Campfire Acoustics Thread - MISERY mod for S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Call of Pripyat

Hello everyone,

Let me begin by saying, MISERY is an excellent mod. However, the added radio music is really killing the experience / immersion for me. I simply wish to play STALKER MISERY without the added music, but with the stalker campfire acoustic songs enabled.

Here are some things I've noticed:

1. In Zaton and Yanov, the campfire acoustics are near mute. I can hear them faintly. Even on the Shevchenko and at the Yanov station when the radio is blasting.

2. In Pripyat, the campfire song audio is not muted. It plays at normal volume.

3. When I delete the "radio" folder from the gamedata folder, it removes all radio songs (YES!). However, the audio for the acoustic campfire songs is still near mute.

Therefore, I have two questions:

1.Is it possible to remove the added radio music and restore the original audio of the campfire acoustics (in Zaton and Yanov)?

2. In deleting the folder "radio" in the gamedata folder, have I inadvertently deleted anything else?

Thanks in advance. Any help is very much so appreciated.

I was working on a mod before misery and part of it was I touched on the guitar/harmonica songs. The range at which you can hear them is further and they fade out more slowly/evenly. I THINK these are the correct ones. I made this back in early 2011 so I am going by four and a half years of memory but I think I did them all. AFAIK the volume is controlled by the ogg commenting in the files themselves so it should solve your problem. Here is the rar link you're welcome to try them out. I should try them out too....the guitars having that wall of I can hear them, I can't hear them always bothers me.

If you try it let me know if it works....if not there might be an additional config file I don't know about.

As much as I have come to love most of the music, even if some of it is a bit unfitting, I would be down like a clown for having an option to remove it, have it much quieter or have it replaced with guitar and harmonica player.

I never paid much attention to what the dynamic music and EAX buttons actually effect. I always turn the background music off in any game. I would like an option to have harmonica/guitar music around fires and NPC's with such, and a mini-mod to convert your own personal playlist into random bar background music along with a button to suspend it for streaming to keep the internet sound police off your back.

Those sound police are pretty annoying I've been finding out.
