VIET Music is a series of music packs designed to add a variety of interesting and diverse music to the game, ranging from Renaissance guitars to Mongol throat singing and West African drums. They can be downloaded as separate packs or in compilation collections of 8 packs each. This thread is designed to be an archive of all the music packs I make. 1-2 new music packs are uploaded with every VIET/HIP update.
All music is legally available online, so you don't have to worry about legal issues. I have provided information in every download as to where I got the music (check out the links included in them - many of the sites have more music that you can download for free). Except in rare cases, all music included can play at any time (unlike DLC music which was originally programmed to only play in certain situations). However, almost all songs are programmed to be more likely in certain situations.
While these music packs are intended to be used alongside VIET, they can be used with any mods, or with no mods at all. In other words, the music modules DO NOT require VIET or any other mod at all!
If you want more information on adding your own music, or customizing when music can be played, look at this thread here: http://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/showthread.php?593803-Adding-Own-Music-Mini-Tutorial-(Or-What-it-s-got-code-No-don-t-run-away
Modding in your own music is extremely easy, and can be learned in a matter of seconds even if you have no experience with modding or coding. I highly suggest doing so to further customize your CKII experience!
Installation Instructions
1. Download the .rar file.
2. Open up the file before unzipping the files. Look inside the correct folder for the music you want.
3. Copy the contents into "crusader kings ii/music." Note that you must extract both the .ogg files AND the text file. The text file is the code necessary to allow the game to get the new music. For instance, if you want to downnload the "Middle East 1" music, go into the "Middle East 1" folder, and copy "middle_east_1.txt" AND all the .ogg files into vanilla's music folder. Make sure you don't copy the other text files - this will cause CTDs!
4. Launch CKII.
5. Play, and have fun!
6. Post suggestions, feedback, complaints, and other comments on the VIET Music thread.
