There are walkmans in the game, but they don't do anything, do they?

This might sound a little crazy, but what if we had a folder in the JA2 Data1.13 directory that has walkman tunes. Inside it, we could place any .mp3 file.

If you have the walkman, you can put it in your hand, activate it, and then it would select randomly one of the files in the that .mp3 folder and play it, taking over the usual game music. Once the .mp3 is finished, the game goes back to its normal music. If you want to cancel the playback early, just activate the walkman in your hand again.

If another merc uses a walkman while a song is already playing, the new song takes over.

Okay. It sounds nuts, but I wouldn't mind being able to storm Deidranna's palace with my merc listening to Ride of the Valkyries. Smile

Yeah, okay. It's a stupid idea. I get it. I just had to let it out, you know?

Play a short track of his favourite song when the merc wears walkman for the first time, or replace some of the battlesounds/merc ok's.

@all: what is the Flo's favourite song?

Wow. Looks like you've given this suggestion more thought than I have. Smile

Let's see. What would be Fox's tune? 'Milkshake' by Kelis.

Trevor Colby's might just be 'I am Australian' by The Seekers.

Ice Williams? Don't say 'Ice Ice Baby' by Vanilla Ice... no...

I've always thought of Flo as Les Nigresse Vertes music lover.

No wait... she's got to be a fan of Mylene Farmer. Yup. That's perfect for Flo in my opinion.
