pawzseven Posted March 15, 2016 Share Posted March 15, 2016 (edited) hello, been trying to shut 3Dog up as my companion eyebot is constantly playing music or giving me news updates - and I prefer to wander the wastes in peace and quiet. I thought it would be simple enough - just rename the song folder in Data - and that did seem to work for one session, but then the songs and news came back again. Eventually I decided if I can't beat them I will join them, so downloaded a mod giving 100 new songs, but then thought, no, not what I want. Then I found a mod which described how to replace the standard songs with your own music. Tried that, and the songs I chose play fine when i click on the files, but do not figure in the game, so, finally I removed the entire song folder from Data - and it is STILL playing the old songs even though there is no folder in Data .. so where are they? in the .BSA? If someone can point me to a solution I would be most appreciative! :confused: well, have found that the songs are indeed held in the BSA sounds archive file, and have downloaded a tool and found out how to create a new BSA archive, but haven't got much further as not sure what to do - music files are already compressed, and do not know correct format; mp3, wav or .ogg is required, or how I put new files into the archive in correct order and syntax. I am no modder, so would be grateful for a pointer - or do I just give up? I have tried not having the sound BSA at all, but then I miss the sound of the wind in the trees ( yes I have leafy trees in my game) and the whirr of my little buddies as they follow me around... I ..just..want..to..get..RID..of, or replace..the 1930/40's boring........SONGS!! Edited March 15, 2016 by pawzseven Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pawzseven Posted March 15, 2016 Author Share Posted March 15, 2016 (edited) Frazzle and Sgt Rock - but the latter is not the problem. I have just put a mod on which ( I think) replaces the sound files from GNR with blank files, so for now it is peaceful and Frazzle is not saying or playing anything from GNR (bliss), but I have tried other ways of getting rid of the music files, and it has appeared to work for that session, but the next time I load the game, GNR is back, even when there has been no song file in the Data folder - so I am half expecting that the same thing will happen this time - I will know tomorrow..... :smile: yay - tomorrow has come and the airwaves are still free of GNR... hope this will fix it for keeps; one happy ol lady :) Edited March 16, 2016 by pawzseven Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
