Replace Vanilla soundtrack with songs from the Armored core 6 disk 3 and older gen games. Tracks were carefully selected to fit in their respective scenarios. Thanks to DarkFlameBlazer for letting me use some of the tracks that he included in his Mod RE-AC6 Gameplay OverHaul (Which I highly recommend) and for Sharing his framework AC6 BGM REPLACEMENT PACKET that made my mod possible.

Version 1.1 is now available. If you are updating from 1.0 simply grab the optional ''Rusty's theme fix'' , Copy the sd folder from the update and paste it on your game folder (on the ac6 remake folder if you use RE-AC6 Gameplay OverHaul ) replace 1 file.

Mod Showcase:

How to Install:



1. Download UXM selective Unpacker and install it.
 
2. Run UXM and click "Browse" then find the .exe of Armored core 6. If you don't know where your AC6.exe is located just go to steam> right click Armored core 6> Manage> local files> Click on the upper middle part of the window and copy the route, then paste it on the UXM window. Then click Unpack and wait.

3. Once UXM finishes go to your Main AC6 folder. If you don't know where your AC6.exe is located just go to steam> right click Armored core 6> Manage> local files. Find the sd folder and make a back up, don't skip this step. If you don't like one of the songs that I included in the mod you will need the backup to change that song.
     3.1. If you use the Mod RE-AC6 Gameplay OverHaul then you can ignore step 3 to instead: Go to your main AC6 folder> open the AC6remake   folder> Make a backup of the sd folder in here.

4. Now you can copy the sd folder included in my mod and paste it on your main AC6 folder, it will ask you if you want to replace the files, say yes and replace everything.
     4.1. If you use the Mod RE-AC6 Gameplay OverHaul then you you have to copy the sd folder from my mod and replace the sd folder located within the AC6remake folder.

5. After doing a backup open the sd folder from the main AC6 folder and find a file named sd.bdt, rename it to sd123.bdt to make it invalid. 


Q&A:

Q: Can I get banned for unpacking the game and using this mod?
A: I played in official PVP servers with this and nothing happened to me. The mod only replaces some files and isn't adding anything to the game.

Q: I don't like some of the songs, how do I revert them back to vanilla?
A: I included a sheet that was created by DarkFlameBlazer use it to see the ID of every soundtrack. Then copy that File from the back up that you made and replace the song in the sd folder from the game with the original from the back up.

Q: I Followed the guide but the mod doesn't work, why?
A: Make sure that you renamed the file sd.bdt to sd123.bdt in the sd folder, you also have to do this if you use RE-AC6 Gameplay OverHaul . If you are using RE-AC6 Gameplay OverHaul then make sure that you are replacing the sd folder located within the AC6 remake folder and executing the game with the launcher for this mod. 

Q: How do I uninstall the mod?
A: Delete the sd folder from your game folder. Then move the sd folder from your back up to your game.

Q: Can I replace songs with my own songs?
A: Yes, follow this guide AC6 BGM REPLACEMENT PACKET

Compatibility:

Should be compatible with any mod that is not replacing the same .wem files located in the sd folder which means that this will be compatible with most mods.

Also incompatible with Armored core 6 coop . Again, nothing bad will happen but you won't get the replacement if you run the game from the coop launcher.

Compatible with Armored core 6 coop . 

Compatible with AC6 Gameplay OverHaul  just follow the steps and make sure to install my mod later so it can replace the files from the overhaul.

Haven't tested yet but it seems that if you are using AC6 Gameplay OverHaul and Armored core 6 coop patched together you will only hear the vanilla soundtrack.

Known issues:

Some songs may sound a little bit low. It took my a while to find the right volume. I fixed most of them but it is possible that 1 or 2 are still low. If you are having trouble listening the music try lowering you sound effects 1-3 points below music.

Rusty Steel haze theme starts a little bit weird. This is a sacrifice I was willing to make as it sound perfect for the rest of the song. Fixed with 1.1

List of songs:




None of the songs in this mod was created by me, I just added them into the game.

Big thanks to DarkFlameBlazer for sharing the framework that I used to make this and for letting me use some of the songs that he added to his RE-AC6 Gameplay OverHaul
