Tropico 6 OST-Music

[tsirosmixalis]

Does anyone know where the game's music folder is? Game was bought on steam. I really want to add music from Tropico 4 and 5 in.

It is not that easy. The music is stored as WwiseAudio .wem files inside a compressed .pak file.

Theoretically you could extract the pakchunkEN_VO-WindowsNoEditor.pak with something like UE4PakUnpacker so that you have all the music in the game. Then convert the Tropico 4 music to .wav files and use WwiseAudio to convert those to .wem files. Add those to the \Tropico6\Content\WwiseAudio\Windows folder you created earlier and then put it back into a .pak file using Sladernimo’s Pack_Tools. Then put the new .pak file back into the C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Tropico 6\Tropico6\Content\Paks.

After you have done all of that, it will probably still not work because there is most likely a play list with the names of all the .wem files somewhere else in the game.

Actually now that I think about it, it might not be necessary to take that first step. If you created a folder C:/Pak_Tools/Unpacker/Unpacked/zzz_mod_T4_songs.pak/Tropico6/Content/WwiseAudio/Windows and put the .wem version of the songs into that, then created the .pak, it should just add those songs to the game. You would want to name the .pak file something like zzz_mod_t4_songs.pak so it loads after the other .pak files and put that into the C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Tropico 6\Tropico6\Content\Paks. Any valid .pak file in that folder will get added to the game on load.

But I am not sure it would play the songs. I can not find any file that contains a song list, but I am thinking there has to be one, otherwise how would the game know what songs are safe songs for streaming? It might be something that is compiled into the exe.
