can I insert my own music for one era only?

I guess since I'm in my 50's by wife might be considered my nurse also.

We keep the computer in the same room as our 55" HD TV so my wife is usually parked in there. It works to my advantage because I may actually say something to her while i'm playing so it counts as together time.

Come on, it is called the FAMILY room.

Same here.

She reads, I play Civ, children are asleep, quality time!

It's the way it should be.

I already dream about playing civ after a long night of playing. I don't need my dreams to include the music. So I always play with the sound off. And also I play in a room with my wife not so far away and if you think the music is annoying when you're playing, according to my wife, it's considerably more annoying when you're not.

My wife has become a fan of Baba Yetu, as have I. the only other part of the game that interests her is the diplo screens "Why did he just clap? Can you make him do that again? Make him clap again"

well I checked, and for all the later eras it doesn't say industrialone, or whatever, it says "dvoraksnewworld", etc. So I'm guessing it just plays all the MP3's in the file for the era in sequence. I hope so, I'd hate to rename "Rhapsody in Blue" as "The Chairman Dances"

Anyway I will report back as I find out how it works. I've found a cute little midi of a Copeland piece, not sure if that will work.

well that didn't work, I guess I will have to try the renaming thing

I have a manual solution.

Create a folder full of Modern Era music that you like. When you reach the Modern Era, go to the options and select playing music from a custom folder. Make that folder the one full of Modern Era music.

It is an ugly and manual solution, but so far, it sounds like it would be simpler than hunting through the code.

that worked
