This mod is made in order to add custom battle music to the game. You can now add songs that fit factions for the base game or even from mods. You can also add music to fleets and ships. It is very easy to modify and implement. Now contains music for every major faction in the game.
For Developers:
Spoiler: click to expand
For Devellopers
To add compatibility for your mod you just need to add this in your .faction
The name of the list of songs can be different from the one above and need to be different from any other existing list. You can also use song lists present in the game already.

This is now solved and compiled in the right version. Thank you very much for bringing this to me.
The mod now contains songs for every major faction. Most of the songs are from the game Stelaris.
Been trying this mod out. Gotta say, quite interesting playing with battle music after having no music in the battle layer.
Putting Tanc a Lelek for Pathers as they bring out the Tanker IEDs to destroy your fleet feels… just right as well.
The custom version had an issue with the music not being present. Those files are now present. Sorry for the inconvenience.
I was wondering, is it possible to have different music playing in regards to the difficulty of the fight? Like having some more dire music playing when you’re facing off against a much harder fleet, to really get you in the zone for fighting a truly bad threat?
I’ve wanted this for ages, thank you!

Seconding this. Should be possible since the game tracks how “difficult” a battle is.

I might need to look into it But i agree this could be great to add
ay, this is something I’ve wanted for a while. very nice
The problem with using unlicensed Music from other sources is that you will get mod sharks “not going to mention names” to start questioning your rights to such materials until eventually, they get your mod off this website, this is why historically this game had only 1 audio mod.

If this becomes the case I will remove the Custom Music version. I am currently looking for Royalty Free music to replace some of the current songs.
This is great, thanks for it! I dont mind the unlicenced music, stay away haters
Niiiice. I can imagine Mass Effect or Total Annihilation music going very well with this!
I bet people could use this to create music lists that they can share with each other, to give different situations and even mod factions new music.
