I believe that issue of music getting interrupted by musical cues is the game's music system working as designed, and there's no way I can fix that. Any event or action that triggers a sound or a musical sting when it activates is going to reset the music subsystem when the cue is done playing. There's nothing I can really do about that as a modder (besides removing all musical cues from the game).

very good mod, i like the turkish music, but can you add a update, because the musics stop swhen a war breaks out or something happens, and then some depressive music starts

Splendid, thank you!

It only adds songs, it does not overwrite anything.
Locer Gamal 15 May, 2023 @ 5:41am 
Does this mod overwrite already existing songs in the game? Or does it just add onto them.
Delnar_Ersike  [author] 2 Dec, 2022 @ 5:09am 
There is no YouTube playlist, especially since a lot of the songs used are not uploaded to YouTube. But if you get a hold of the mod's files (there are many ways to do this, e.g. browsing the GitHub repository), you can find the source of every song in the LICENSE file inside.

Do you have a YouTube playlist or anything to listen to this out of game?
Delnar_Ersike  [author] 23 Nov, 2022 @ 4:05am 
I believe it should work with 1.8.0, yes. I designed the mod in a way that makes it as future-proof as possible. If it doesn't work, I'll have to check the files again.
Lunar Blacksmith 22 Nov, 2022 @ 11:28pm 
Does this work with 1.8.0?

Update?
Delnar_Ersike  [author] 14 May, 2022 @ 7:08pm 
Mod has been updated to be able to use 1.5's cultural triggers. I also added three Gregorian chants, five Orthodox chants, and four Middle Eastern songs (and removed two songs that weren't actually royalty-free).
Dallan 24 Mar, 2022 @ 5:35am 
This probably needs to be updated for 1.5 because culture group triggers now don't work - you have to use culture heritage triggers.

ok for the jokes you should just add one song from georgia (the state) and have a little chuckle.
Hardened_Mass 16 Jan, 2022 @ 3:55pm 
I'll see what I can dig up.
Delnar_Ersike  [author] 15 Jan, 2022 @ 3:50am 
@Hardened_Mass: Do you have any sources that are explicitly royalty-free? Just because a song is up on YouTube does not mean I have the legal right to redistribute it through a free mod. The song either needs to be in the Public Domain, have a Creative Commons license, or otherwise explicitly have a license that allows for royalty-free redistribution in a non-commercial work. And yes, it has to be explicitly stated.

Also forgot to mention that the tradition of Sean Nos singing goes back at least 800 years, possibly far longer according to some sources.
Hardened_Mass 15 Jan, 2022 @ 1:52am 
Could you add some Irish Sean Nos style singing? It is a haunting acapella story singing in the Bardic Tradition with raw vocal breaks that just tear your heart out! A great example of the style is found in this YT video... http://steamproxy.net/steamstore http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R-q5vm5P6L4 [/url] . There's also a scene in LOTR Two Towers where Pippin has to sing for Denethor which is heavily influenced by Sean Nos. Lots of YT vids!

... did you read the Readme on the GitHub page? "Medieval-style"/bardcore remakes of modern songs do not belong in this mod.

Coldplay's Viva la Viva in "medieval theme"
- The original sound talks about Louis XVI (the last king of France before losing everything from his neck upwards).
A good theme for our kings and dukes who loses everything to peasant rebellions, a crusade, eternal yihads, the wrath of the norsemen, or even bad genetics.

@Delnar_Ersike Thank you for the reply. I have now added your mod to my little collection.
Delnar_Ersike  [author] 19 Mar, 2021 @ 3:08am 
Fronto: Yes and yes. This mod does not remove any existing music or sounds, and I only picked additional tracks whose sound "texture" meshed well with the game's original music (so less intense stuff).
Fronto 19 Mar, 2021 @ 2:02am 
Does the game's original music still play, and do the contextual triggers (war, death..) still work?

I'd love to have this, but feel the need to know if it's a replacement or addition to the game's music.
Barracuda 17 Mar, 2021 @ 6:43am 
Thanks for the quick fix
Anarchaz 16 Mar, 2021 @ 12:32pm 
1.3?
GinaTonik 10 Dec, 2020 @ 7:01pm 
I just wanted to come back to tell you how much I enjoy this mod. Thank you and thanks for making it achievement compatible.
Delnar_Ersike  [author] 12 Nov, 2020 @ 4:24pm 
It can take a while to "kick in", yes. The tracks are assigned random weights, and though it is rare to not hear any of them within the first hour or so, it is entirely possible because of the way random chance works.
General Cruster 12 Nov, 2020 @ 1:57pm 
Is there something special I'm supposed to do to get this to work? It's enabled but all I hear is the base game music. Does it take a while to kick in?
mtsr83 28 Oct, 2020 @ 2:22pm 
very chill and atmospheric music.. I like it
Thank you
Scrapulous 26 Sep, 2020 @ 2:40pm 
This is a great collection of music. Thanks very much for doing all this work!
simonb1er 21 Sep, 2020 @ 10:20am 
thank you!
Delnar_Ersike  [author] 18 Sep, 2020 @ 3:23pm 
simonb1er: Yes, this mod should be compatible with any and all other music mods. However, the music in this mod is normalized to the same volume as the music in the base game, so if you are using a music mod whose music is normalized to a different volume, you may have an inconsistent experience with music volume.
simonb1er 18 Sep, 2020 @ 3:09pm 
Compatible with other music mods?
101 18 Sep, 2020 @ 7:03am 
great mod compatible with others.
Delnar_Ersike  [author] 14 Sep, 2020 @ 6:45pm 
Note that the mod Fenghuang linked to has music that is NOT royalty-free and NOT appropriately licensed. If you upload any CK3 footage to YouTube containing those songs, prepare to get your video claimed by one of the various authors whose videos are in the playlist used by that mod.

One of the most important requirements for any music, including any bardcore tracks, to get included in this mod is that it MUST be licensed for royalty-free rebroadcasting and redistribution. I have not found a single bardcore track that would match that condition, which is the main reason why I have not included any bardcore tracks in this mod. If you do find ones that match this condition though (and my other two conditions, both listed on the GitHub repository), I'd be happy to include them in the mod.
Fènghuáng® 14 Sep, 2020 @ 10:24am 
Those asking for Bardcore, there's already a mod for that: https://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2218178473
erekos 12 Sep, 2020 @ 7:34pm 
We must have Bardcore
Delnar_Ersike  [author] 9 Sep, 2020 @ 4:11am 
Rognvaldr: If you can find me bardcore that fits with the requirements listed on GitHub (short version: properly licensed, high quality recording, stylistically appropriate), I'd be happy to include some.
Erilaz 9 Sep, 2020 @ 3:22am 
It's all well and good
But
Can we get some...
B A R D C O R E ? :D
