Music question

Is there a mod or script etc. that allows non-combat music to be constantly playing?

I'm sorry - I did a full search of all forums that I know of. There seems there might be a way to do this if you edit the music list to reference only the non-combat portions, but I have not found reference to anyone who has done such a mod. I also am not sure how you could get it to run constantly.

As a musicain, I would recommend against doing this anyways, I'm afraid... unless you enjoy Phillip Glass/Minimalist repetitive music, the psychological effect of an entire SoA-ToB game with the same music playing constantly probably cannot be researched without breaking either the Geneva Convention or Amnesty International's rules of humane treatment

Most of the posts are centered on how to get the engine to play mod-added sounds and snippets.

Im kinda used to the BG1 style of having music played a bit more often

You could go to Music directory and edit Mus files at your leisure. Clipping them so they only play one melody is easy enough, and requires nothing but a Notepad - there should be a tutorial at G3 somewhere.

That would definitely allow the same music to play any time there was a cue to play music!
