Question About Menu Background Music

Post by Stardog765 »

While I am getting everything set up again I thought I would go ahead and ask this as its been something that has bothered me for a long time.

Is there any way to get rid of the background music that plays on all of the games while you are in the menu selecting scenarios or a campaign?

Its nice music just really really loud.

If not no worries but I thought I would ask.

Thank you :)

At present, no way to turn it off. But that would make for an interesting NoMusic command option. I'll add it to the to-do list.

YOU sir are the man!

Thank you. In the meantime I just copied the background guns file and renamed it. That is so much easier to deal with. I actually like that sound a lot.

Thanks again

A quick and low tech solution to the background music is toggle on your "mute" button! [;)]

Thanks MWest,
I actually just copied and renamed one of the background gun sounds that plays during the game that I like actually.
So it plays now in place of the menu music. Actually very nice.

Thanks for the idea though

S!

I used Audacity to reduce the volume to near silent, then packed it for JSGME. All three games.

I do hope any changes will be to opt out of the music?
I like the music intro.

RR, we are not taking anything out from the game. Adding new options is the preferred way forward.
