Augh, the music for the UQM is so.. bland in comparison to the original pc version.

Is there a music pack contained remastered MIDI samples of the EXACT same original sound?
I just played the original game (purchased a long time ago Tongue)  on dosbox and it STILL has some of the best sound ever made... buggy sound, but awesome.

First of all, UQM/SC2 uses .MOD files instead of .MIDI files (Everyone knows that MIDI sucks, unless you've got one of those MIDI keyboards)...

Second of all, they're already included... Smiley
Grab UQMloader from http://uqm.stack.nl/forum/index.php?topic=2193.0, and when you have it, go to the audio tab, and select "PC original soundtrack" from the dropdown list..

Alternatively, you can run UQM.exe with "-m pc" in it's commandline..

To be precise, there are actually three versions:
the original MOD versions;
the 3DO versions (melee theme remixed, quasispace theme rewritten, and I believe a few more tracks' samples 'upgraded');
the UQM remixes.
