Scum? I don't think so. "Master" is more like it.

Hello again, friend hunams. I was looking through various threads and found the one aboue Mark Vera's updated "Electro Blast" remix of the Hyperspace theme. It mentioned a few ideas about possibly adding some code to make UQM load up a different hyperspace theme/remix each time you enter hyperspace (different meaning, of course, a different one than the last one loaded, and not in any specific order, chosen from a list of remixes). Now, I may have presented this idea in the past, but since there are so many different remixes of the battle theme (and ones that aren't even remixes of it, but entirely new pieces of musical orgasm), that there should be a similar algorithm in place whenever you are drawn into combat. And, of course, the race specific battle theme(s?) such as the Kohr-Ah battle theme and any future race specific themes would be played exclusively to those races, though they could alternate through other normal battle remixes. Just an idea.

Dunno if you might agree or not but whenever I play Orz, I always like to play the Harkonnen Tribute to Evil track from Emperor Battle for Dune. http://dune2k.com/Download/484

I think it fits with the whole marine thing, but that's just my opinion Tongue

I'm pretty sure that if the Precursors have alternate battle themes in a remix pack, UQM will quickly gain the ability to use them.
