Anyone tried this on AE?

As mod it does not work for me
\GoG\System Shock 2 Remastered\mods\SS2_Combined_Sound_Mod.kpf\snd\songs\*.wav

but if I add the wav files into sshock2.kpf then it works perfectly
\GoG\System Shock 2 Remastered\sshock2.kpf\data\res\snd\songs\*.wav

Where is that?

I think it might be here:
D:\Games\GOG Galaxy\Games\System Shock 2\DMM
But, I'm not sure.

Don't wanna mess up anything.

It doesn't "restore" the boss fight music since it never existed in vanilla SS2. The music is an SCP enhancement.

Try extracting this into the root of the SCP mod folder.

What do you mean "apparently"? Does it or doesn't it?

It starts after the level transition from the Body of the Many. I am unsure how or when level music is loaded so that's why I wrote apparently.

And what do you mean by "white noise loop"? White noise is a steady hiss sound. Are you saying that's what you heard?

Its was about a 1/4 second of white noise, then silence, then it repeats every second or so.

The SCP SHODAN fight music is a new track, so there is no vanilla resource. Since this mod only replaces vanilla resources, it's impossible for it to have interfered with SCP's SHODAN fight music.

I'm just telling you what happened and the steps I took to solve it all in the interest of helping other who play System Shock 2. Disabling the Vintage Song Remake Mod for the final level fixed the issue for me.

interesting, because if a resource file is missing from a mod, then the default/vanilla resource should just load. will need an investigation.

Sorry for the bump, I hope this comment is constructive:

As a SHMUP user who is now considering downloading this for a new playthrough, it's a real shame to see that the comparison link has expired. I would recommend making it permanent and possibly adding it to the first post, as it's likely something people who are looking for a good music mod would want to listen to, especially those who use SHMUP and noticed something off but didn't quite recognise any major problems or differences from the original in their last playthrough. It's this mods equivalent of a demo video, and I think it's important to keep around.

I'm having a hell of a time trying to download this. I've made 3 attempts now, and every download ends prematurely with an incomplete and corrupted file. It's coming in extremely slow each time as well. I don't suppose someone's hosted it on a mirror somewhere? As-is, I doubt I'll be able to download the mod. Note that I have a very strong ISP normally -- I was able to fully download and install Overwatch last night in under an hour.

Downloading via the forum link is fine. We don't have a bandwidth problem. Occasional CPU/RAM problems yes, when a few hundreds storm into this place that's usually housing a dozen. But bandwidth is okay.

All mods have to reside in their own folder when installed with the mod manager. Otherwise, the game cannot recognize the mod's subfolders which contain the actually relevant stuff.

Hey, Vaxquis. You forgot to write a read me where to install it. Where ?

How do i install this sound mod ?
I put the snd folder in DMM.

ss2bmm says it's unrecognised.

Great stuff!
However I still like vanilla better!

What do you think 690 people have done before?
Oh well... There, I downloaded it again and against all odds it's working fine.
Testing the archive with 7zip also says it's fine.
[archive-test.png expired]

make sure you are using the latest version of 7zip.

It's a freakin'.miracle . . . . . Welcome back !

And you, miracle. I hope life's been treating you well. What brought you back out of the void? The anniversary? Either way, stay around, we have a few things on the assembly line.

The tech faq has a list of the most common tags. Otherwise it's just writing the word, selecting it and clicking the button, available in the full editor.

A while ago I asked Schatten about his opinion on Vaxquis' mod, because I wanted an informed opinion. I will summarise the points he made in his emails here in English for those interested:
He confirmed that the SHMUP ambient tracks had unequalized volume and praised the 'new' upsamples for their good equalizer work. He also made it clear that Vaxquis' mod is generally closer to the original sound and contains breaks/parts that SHMUP does not have. While he understands the liking for a vintage sound, he prefers a broader midband for the rock tracks and recommends to users to test a mix of Vaxquis ambient + SHMUP rock tracks and see what they like.

Is there a high quality version of the Intro music (military, science, consumer)?
Because in the SS2-E3 trailer (http://www.sshock2.com/ss2mmdb/movies.htm), there is no background music for the advertising speaker, which means that a higher sound quality for Muzman's Cutscene could be made.

By "Intro", do you mean "Intro", "CS1" or "CS2"? AFAIR, BGM from CS2 is one of the SS2 songs, the others ain't there - but, in any case, remixing music for cutscenes is somewhat impossible, for a bunch of reasons; mainly: little application, no source data, no apparent quality gain for a regular player.

@Schatten

Good to hear from you! As to FOD, well, I've stumbled upon him because, frankly, I *was* on the 8-bit/chip scene for a short while myself (quite a long time ago, since it was about 10 years back from now); I've been trying some compos of the era (Barwars mainly), making chip samples (I've recently switched to building real analog BJT/op-amp/555 synths and sequencers, as a side note) - and even in DnB I still love the sine bass, saw leads and square chirps.

@Join usss!
Jazzin' All Night [ http://modarchive.org/index.php?request=view_by_moduleid&query=168624 ]; I'm giving full credits for the original version to Stephen Hemstritch-Johnston (FearOfDark); I mailed him before doing it and he said "OK". I found the hook riff in the original version superb, but drums, pads and editing/samples lacking, clearly hinting the piece was made with tracker software - so I got my tools up and running and came up with this upbeat funk remix.

@voodoo47
yup, that was the idea; I'm open to peer review of the quality of my edits, but, speaking for myself, I find it more strictly adhering to the original "feel" of the tracks, and I find the original "feel" fantastic, without any need to change it by reckless editing.

@Kolya
I would like that myself... especially for some people to a) compare vanilla/SHMUP/VSR samples out-of-the-game (regular listening test), b) compare them in-game, especially upbeats (I've done a short playthrough and everything seemed to be working alright, but some testing is always nice). I've provided some samples for comparison in the zip, but they were specifically chosen to show the most of the difference - and because I don't want anybody to be too heavily biased by them, I'd be grateful for "full sanity check" of the mod. Any volunteers to meet/beat SHODAN *yet again*?

so let me get this right - this is SHMUP, but better? if that's the case, we should replace the link in the mod guide.

@Join usss! : I've recently *almost* finished this tune - it's *another remix*, but the setting is completely different to what I was doing in terms of computer music - but at the same time a lot nearer to what I actually play live [funk/jazz].

You've reminded me of this hardcore classic by Rap: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ffxom5oYFJk

Love that bass.

Edit: ok, I listened to Engineering 2 remix again. I redact my penalties. the dupstep-y bit isn't bad, and not even dubstep-y really. These days if I hear anything remotely dubstep-y I want to kill it with fire, so I was quick to judge.
I really like how you approached the track with such variety. Unfortunately it wouldn't be suitable for the game as the sense of technophobia in it is completely gone, but it wasn't your intention for it to be played in the game anyway.
Interesting remix.
