Medbay is one of the more standard ones (it still has that odd A-pairs change that happens with the 'tubular bells' section as a transition). If you want something really in-depth, I could share my Wwise projects which have everything broken down to be put back into XCOM 2 (again without the original MIDI names). I now believe that some of the section labeling isn't quite right, but I don't remember which since I didn't maintain those names. No problem! If you look in the thread I linked earlier, I've already labelled the MIDIs (the tags with the original names didn't stick for some reason). I'll update the doc with more locations as I get to the tracks.Īgain, thanks! I'm not exactly sure which segment is peril in Medbay though because none of them are labeled, everything in my Google Doc was done by playing the game and trying to figure out where everything fits.

I haven't dug further than Medical Suites at the moment since I've been focusing on just getting basic track insertion to work though I suspected that the sub-song locations of Medical Suites aren't the same for the entire game.

Deus Ex lacks something that System Shock has though, which is the ability to layer tracks. When the game needs to go into combat, it just calls the appropriate pattern. There are multiple small tracks that will layer on top of the music dynamically or play during special events, along with a couple of special tracks, like for entering a radiated room or dying.Įvery segment is a separate MIDI file, separated as a sub-song in the XMI format.ĭeus Ex works different but achieves the same result - the music for that was composed with a tracker, which has parts of music separated into patterns. This only composes 9 of the up-to 49 segments in the music however. Normal plays during non-combat, and Combat plays during. I explain it in the opening of the doc, but the music is separated into two main segments: Normal and Combat.

My assumption is that the music tracks would work similar to how they work in Deus ex (except being midi), where you have a main section that plays in non combat bits and a section which it can jump to dedicated to combat.
