Main menu music swaps
For frosty or dai mod manager. This mod provides alternate music for the main menu. At the moment there is only a limited selection but I hope to add more as I recently learned a different method of adding the music! (15 October 2020 update.) So consider this a work in progress!The main to credits swap starts with the tavern song "rise", then moves onto the "journey to skyhold" music, then moves onto some of the romance music - I'm not totally sure of whether or not it's the "Thedas love theme" but it's definitely some of the romance music, and then finally moves onto the "elder one theme." It will replay after it finishes it's first run of all the songs.
I was naming these by ear so I may not be correct about all the songs because the music files aren't all named in obvious ways but those are my best guesses.
If you wanna know about the other music options, I suggest checking the files tab, as there are a lot more options than what is mentioned in the description. I linked to audio of the songs in the file descriptions where I could. ^^
Use the ambient sounds removal mod from the miscellaneous files section to mute the howling wind and other ambient sounds in the background of the main menu so you can hear the music better.
DLC Requirements
Besides the standard requirements of a mod manager and some unzipping program to open up the files with, some (but not all!) of these swaps require trespasser, since I used audio files from that DLC in some of the files.
Currently, trespasser is required for the following files:
The Dark Solas Swaps
The Lost Elf and Qunari Atmosphere Swap
The Trespasser Bard Instrumentals
All versions of the bard songs slightest, Scout Lace Harding, Inquisitor, Fall of the Magister, and Companions - the instrumental, acapella, and regular versions of these songs all require trespasser.
The rest of the files besides these ones shouldn't require anything but the base game, however.
Conflicts
Only install one music swap from this page at once - you can use one of the music options in combination with the ambient sounds removal file no problem, in fact, I encourage this as it makes it easier to hear the music, but do not install multiple of the music swaps themselves at the same time.
You don't need to install both the daimod and fbmod versions of the mod, just choose the files that correspond with your mod manager - the daimods are for dai mod manager, the fbmods are for frosty mod manager.
Please note that to avoid bugs with the skyhold war table, the elder one theme files also edit the bundles of skyhold, which means it cannot be used in combination with other bundle mods if they edit skyhold, except for character generation bundle mods which it should work with if you load my mod below them. The other files besides those ones do not edit any bundles so should not conflict with bundle edits, it's just the 2 elder one main theme files (daimod and fbmod versions of it.)
Known issues
Selecting "exit to menu" on the elder one theme main swaps results in an infinite load. I don't know how to remedy this glitch so I recommend that if you want to close your game with those files installed, you shut the game with the shortcut alt + f4, instead of using "exit to menu" to get to the "quit" button.

Padme4000 for testing, and teaching me a better method to swap the music so I can add different songs now <3
