Changing the title screen music while also using extra launch parameters?

[Vindicator]

Greetings,

 

-uiskin 2 uses the title screen music from Freedom.  I'd like to change that on my computer to the title screen music from Going Rogue.  Is there a way to change the title screen music while also using extra launch parameters (in this case -uiskin 2)?

 

Thanks.

Use this:

And install this mod:
https://mods.cityofheroes.dev/modView.php?id=206

then -uiskin 2 will play the original GR music.

Thanks, Michiyo.  Although it does work with -uiskin 2, the music seems slightly different.  I was trying to get -uiskin 2 to play with this version https://archive.paragonwiki.com/w/images//7/72/P_Music1_loop.ogg .  Is there a way to do that?  Thanks.

 

Edit: I tried to create the mod, but I don't know how to convert the .ogg to a .pigg for the Mod database.

Maybe you could try a simple replacement? Just rename that file N_MenuMusic_loop.ogg, and put it in Homecoming > data > sound> ogg > Music

That's how I got my game to play the Ominous Voice version of the OG theme, anyway.

That did the trick!  Thanks 🙂

Both are the same, except the one in the mod is *slightly* louder, just ran them both through audacity and they are identical except the volume unless I'm missing something?

The version I posted has more distinct vocals.  Both are nice, I just prefer the other one /shrug.  Thanks.

I have a lower tech version for this. I mute my computer and crank up my stereo to things like AC/DC, Black Sabbath, Iron Maiden, Led Zeppelin.....while as long as my wife and baby aren't home (then I'm just playing on mute).

Don't lie, you play this in the background:  😉

We haven't got to that point yet. For now when the baby is home I'll play some bass and drum instrumentals.
