WH3 introduced a new combat music system where different tracks play depending on the balance of power. “Negative” ones play when the balance of power is in your favor but you lose enough that it goes back to neutral (going too far past neutral will start playing the enemy faction’s music) and “positive” ones vice-versa
@@peacheslamb3546 Wow, it's amazing to me that you figured that out. Is there a way to learn that by looking at the code, or did you just figure it out after hours of pouring over the music?
@@peacheslamb3546 Of course, there is a fact that these songs were almost inaudible during the war... The music was clear when the game came out, even when we zoomed in on the units, the music played in different tones, but they changed it later. They did the same in Troy. :/
@@peacheslamb3546 true. there is even a losing variant of your theme if you play against the same faction as yourself. that way it doesn't shift to another faction theme and instead give you a much more "desperate" version. it starts when the balance is shifted from either you winning or neutral to you having next to no balance left. they're honestly great.
