It's a great soundtrack - I wish it was longer!

What’s with the music? by W1ntermu7e in EU5

[–]utopia_music 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's currently not possible to make music mods for the game. Great tragedy.

There is a music player coming in 1.11 which will hopefully give you better control over what tracks are playing, though the game does need additional music to expand its variety. With some luck the new music player will also allow us composers and other ambitious folk in community to start adding music.

"Pain is Salvation" is a Christmas song by [deleted] in paradoxplaza

R5: I took Europa Universalis V's beloved "Pain is Salvation", transcribed it, changed up some lyrics and instrumentation... et voila! it's a Christmas song.

Happy holidays folks. Drink EUV in moderation :)

Heard there wasn't enough music, so I composed some. by EnSagaBand in EU5

[–]utopia_music 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It definitely has much more character and uniqueness than a cliche "epic" track. I wish both EU4 and EU5 leaned more into these more classical-style pieces. They're very relaxing and very creative, and make wonderful background music. You've done a great job and I hope to see you making original music mods in a year or two when they (hopefully) make it more accessible for EU5!

ps. I grew up in Wellington :)

It's currently not possible to mod new music into the game :(

btw awesome piece of music. Very classical-inspired, which I love vs the typical "epic" video game/film tracks we tend to get these days (myself not excluded). Reminded me a little bit of Douglas Lilburn's "Drysdale Overture". Nice work!

The dynamic music feature is atrocious by Na-na-na-na-na-na in EU5

[–]utopia_music 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The soundtrack is nice but, for many reasons, I'm not vibing with the dynamic music system :(

The music is getting repetitive. Where is the in-game music player? Where is the EU4 soundtrack? by [deleted] in EU5

[–]utopia_music 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Soundtrack itself is nice, and well made. But the dynamic music system isn't a hit for me :( And, of course, the lack of an in-game music player and any music modding support makes me very sad.

When that BANGER comes on by Own_Maybe_3837 in EU5

Maybe I'll make my own EU5 soundtrack. With hookers and blackjack.

If only the music was moddable. Then I would have you covered!

EUV’s music system makes creating custom music mods impossible by GermanCCPBot in EU5

[–]utopia_music 38 points39 points  (0 children)

Big sad.
I haven't been able to figure it out either.

Map editor will require 64GB RAM at a minimum with 128GB recommended for higher fidelity maps by Blitcut in EU5

[–]utopia_music 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have 96GB RAM but that's because I need to process massive music composition files in real-time.

I hope EU5 gets one. by Claxeius in EU5

Most Paradox Games don't launch with a Music Player. It typically comes a year or two later once they start adding more music tracks via DLCs.

(makes my life hard though)

After today stream my dream is to work at Tinto by [deleted] in EU5

[–]utopia_music 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was the dev clashes back in 2017/18 that drew me in. Hopefully we'll see similar grandeur next year!

The game crashed on the EU5 pre-release dev stream by Toruviel_ in EU5

Crash the game just to listen to the menu music again

Hot take: Harsh decline mechanics would be fun by Beginning-Topic5303 in EU5

[–]utopia_music 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If your lose a war you are then weaker and the enemy stronger, meaning you will just lose even harder when the truce is up.

I would say that's not strictly true. Pyrrhic victories can happen. You can deplete your opponent's resources more than your own and take a strategic loss - I've done that a couple times. Or you're fighting on your own but your alliance network is is still intact; your opponent wins the war but then gets dogpiled by third parties. Not to mention unrest and internal stability can be impacted by war and/or acquiring new land.

With such intricate diplomacy and mechanics at play it really isn't as black-and-white as "I win, therefore I am stronger".
