Well, there have been a few minor changes in the end as to how the ruleset looks like, but the idea has been 'materialized' into code in the end: https://github.com/szabopeter/OpenXcom/tree/MusicRules
What I plan to do before submitting the pull request:
  • Compile a win32 version so that you don't have to compile if you want to give it a try
  • Testing with alternative rules
  • Code cleanup

Nice job! :)

I assume all the file-items in the "files" part (in the ruleset file) are required to be exist in the file-system...

Thanks, Fenyő!
Yes, the specified files are absolutely mandatory. If any of them are missing, you get a nice error message right after loading the rules. But if you override the standard rules, the original music files are not needed and not loaded.

Well, is there any chance that this feature is actually implemented?

I have so many ideas on what to do with this... :)

It is implemented, there has also been a pull request (which I will have to update sometime), but it will probably not be merged any time soon.

Right of course, I meant merged. ;)

Seeing as the nightly build is updated several times a day, and that the new versions are actually useful, I don't really feel like experimenting with external exes. Especially if I have to compile them myself.
