I like this. I think some of the music is very well chosen, but there are a few screens associated with some of the races where I'd prefer music I already own. Without meaning any disrespect to the composers of the TLF score, being able to swap my own MP3 files in would make it more atmospheric for me, and I imagine for all players. A reasonable selling point, too.

If you want to replace a track, like the black market tune, can't you just move BlackMarket.ogg from the game directory and replace it with your own BlackMarket.ogg?

Yep! Precisely what Ljas says. That's already supported by the game, but you must use .ogg files instead of .mp3 files. .mp3 decoding requires an expensive license, and the unity 3d engine does not include that.

For combat, you can add or remove any files in there that you want, and it will just play them all. The other files are specific references that you would have to replace the file.

My bad: should have guessed. After all, I replaced OGG files with my own in Crusader Kings II.
