Original Music

[jean5429]

Is there a way to activate the original music of the game? And also be able to chnage songs, as it originally have. The game music is really an important part of the nostalgia to me, hehe.

No. Looks like the makers of the KaM had the license to use the music just for original TSK/TPR games. Modern HD/Historical editions feature new "less good" music.

Also a nice feature, in KaM Remake you can add your own custom music.

its not really a mod, its a complete remake: new campaigns, better ai, some changes in the old maps, and a multiplayer with allot of gamemodes. and it also has the original music.

yes, you just need to install the steam version first boot it once and create a savegame. Then install the remake version.

These are amazing, I was hoping to get the .midi versions of these.

Oh, right, sorry. Are the OGG files in \hd\data\music not direct conversions of the SNG originals?

Edit: I have poor ears when it comes to this sort of thing, but "Spirit" is clearly #10.

Edit:
Busy = #12
Spirit = #14

Spring is there somewhere, surely. Forgive my crappy ears. ;)

What I mean is, the midi files that were in the program files a long time ago whose extension and file format is actually .mid. Those files can be uploaded into music notation software.

Ah, right, apologies. I downloaded the GOG release, but no .MID files, and while I did manage to track down an ISO of the original disc, it won't install on current versions of Windows due to deprecated 16-bit support. :(

At this point, the best I can suggest is contacting TopWare and asking if they happen to have access to the files.

Edit: And the KaM Remake devs, too.

Late edit edit: I used Depot Downloader to download the original content depot as it existed prior to the 2014 "HD" update; sadly, no MIDs, just SNGs. Considering .SNG is a type of MIDI file, albeit one with numerous permutations (making conversion practically impossible unless you happen to know the particular piece of software used to create the tracks), I suspect you may be misremembering things somewhat and the game never shipped with .MID files.

Late edit edit edit: After some mucking around, I managed to successfully install TSK and TPR from their respective ISO files. Neither the disc images nor the game installation folders contained .MID files.

Somebody patch this new music out of the game.

I want the old music!!!

[osip667]

I will not buy this game,because of the music. Maybe for new players it is not big deal,but for us veterans it is important.
