Necropolis Theme = Broken Hills Theme?

[Guest]

I haven't played Fallout 1 or 2 for a while but have converted every song from both games to mp3. I've got all of the files properly named and tagged, but I've forgotten whether the Necropolis theme is the same as the theme played when you're in Broken Hills. Any assistance would be appreciated.

If you want to burn the tracks to a CD, the tracks fit perfectly on an 80 minute CD if you use only the 24 tracks by Mark Morgan. There's no more room for Maybe, A Kiss to Build a Dream On, Wind 1, Wind 2, Alarm 1, and/or Alarm 2. Great ambient music.

No.

Necropolis = S.A.D.

Broken hills = Military Base (fallout1), Vault 13 (Fallout2), and also the background music to the narrator's speech in the intro for fallout 1.

BTW: Why didn't Fallout2's vault 13 have the same music as fallout 1's vault 13? That would have been a very nice touch.

I just remembered I have all the map data specs on my hard drive. Here are the real music -> map settings:

>Necropolis = S.A.D.

I found out that the SAD uses the Military Base/Broken Hills/Vats music. Navarro and Vault 15 use the Necropolis theme. I would've expected Gecko to use it.. all well.

NCR's music should've also been the Shady Sands music.

How did you convert the files to MP3? That would be so cool.

Yes. It's actually the music from The Hub (Very cool music BTW) but then again NCR was a very different place from Shady Sands.

I have an ACM to WAV converter, so I converted them to wave files, upped their sample rate to 44100 (for higher quality mp3 compression and to burn to a CD) and then encoded them using the LAME encoder for maxiumum quality.
