had a few ideas for when you end up updating this:
- mwo solaris 7 osts (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1a37-ugr_6U) (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1mLaQPJV1bI) (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EUe7HMZSIrA)
- having scripted missions keep their music (from what i can tell they seem to randomly choose like procgen missions)
- being able to disable the music changing mid-mission (so that one mission will consistently play 1 track)

DeadRaiser many thanks for working on this mod, my 2nd favorite. Below Lance status and even greater than YAML. Thanks!

Just poking DeadRaiser, expressing eagerness for this mod and hope that updates are progressing well. :D

Just wanted to say thanks for working on the mod, i had a lot of joy using it and im happy to see that you are working on the update. What many seem to forget is that most modders do it in their free time beside a full time job. I dont know if that is also your situation but i just wanted to thank you anyway for creating this!

@Ghostbear how about reading literally two comments below yours to see that your "demand" is being answered.

For the love of all that is good please update this for DLC7!!!!

Thanks for the info. I'm very happy to wait as long as it's not abandoned/forgotten. Imho one off the best mods that makes MW5 Mercs much less repetitive.

It will get a DLC update but I am working on a bunch of other mods that also need to be updated as well

Any chance we'll get an update for DLC7?
I haven't tried turning the mod on yet so if anybody knows if it's compatible with SoK please let us know.

I knew I heard T Seals' stuff in here! Absolutely stellar collection. Thanks a million for compiling and making this.

@DeadRaiser Ah i see, kinda a bummer i love that game OST. but I'm liking your mods so far, specially when i heard MW4 vengeance menu one.

@Zeon audio quality on its tracks I found were pretty poor and the runtime on each one is no more than 30 seconds with a few exceptions.

aw no mech commander gold?

Love this mod so far

@Emerald Lime yes I know it’s on my list.

Ghost bear dlc music must be added:

its that good

@Proxy No. If you read the modpage you’ll see that largely defeats the purpose of the mod

can we get a version of this without MW5 music? i bloody hate MW5's music

@Iaxus__dreyar not possible with the way audio is handled in MW5

It would be great to have the option to choose the different soundtracks to use, because it would be cool to be able to choose according to your preferences like the Soundtracks of Mech Commander 2, MechWarrior 4 Vengeance and Mercenaries instead of having to suffer through all the different soundtracks of all the games, you can't have the option to change which soundtracks to have in the game depending on the players' choices.

Rival merc's need Getting Away with Murder from MA2

DeadRaiser, thanks for the explanation. Yes, it looks just as you described. And it's probably imposible to bring so many tracks to one style. I can only hope for mod options to enable or disable individual tracks/or track packs.

@stanislav in vanilla there are four interconnected music tracks: Ambient, Activate, Combat, and Climax. The vanilla music is made to be split and seamlessly transition between each. This is not possible with a mod like this as I have to essentially replace all of those vanilla transitions with just two sets of tracks: Ambient and Combat. There is no other way to do that without adding on several hundred hours of work remaking all the tracks in the mod to follow the vanilla formula and that’s not something I have time to do with a mod like this. Most other music mods do the same thing I do, just that it maybe more noticeable thanks to the sheer number of tracks included in the mod.

Love the music mods on MW, but I'm having trouble with this mod. In vanilla - each mission has 1 ambient track and 1 battle track. One track seamlessly transitions into the other, leaving a cohesive experience. In this mod the music changes several times per mission and it's more like a mix or mash of tracks not connected by one mood and style. (maybe it is just my personal issue)

fixed the issue i was having by installing a different music mod then disabling that mod

@DeadRaiser Sounds great! Thanks bud. I'll see what I can dig up from the harddrive sometime.

@SirDubDub YOOOOOOOOOO what's up? Glad you liked the mod! I remembered your old fan animation from years ago and the co-author on this mod, Quark Bent, showed me that you had made other standalone music. Loved all of it and fit what I wanted to do with the mod (Celebration of BattleTech). If you ever want to have other stuff included or you have questions about things, let me know. I am always open to talk :)

Awww so nice to see some old project randomly show up today (this is D.C. Bruins). Cheers bud!

Great mod! The only thing that could make it better is if the music synced with other players in coop like the last music mod I was using. The variety of music alone makes it worth installing, however.

@Rusty_Nols that’s nothing to do with my end of things.

disabling the mod in game does not disable the mod, unsubscribing from the mod does not disable the mod.

@OtioseFanatic very slim to not at all. I make my opinion on why they weren't originally included in the spreadsheet.

Any chance of the MW3 and Pirates moon OST being added?

@FuZzOtagE thanks. I just recently found some more tracks from MW2's Titanium Edition OST that I'll be adding in a small update soon.

This is some of the best video game music I have ever heard. Thanks for doing this. I almost always turn music off in games, but everything Ive heard in this is so dang good. The last MW I played before Mercs was MW2 and I dont even remember most of the music..when I hear it, its familiar, but barely. This is just so great. THanks again

Had this subscribed while playing the Rise of Rasalhague campaign. Fits better lmao

The Marauder Song started playing while I was stomping around in a Marauder

10/10, best mod ever

@Nimbyman thanks for the heads up. What that means is SSW is changing the game’s music somehow. As I mentioned below, Sounds of the Succession War is not up to date with the latest game version so it will likely have some issues such as missing audio as well.

PSA, to anyone having trouble, this mod does not work if you have Sounds of the Succession Wars mod (either normal or the lite overhaul version) enabled. In my case, my game wasn't even telling me they were conflicting, but once I disabled SSW, this mod started working.

Youre a legend for making this mod

Version 1.2 is up. 59 new tracks have been added to head bang to while you engage in heavy metal carnage!

thank you

@slayer557 Sounds of the Succession War will work, but the mod itself is heavily outdated. It hasn't been properly updated for mechs and weapons added after DLC 1 causing them to lose all audio. The reason I put Audiostash and Nostalgic Sounds Redux is because they are the only audio mods still up-to-date with the current version of the game.

Does this work with the Sounds of the Succession Wars mod?

I just wanted to say thank you for this compilation! This is such a good collection of tracks. Some of these I am familiar with from MW4 days but many I am not. So this is very much happy discoveries. Cheers!

confirmed fix, you are awesome dude - music is really a value add to the experience

Yaasss I'll test it now! :)

Fixed auto-ducking and loss of sound on the Merc Stingers. They'll now play and not completely mute all other audio.

@Raynor I think I've got it figured out. I'm running some tests to see if it's sorted now

ahhhh I see someone already reported issue with lowering volume by some songs ... well we shall see since I really like the song combos
