Combat music on gameplay!

[Annhilator2142]

I just got a great idea, for those of you who have played Battlefield2: MC for XBox 360, dont you know how they have combat music and stuff like that :D , i just thought, why not do that for BF2142, does anyone know where to put the sound file?

Any ideas anyone?

BF2142 gameply music:

Put one of the musics i gave u in
C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\Battlefield 2142\mods\bf2142\sound_client

Ill be back in 30 min, i know how to make there be music when someone takes a flag or something.....

Any modification to the files will likely get you kicked by PB.

You can easily play music in the background with your music player of choice (I prefer WinAmp). It won't cue in to when there is heavy combat, but you would have music to listen to.

I almost always play with winamp open

[Annhilator2142]

pb will kick me? I will find a way to bypass that, and the cool thing about modding it is that you can make it play music when there is an artillery strike. Ill figure out how......

I just play music in TS when i want to play and listen.

[Annhilator2142]

But, just watch i will make a really cool mod...

I think i would find music really distracting. I need to be able to hear footsteps.

It only works for me at some times, sometimes it's very distracting, but there is nothing quite like raping hords of voss wielding troopers with a walker while listening to "let the bodies hit the floor" or something like that. :)

[Annhilator2142]

Youve got it all wrong, When you hear footsteps or a bomb or something it will make a specific sound of notice or music of warning. Im not talking about combat music not regitone, lol. Look man, this will work out fine, but i cant bypass the pb, nor do i want to, so can anyone think of something else?

Well I encourage you to make a mod and play in a server running your mod as PB won't kick you for that. PB will kick you if you modify your files and sound files and then try to play in ranked servers.

[Annhilator2142]

Ill see where i can take this mod... If anyone wants to help, feel free to, u can help me find sounds and music and stuff :D, but i think it would really help me to play this mod in Ranked because it will motivate me. Who will be so kind and send this to Dice :yay: :yay:

Posting fourm on modding fourm, tell me there if you want to join.....

Hey, whats the difference between the sound_server and the sound_client?

[The_Eliminator]

haha send a mod to Dice, get it ranked :laugh:

Oh your werent joking....

[Annhilator2142]

I wasnt joking.... To get this modification to pass on rank, i need numbers, and it is not like mod like sandbox but it is a mod for motivation. I need more people to send this to Dice and that way everyone can use the mod im and mabye some others are about to make.

[PhilCliff]

Exclusive mp3 player? :P

I know you're young and naive and I don't want to be hard on you, but you have very little chance of getting your mod ranked. If you want to make one for your own enjoyment to hear things how you want and to learn how to mod then go for it, but don't do it on the hope that it will become ranked because you will almost certainly end up wasting your time.

[Annhilator2142]

I really dont see why they wont make it ranked. I mean it is just for motivation, its not cheating or anything. Dice can check the mod i made and they will put it in ranked. Thiell see i only made a few changes in sounds and how they react, i would really like this mod because BF2: MC had something simular to this.

Still dont see why it cant be ranked:confused:

Oh it could definitely be ranked, but it won't be ranked unless you're the luckiest mod maker in the history of BF2/2142. It would be awesome if they would check and approve mods for ranked play but it just hasn't happened and I personally think it's highly unlikely to happen in the future.

If you want it and think some more BF2: MC people would like to play it unranked then go for it and you could try to get it ranked. All I'm saying is if having it ranked is the only way you'll do it then don't bother because the odds are low that it will be ranked.

Let me get this correct you want music to play for game actions

So if someone is sneaking up on you to knife you instead of quiet footsteps like everyone hears you want something like i dunno Amon Amarth's song "For the stabwounds in our backs" to play so you have a nice heavy warning?

[Annhilator2142]

Has dice ever checked mods? The only reason dice never approved mods to work in ranked is because those mods were just to have fun. But i think that my mod shud work out for dice, i dont see why :confused: :confused: , now the chances will be high if DICE gets alot of complaints for this, but probably not that many people will volunteer so thats why the odds are low i guess....

[Durutti]

Sorry man, they won't make it ranked. I don't know what else to tell you.

Go check out the radio in Battlefield vietnam if you need any inspiration for how to get drop in music to Battlefield. :)
