change your shortcut from FleetOps.exe to Selection.bat and you get prompted with this:

Quote
------------------------------------------------
FleetOps Music Selection
------------------------------------------------
1 - FleetOps with Dominion music
2 - FleetOps with Federation music
------------------------------------------------

Press 1 or 2 and the game starts. Wink


However, an "official" expansion with some Dominion music would really be the best thing.

You just proposed that kind of thing:

Agreeing on one peace of music and making a zip file so everone uses
the same music and odf and then putting it up here so everyone can grab it.

Thats what I call an "official" expansion.
What you mean is an official expansion. Wink Without the "". Cheesy

Wow, really? Cheesy Sorry... had to say that. Wink


But for the moment, a simple "fan" solution would be better than waiting for V3, I think.

At the moment, I'm using the Wolf 359 track from the DS9 Emissary Soundtrack...
are there any Dominion war era tracks from DS9 out there?
