JRPG style battle and town music replacer

Description
--Updates--
16 July 2015
Added town night music. Changed victory music to play only after dragon battles so it doesn't get as irritating. Added FF10 boss battle. Not sure why it was missing.

02 May 2015
Finally got around to getting the victory and death music working. So far there is only the FF7 victory music but I am looking to add more. This is a WIP.

27 Aug 2014
Major bug fix update:
Mod now correctly plays boss battle music during dragon fights. Previously almost half the included music was not playing correctly. This should now be fixed.

--Mod Description--
This mod replaces the standard battle and town music with versions from various popular RPG games.

Games included:
Final Fantasy 6 (Black mages version)
Final Fantasy 7 (Black mages and new grounds)
Final Fantasy 8 (Black mages)
Final Fantasy 9
Final Fantasy 10
Chrono Cross
Star Ocean (2 and 3)
Neverwinter Nights (only town music, don't get antsy that it's not a JRPG.)

Got track suggestions? Post them in the comments. Thanks!

Compatibility:
This mod may conflict with any other mods that edit the normal skyrim battle music or town music. It both replaces and adds new tracks to the music list. No scripts have been added so there should be no issue with activating and deactivating this mod in the middle of a save.
This mod has been cleaned in tes5edit.

Troubleshooting:
Music not playing? Remember Skyrim usually only starts the music if a hostile is looking for you. If you are stealth killing, or super over powered, the music may not start.

Music won't stop playing? This is a Skyrim glitch that is just much more obvious because this music is much louder than the normal fighting music in Skyrim. Sometimes it can be fixed by simply saving and reloading the save. But sometimes it's caused by an enemy chasing you and might be very far away. I have consistently been able to cause this glitch by doing things like attacking a dragon then using COC riverwood to flee out of range. The dragon is gone but never gives up and the music keeps playing forever. If this does happen, it seems the only way to fix it is to reload a save from before the glitch happened. If this happens to you, look on your compass for any red dots. These will show the direction of an enemy currently hostile to you. You'll have to chase them down and pacify them. If they are particularly far away, try using the console command tcl to run through the air and mountains quickly.

Plans for the future:
Currently only daytime music in towns is replaced. I want to add night time music as well but JRPG's don't often have the calm somber music needed for night time in Skyrim. - Complete
Add victory music to the end. - This is WIP
I always want to replace/Add to the world music but again it needs to be something calm and sound like it at least kind of belongs.
Also, replace death music. - Complete

Notice:
I don't own any of the music included in this mod. This mod is provided free. If any copyright owners have issue with this music, please contact me and it will be removed immediately.

TL/DR. Basically you can use and distribute and modify, but you can never sell it for money, even if you modify it.

50 - Rust Color - Star Ocean 3
mus_citywealthy - Neverwinter nights
The others came from newgrounds.
Did you have the name of one in specific you are looking for? My source folder is a bit messed up after all these years.

Hey I had a question regarding some of the town music. I was wondering if you remembered which ones specifically you added. I was looking through it with TES5Edit, but most of them have pretty vague file names. specifically, I just am curious about the town music. there is one in particular I am trying to find because I liked it a lot, but for the life of me cant find out what it is. I know this is old, but i would really appreciate your help if you have the time. Thanks for the amazing mod!

@DCBiscuit no not that extensive, just the music is changed. An actual turn based combat mod would be sweet

Is every battle like Final Fantasy? If it is, is it Turn-Based or does it follow the Battle Bar System?

@DefiantBro
Select stuff that is semi appropriate for Skyrim.

I just have one question, Does this mod have all the music from all the games listed, or just select music scores that were cool/popular?

Hi Draken,
The Seymour fight should be in there, only triggered by dragon battles.

While I liked this mod, it's a little annoying. Just like in Final Fantasy games you only ever hear the start of the song. The song is over before it really gets going. Even on high difficulties the music is over before you really get to hear it. And for some songs, I think it's the Black mages playing the FF4 Battle theme, but I could be wrong, it just plays the same repetative bit every time and quite frequently. Sorry, I have to uninstall your mod, it's a nice idea, but doesn't really work for Skyrim. :sadcthulhu: Regardless of this, I've still given you a like.
