About this mod
Replaces the music in the main menu with "Country Roads" by Bill Danoff, John Denver, or Copilot.
- Permissions and credits
- Changelogs
The music file for the main menu is archived inside the file
SeventySix - Startup.ba2
. Think of this file as a zip archive file, but you will need a a tool provided by Bethesda (Archive2) to open it and edit it. In there, the actual music file is under music\special\mus_maintheme.xwm
.I offer two different options. You can either download the .ba2 version
In the optional files you can find the covers by John Denver as well as COPILOT that was commissioned by Bethesda and can be heard in game on the Appalachia radio.
0.2: .ba2 versions updated for version 1.0.0.6
0.3: .ba2 versions updated for version 1.0.1.14
1.0: I will not provide edited
SeventySix - Startup.ba2
anymore. From now onward I will just offer an custom .ba2 that you have to add in your ArchiveList and forget about it. No more updates every time Bethesda updates the game. New installation instructions bellow.

%Game Directory%\Data\BakaFile.ini
and appendMMM - Country Roads.ba2
at the end, just afterBakaFile - Main.ba2
. You will have to do this each time you use Baka File Tool, since it rewrites it's .ini file every time. I have contacted ShadowShayde and hopefully a compatible version of Baka File Tool will be released soon.
