First... did you know that you can customize your game music? it's easy:

1)If you can see and change file extentions, skip this step
(note: names might be inaccurate, im translating them from spanish)

a)Go to Tools>Folder Options>See (2nd Tag)
b)Uncheck "hide file extentions ..."
go there

then there

and you must have that UNCHECKED (in english it should be something like
"hide file extentions ...")


2)Pick the music you like for the game

3)Go to your Navy Field game folder and then go to Sound folder

4)Make a copy for all the .cxf files there (safety purposes) and paste them in another
folder (i suggest making a folder in Sound called "Default")

5)Move the music you picked for the game to Sound folder

6)Change the name and extention to match the part of the game you want them into:

Battle.cxf=in battle music
Winning.cxf=after sunk, if you're winning
Losing.cxf=after sunk, if tou're losing
GMN.cxf=KM harbour
UK.cxf=RN harbour
US.cxf=USN harbour
JPN.cxf=IJN harbour
BM002: Battle Channel music (When you're searching for a game.)
BM003: Unknown
BM004.cxf=exp screen when lost
BM005: Game launch music (launches on EULA screen)
BM007: Neutral Shipyard music
BM008.cxf=exp screen when won


SAMPLES

if you already see the file extension, just write it, if you dont, follow the first step ^^

What about the music in Hearts of Iron 2 by Andreas Waldetoft? Fits well in NF.

About file extension change, do I just have to type it in with the name?

To complete Gangrel's list a bit:

BM002: Battle Channel music (When you're searching for a game.)
BM003: Unknown
BM004: Loss on Experience Screen (as Gangrel said)
BM005: Game launch music (launches on EULA screen)
BM007: Neutral Shipyard music

The rest are pretty self-explanatory.

yah, it might be a bad idea to put music that inspires you to rush and kill everything in
your path... even more if you (like me) have to fight your instincts to do so :P

I figured this out myself and took the risk a little after figuring out how view the ship
yards at night.
Since I have only one nation (UK), I left the harbor theme as it is. Kinda like it. During
battles however, I put on "Die Valkyrie". I know it's german, but it's great battle
music. It'll either make you play great, or inspire you to commit some brazen act that
gets you sunk :P
