Radio mod on nexus allows you to create a list of internet radio stations, mp3s in folders for each faction, etc.

Just do a search for it. It’s easy to find.

For this you will need to find all the music soundtrack entries in sound_library.xml and repalce them with your music, for example:

Code: Select all

  <replace sel="/soundlibrary/sound[@id='music_soundtrack_argon']">
    <sound id="music_soundtrack_argon" description="argon music" repeat="-1" is3d="0" preload="0">
      <sample selection="random">
        <select start="extensions\your_mod\music\your_music1" />
        <select start="extensions\your_mod\music\your_music2" />
      </sample>
      <volume start="0.6" />
      <effects>
        <fade in="1.66667" out="0.666667" />
      </effects>
    </sound>
  </replace>
This replaces music entry for music_soundtrack_argon, there are other entries for different soundtracks.

I have simply taken the Legacy Music Extended mod from Nexus, and slammed in all EVE Online ambient background tracks I could find. Had to convert the mp3's to ogg's (done with VLC) and then add the tracks into the already existing XML file. Works great. And sounds great.
