  • Civ Music

    Heres a question. I'm deep into a game of CivIII, and I have noticed that the music has changed with the eras. But it plays the same thing over and over again. In the conquests, the music changes periodicly. And it sounds good. I have never heard any of this music in the main game. Is there a way to get more variety out of the music provided? Like you could with Civ II. Honestly, the reptative nature of the main muisc has caused me to nod off during the game. Any ideas or mods that can unlock some of this other music in the game?

        I don't know if anyone ever found out exactly how to control the music. We tried to have custom music for a scen at CFC a year ago or so, but never got anywhere.

        Anyway, never have the game music on, but prefer to have WinAmp running in the background.

          Who could take that music for the whole game??? I mean the music is cool, but after a certain amount...well, I can't listen to it anymore.

          My "civ music" has been Velvet Revolver recently.
          Haven't been here for ages....

              Njah, the musics are your basic MP3's, wouldn't have been too difficult for Firaxis to add some sort of playlist... To add your own MP3's. To different folders for war and peace, etc...

                What the heck is "Winamp"???

                death eternal to those who
                stand against righteousness."

                  It's a great program for playing MP3's.

                  Go to Winamp.com

                  Highy configurable. Does take up memory though. Wouldn't playing it slow CivIII down? In the modern era, I don't need slower.

                  Of course I could just buy a faster computer.

                  I am still curious though. Does anybody know about the other music in the game. I know its there since it plays at other times and in conquests, just not in the main game. I'm all for playing my oun music, but I do want to know about the stuff that came with it. I am getting the impression that I havn't heard half of it.

                    I always turn the music and sound off to save on resources.

                      I have Civ III Complete but I hope this helps.

                      Sounds for the main game:
                      C:\Program Files\Atari\Civilization III Complete\Sounds

                      PTW:
                      C:\Program Files\Atari\Civilization III Complete\civ3PTW\Sounds

                      Conquests:
                      C:\Program Files\Atari\Civilization III Complete\Conquests\sounds

                      Poke around the files below the sound folder and you might find what you're after.
