<div class="IPBDescription">but theres one thing its missing.....</div> a better soundtrack! I mean as much as I love the strange alien wierd music score.... it just doesn't do it for ya, I mean what makes lord of the rings, star wars, matrix, any good movie a good movie (besides millions of dollars in funding) great music!
1- I think that there should be more music in game , some people say its distracting but you could turn it off if you wanted, I think it'd add to the NS feel
2- music should react to the gameplay, if your an alien and all the sudden your hive's being sieged there should be some intense action music to set the mood for your fighitng back, or if you friend gets devoured by an onos there should be some herios ballad played as you run down that onos to save your friend
3- it should have booth "alien" sounding music and "marine sounding" music like the aliens would be all wierd sounding chords and effects, while the marines would be really electric guitar solo intense music ....
I dunno... I just wnated to get that off my chest, thats all

and music plays randomly, just replace the ns sogns with your own
The music was good but I cant hear much if theres alot goin on so every little bit helps me.
I suppose it can be done a metamod plugin or something that catches "hive under attack" and other similar events and triggers a music change.
Theres also a cvar that tells NS how often to play music from the music (or mp3, I cant remember) folder.
So if i change it, it will play more or less often? Or does it depend on the server?
Also I've heard of a program (not the VC music thing) that lets you change songs in winamp when you are playing. Is there such a thing? If so where can i get it, because i wouldnt mind playing music and then when it gets serious, i pause the music, kill some guys and then start playing the song again.
Then just download good background music. Prefably I like the FF10 otherworld song its good to pump the adrenaline while being a skulk and hearing heavy rock <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->
Or stuff from evangelion, orchestrated siphonys, but hey, that might not be your thing <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo-->

It's client side. I can't find the name of the cvar. But if you go to
customize->advanced->page2
you can put it in there. You can also select a different mp3 folder there. Oh, and its ...\nsp\music\
And if that winamp thing exist, plz post where to get it. I like the idea too <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->
BTW, what I said about the metamod plugin is crap. Metamod plugins are server side and we would need some kind of client side thing <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif' /><!--endemo-->
But you can't pause it and then resume it without using ALT+TAB. And we all know what usually happends when you do that: Bye-bye to all sound <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->

In Steam Alt-Tab does not lose your sound
NS is a game, not a movie....I want to play a good game, not listen to music. You <u>know</u> the good players will shut it off, and it just gives new players an excuse for not listening.
Volume, play stop next song what songs playing etc.
This thread has got me thinking, though. I'm going to make an Alien and Marine WinAmp playlist. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo-->
i turn music off, its good, but i rather not lission to it when playing, rather hear skulks tbh
now it's fun to camp in power silo <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->
