Let premium users have the classic music back!
« on: March 10, 2024, 08:43:40 pm »

Having played both v47 and the paid version of v50, I have to say that Dabu's work is incredible, but the original (two) songs just have that charm to them that I love. Unfortunately, only the free version of Dwarf Fortress has these tracks, and as far as I know there's not really a way to put them into the paid version.
Give us a toggle between the two soundtracks!

Can't play classic? Hah! Skill issue.

Jokes aside, yea premium textures and music could be separated.

There is a way, it's simple enough to mod in that I used it to test modding in music.

This is the github repository for the example sound mod, implementing the original soundtrack.
