WoT NFL Films music mod

Jexter's Photo Jexter 05 Feb 2012

This mod replaces the original game music with a few selected musical pieces from NFL Films. The "martial" mood of the music works surprisingly well with the game, imo.

Lobby & in-battle combat music are de-activated. Victory/defeat/draw screens each have their own single tune. Battle intros randomly play 1 of the 3 tunes of the group to which that battle is affected (there are 8 groups in total, so 24 different tunes to discover).

You can download the zipped archive here (rapidshare, somewhat broken now unless you have a premium account) or here (mediafire)

Install instructions:

1. Locate the World of Tanks audio subdirectory (ex: C:\Games\World_of_Tanks\res\audio)
2. IMPORTANT: backup/rename your original music.fsb and music.fev files
3. Extract the contents of the zipped archive into the World of Tanks audio subdirectory
4. Play the game and enjoy the new music!

5. Let me know what you think  :)

Some examples:

Disclaimer: the music contained in these files is the property of NFL Films. Use at your own discretion.

Really nice :) Perfect combination with Fresh Sounds.

@Edit
For me, present form is the best :) I had always music level set to 0, because it was disturbing during fight. And now I can listen nice music again :)

Vertius, thank you for the kind words and for including my work in your great mods list :Smile_great:
If you have any ideas how I could improve it (battle music, lobby music?), please feel free to let me know. Cheers.

I have a problem : I replaced the files, but there is still the old music. Now new one.... It's very strange, I've tried a million times.... manually and with mod installer. But nothing changes. please help :(

That's very weird. Some things that I can think of that you can check :

- are you sure you're making the changes in the right folder? do you have 2 WoT install folders maybe (regular install + test install)?
- did you rename/replace both the music.fsb and music.fev files?

for reference, the size of my files are:
music.fev = 8548 bytes (8,34 KB)
music.fsb = 82439872 bytes (78,6 MB)

Hopefully you'll manage to sort this out, feel free to convo me with specific questions.

Edit: I made my changes manually, so I couldn't guarantee that this mod is working with mod managers, since I haven't tried it. Also, maybe there is a way for the game to cache the sound files?

Works with JSGME. And the game does not cache sound files, but you do need to restart the game if it is running when the install is made.

I finally did it ! I re-downloaded the mod, then installed it using Wot mod installer. Nothing special.. I think the problem was that I was tired..:rolleyes:

Happy hunting :Smile-izmena:

Also, is there any way to activate music during battles? It´s a good selection and I would love to listen to that while under fire  ;)

Why did you choose to disable battle music? I want to hear the music during epic battles aswell as during the loading. Could you make another download with battle-music enabled?
