Sorry for the late response. I've been playing the game and was a lot less annoyed by the in game music once I got out of Greater Faydark.

That zone music has since been replaced.

One thing I would love to figure out how to do is use Midi music from EQ1 in EQ2.

Here is a list of some of the original eq1 midi's

I don't know much about how EQ2 runs music but if it's possible to make minor changes to allow for a different music file type to play I'd be grateful for that knowledge.

Thanks again.

edit.. well looking into this I don't believe it would be a simple thing. If what I read is correct midi files don't actually contain music but rather commands to tell your computer to synthesize music. I guess I'll see what they sound like when converted to MP3



edit2... Had a thought but I don't know how feasible it is. Would it be possible to have a program running in the background on my computer that reads my EQ2 log file and starts a midi file whenever a certain zone message begins?

Anybody had success with something similar to this in the past?
