New Feature: Play the music you like ingame!
In FXG 1.0.9Fix5 BETA4, we have introduced a new feature into our mod, which makes it possible for you to play your own music with our ingame music player.

To use this new feature, you need two things:
1.Your music files in .wav format (You can find many free tools to convert files in mp3, flac and other formats into wav files on the Internet). The names of these files can only use English letters and underline "_". Any things like spaces or Chinese characters in the file names may cause unexpected bugs.
2. A small tool that can be downloaded here: https://mega.nz/#F!4xwBiCKS!jPNDe7ENgeW5gcpBI9Hbqw

Then follow these steps:
1. Make sure that there are not any files or folders in your game data path except those .big files and "Animatics" folder. The path should be some place like "D:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Homeworld\HomeworldRM\Data\".
2. Create a folder named "Sound"(without quotation marks) in "Homeworld\HomeworldRM\Data\".
3. Put all your wav files and the MusicPlayerTool.exe into that Sound folder.
4. Run MusicPlayerTool.exe, it will generate some scripts for your music files.
5. Then launch the game with the mod as usuall. But you need type "-overridebigfile"(without quotation marks) into the "Commandline Arguments" space in the launcher before you click "launch".
6. Then launch a Deathmatch and enjoy your favorite music!

Remember this feature havn't been fully tested, please tell us if you get any problems.

This tool in particular is useful for converting files, as it allows you to save in maximum quality output (320 kbit/s) as opposed to most 'free' converters which save in 128 kbit/s (medium/low quality): http://media.io/

Hello, just wanted to let you know that the tool in step 2 lists as link removed. Can you repost it with an added space between www. and .com or something like it?

Thanks for the heads-up, unfortunately the ability to add your own tracks is not working at the moment. We can update the link when it is supported again.
