Title: Adding atmospheric music
Post by: Yann on February 13, 2023, 10:48:05 pm: Hi all,

I like to add new music to the game to make the experience even more atmospheric. I really enjoy the music that for example the X-Com Files mod adds to the game. Have any of you added your own favorite tracks to the game? And if so, would you share a link to that track?

I have added these two tracks from Fallout 1 to the game, which IMO work perfectly for the geoscape but also for several battlescape maps, like industrial city maps:

Metallic Monks:
Mysterious and eerie.

Vats of Goo:
Mysterious and ominous.

I like to use these two Doom tracks for several types of battlescape maps. They might seem like weird choices but they work well for me:

Monster Condo:
Hypnotic droning foreboding.

The Healer Stalks:
Lighthearted and kind of witty, but surprisingly effective for daytime (city) maps.

Any feedback about what kind of music you like to add is welcome!
