Hey, if some of you wouldn't mind letting me know which areas have yet to be done IG, preferably on the surface first, then I can do the underdark. This was extremely time consuming the first time around exploring each area, then try each and every song in the toolset to figure out which matched(hardest part doing it over and over :roll: ), and then finding the proper file name.

Perhaps this time I can just get the areas and look up the exact song, or just get luna to look them up for me if he's up to it. I bet you that would knock this down to at least a 1/20th of the time it took me to do this the first time. :)

So if anyone wouldn't mind just posting a few areas, perhaps I can get another update going here!

I'm pretty sure this no longer works as MegaUpload is down.

Just to clarify as I think the initial page of instructions is out of date - you simply need to extract the music folders into the Overide folder?

Just like to thank you for doing this - it's a really nice addition.

To anyone who wants some BG/Icewind Dale music, I have a playlist I've been listening to on and off for a while here;

This music pack doesn't seem to work anymore.
Do I need to do something other than the 3 steps mentioned on the front page?

I thought this music pack were incredible so I really hope it still works and I'm just being an idiot for not doing it right ;)

I think it's toast now. There has been so many changes over the years to different areas from many different devs, that it probably wont override the proper songs anymore as they've all for the most part been changed.

A shame too as this took a long time for me to put together as I didn't have access to all the areas at the time and had to guess the name of the songs for each area through trial and error. I still have all the original bmu music files if anyone want's to take this on. I think you'd have easier access to the area song names now as luna is a little more lax with that these days. *tries to hear for any volunteers through all the cricket churping* :P

What do you mean, little more lax? The song names now appear without having to get the special area pack thingy from Luna now?

This may have been asked and I missed it, or this ma not be the place for it... but the music in the area with the Hill Giants near Nashkel...

Anyone else think that sounds like something from Final Fantasy?
