I would like to replace some of the music for the original John Williams soundtrack. Can you help me get a head start by telling me where did you found the music id-s and such in the game? Thanks!
There are some bugs. Multiple tracks playing at the same time. One starts before another one ends. And sometimes keep playing over each other. It becomes chaotic.
Known issue. They went for a more dynamic music system, than say Bethesda games, and some tracks are meant to play together. Replacing the tracks mean some occasional chaos here and there. And given the track IDs are random numbers instead of anything meaningful, makes fixing this a crapshoot.
However, if the modding tools will ever improve, I'll certainly do a complete overhaul.
Some of the tracks used are similar though. Like the different Hogwarts themes from the early game. So having similar sounding tracks as part of the same are might make them mix better, I suppose. But I guess that you have already thought about this, and to get area based themes to cover that are which they are associated with (like Hogwarts, older + newer themes).
Some themes were categorised by the community, like the Slytherin theme. But mostly, I listened to the original track and replaced with something similar in tone and length. A lot of the time, I got it right, but sometimes I missed the mark entirely.

I will most probably do this again for any sequel that happens.

Honestly, I did think about it, but decided that it wouldn't fit as well.
