Since the patch today (4 February 2025) the no combat music creates a conflict with drop pod music - mods and standard. Have to turn off this mod in order to get the drop music now. It's seemingly due to the fact they placed the drop pod music in a different sub-folder in the new patch for some reason.
Unfortunately I can't replicate your problems on my end. Drop music works fine for me, with and without this mod, regardless of version on the most recent patch.
I can't speak for compability with other mods. My mod involves no patch for the file containing the ship and drop music. Maybe you have some residual files in your data folder that are causing conflicts?
I'm thinking of updating the mod to allow a choice to keep ambient music. I just don't have the time at the moment. =) Unfortunately I don't think having it replace the combat music is possible with good results.
Okay, that's of course most understandable. I won't know what is good or bad until I have heard it, just as anyone, but I did have the idea that this could be tried. Just to see what it would be like, it seems you would be the one to do so, and it's if you wish it. Maybe you won't do it as you say, as you think it wouldn't work, but I say that maybe it will? ;D
Same here! I think that the ambient music not only should stay, but that it could also be put where the action combat music normally plays as well. Best solution in my opinion.
Great idea but doesn't work for me. The music it says it doesn't stop is broken on my end. I hope you keep at it because if you do get it to work it would make the game much better with other music mods.
To be fair, I'm not entirely sure if this is a problem caused by the mod but In several missions against the bugs at the end when the shuttle comes, within the last 30 seconds the sound stutters, immediately followed by freezing and crashing the Game.
It hasn't happened to me against bots or the squids yet.
It could also be the game, but I've had crashes like this very rarely before and especially not always just at the end of the mission.
Apart from that, it's a really great mod that I would like to continue using, but I'll unfortunately take it down for now to test further to see if it still happens.
It is likely because of the mod, yeah. I'm still working out why it happens and what might have gone wrong. Hopefully the next version will have it fixed!
I haven't noticed any problems with the new version so far. The end of the mission runs smoothly and I haven't noticed any stuttering in the sound or anything else after various missions and no game crashes. Well done and thank you very much!

I have no other music mods installed beside this one

Edit: Without the mod no more crashes.
