Additonal Music Mod

Hello guys,
I told you I was wanting to make an additional music mod for PotC adding all appropriate tracks that I can find. I was hoping you guys might be able to give me a hand, because I have a question: Which tracks from music_alias.ini are not used in the game (and might I thus `re-enable`)?
Also: I was wondering if you might know of any tracks from films/games or whatever that I could also use. I'll probably be adding tracks from Sea Dogs, Pirates of the Caribbean (movie), Cutthroat Island, some from the game No Man's Land and maybe some more if I can find them. If you know of anything else that might be usable: Please say so.
Thanks in advance...
 
Main Theme, March, Sailing 2, Abordage, Paluba and Board & Capture are all not used for all I know. Anything else?
 
I don't recognize `Gorod-2` or Victori, and there are two YoHo .ogg's - one with just music, the other with singing, haha!

Aye, but we're loved by our mommies and dads, drink up, me hearties, yo ho!..." <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />
 
Tracks are buy music_XYXY, not filename, so abordage, Paluba, and B&C would all be the same track.
Sailing02 is part of music_enplavanie (as is Enplavanie).

I think you've got them all, though; so it'd be
music_main_theme
music_final_theme
music_enplavanie
music_abordage

You can add your own of course, and activate those too. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />
 
So we HAVE heard Sailing02, but only part of it, because music_enplavanie switches randomly between it's tracks? <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/huh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":huh" border="0" alt="huh.gif" />
 
One o' Fred Bob' favorites be 'Abordage', but he cain't remember e'er hearin' it in de game! <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheeky" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" />
 
Drunken: Nope, because music_enplavanie is never called.
One of the tracks in it, however--enplavanie.ogg--is played as part of another block (music_gorod, i.e. town themes).
 
Nathan,if one wanted tew add SMP sail singing_001 to POTC to play only when entering a port or leaving port is this possible being its not an ogg file <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/par-ty.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheers" border="0" alt="par-ty.gif" />
 
You'd need to convert it to OGG first, yeah.

Then you'd have to add a handler in AIShip.c to play that piece of music if within X meters from a port anchoring locator.

(Is SMP worth getting? I've been holding out...)

As big a `time-stealer` as the original, fun game... <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/onya.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":onya" border="0" alt="onya.gif" />
