Title: Can we get the awesome Main Menu music for Blue Planet?
Post by: Davidge on March 15, 2015, 06:05:41 am: Can anyone please post the awesome Main Menu music for all the new Campaigns (age of aquarius etc)? Especially for the very 1st AOA campaign and War In Heaven campaigns! Awesome!

I'm tired of having to run FS2 just to listen to the music!

It's an awesome game btw!

However, it will likely be changed to something either royalty-free or a licensed track.

AoA's menu music is "Emotif" by Illusive Mind.

Post by: T-Man on March 15, 2015, 07:12:03 am: On that subject actually (if you'll forgive a brief O/T), is there a Paypal account or alike where people could donate money towards any licensing BP pays for? (Feel it's only fair I do given how I went all silly and ranty about it.)

Agree with Davidge though those are amazing tracks. I use Audacity to listen to them sometimes (AFAIK any player with that recognises OGG can play them if you have the means to open up the VP).

Post by: rance on March 15, 2015, 07:16:17 am: I think there's a program somewhere which would let you extract the audio files for Blue Planet, which you could then convert with audacity. I've done it before but I forget what the program I used was.

Post by: Phantom Hoover on March 15, 2015, 07:22:57 am: Just use a VP viewer (http://www.hard-light.net/wiki/index.php/*.VP#Editors), the music files are all stored as oggs in the music VPs.

Post by: Gee1337 on March 25, 2015, 04:34:00 pm: Wow... I didn't see that coming! Guess I'm gonna have to pull my finger out my bum to make some more single shot weapons... I've got a couple cooked up already, but I want to release a pack of about 10 or so... including that bloody beam weapon I've promise to do for Betrayal, but has gone on the back burner after I had to rebuild my main rig.

Post by: X3N0-Life-Form on March 27, 2015, 11:42:02 am: You mean the Aquitaine track? You can extract it from the .vp file with a VP viewer (http://www.hard-light.net/wiki/index.php/*.VP), it should be called Aquitaine.ogg

It was remixed by Dan Wentz himself btw (the original composer for the FS soundtracks), along with the FS1 tracks you can hear in FSPort and few others.
