Halo Ambient OST

Description
This is a mod focusing on adding in music from across the Halo series, with a focus on the ambient and atmospheric side of things. This mod does not include or cover the bombastic and grand themes and such, but instead adds a selection of tracks more curated to fit within the existing soundtrack selection already within Stellaris!

Why should you use this mod over any others? As stated above, this mod is designed around only providing the quieter and more ambient side of the franchise. Most mods I've found on the workshop adding Halo music tend to be adding whole game OSTs un-curated, themed around aspects aside from ambience or are just plain out-of-date. With that in mind, this mod pretty much exists to scratch an itch none of the existing mods provide for me, and I hope someone else finds it useful too.

Due to the length of some of the songs, some have been edited to take out sections which didn't fit the Stellaris game feel. I've named these tracks with the suffix of (Act I) or similar, reflecting which part of the song the selected section is from.

As of now, I've got tracks in from the following media;

*Halo: Combat Evolved
*Halo 2
*Halo 2: Anniversary
*Halo 3
*Halo 3: ODST
*Halo: Reach
*Halo 4
*Halo 4: Forward Unto Dawn
*Halo 5: Guardians
*Halo Wars
*Halo Wars 2

Tracks from other media such as Combat Evolved Anniversary, Spartan Assault/ Strike, Legends and Fall of Reach: Animated are planned to be included shortly.

A good addition would be "On the Prowl" from ODST, it's be awesome watching a fleet warp in with hundreds of ships with this song playing

Add Halo Infinite tracks if your still updating this!

Yeah I see what you mean. I figured it was just my headphones or something. I'll see if I can compress them at a higher quality. I was just a bit cautious about filesize as this is already 200mb.

I get a lot of popping when listening to this soundtrack that goes away when songs from other soundtracks popup

Danke, I'll try it out after work.

Update pushed - please let me know if you encounter more issues.

Ah! found the issue. A handful of .ogg filenames and their references in the notepad file weren't identical due to a couple of typos (capital letters where the corresponding file has none-sort of thing). Additionally it seems like the Halo 4 track Haven was missing. I'll be pushing an update shortly to rectify these. Thanks!

Hmm, odd. I haven't been experiencing it myself. I'll do a double-check through the track list/ music list and do a complete check of everything, see if I can find what might be causing it. Thanks for letting me know!

Still getting this issue, with other tracks as well.
