Got a cool project idea but nothing else? Put it in the project ideas thread instead!

Extended Hell: An alternative to PSX Doom and Doom 64 tracks

Extended Hell is a longer version of Hell's Ambiance, which the songs used are longer and likely makes the tension factor go up.
This features music by Jaxxoon R (Dark Ambient Pack on /idgames/), Kevin MacLeod and Purple Planet's royalty free tracks with the latter two modified to
give the "Extended" tone.

This replaces both Doom and Doom 2 music if using ZDoom or GZDoom, but only Doom 2 for Zandronum. (See 'Bugs' for workaround)

Known Bugs: Zandronum will not play Doom's music properly due to the lack of $musicalias support in SNDINFO. Workaround is to duplicate all tracks and rename them in a lump editor such as SLADE.
May Not Run With...: ZDaemon (Doom1 only) , probably lacks $musicalias support altogether. Doom 2 tracks should work fine but Doom1 needs workaround posted above.

Veeeery nice. Sounds like a midway between James Horner, Aubrey Hodges and Akira Yamaoka.

I have trouble telling the difference between this version and the old one, though---aside from this one seems to flow subtly but substantially better. Better looping?

I'm listening to this even outside of the game. Really good.

Are there any ways to preview this music? I'd like to try it out and see if I like it, but 300 mb is pretty steep.

I could do a playlist on Youtube for you, if someone else doesn't beat me to it. I can't now though.

Update: Seriously, I can use this on any WAD out there and it fits everytime. Love it! :wub:
