Request for item/system implementation.

[Vidu]

But it is not hard to let special music play when you mount up? I have several ex mounts and savage mounts and they all have their own unique song and they play just fine whenever I mount up.

I wonder why an MP3 player would be hard but having hundreds of mounts with all their own unique music is not.

Its my understanding that thats "hard" aswell - as in: each mount can play excatly one different piece of music and thats it. Thats why they asked on occassion if we'd like to get the music on certain mounts (Sephirot-bird comes to mind) changed: Because its impossible to play more than one piece of music.
So what seems to be possible is to change the music to one specific song when you mount up and that song is tied to that specific mount - picking and choosing is not possible with the current system.

Music/Sound seems to be pretty difficult within the code of the game - I dont know if you remember this but when they introduced the Orchestrion at first the music it played came from that item instead of replacing the normal background music in the house. So you could only hear the song you wanted to if you stood next to the Orchestrion - it took them a while to figure out how to replace the background music in the house for good.

Mounts seem to have one "music-slot" and that can only be set to one song. Its not the same as replacing background music with anything you like.

...though at the end of the day its probably neither you or me who can tell how hard such a feature would actually be to implement - all I know is that the devs adressed this issue directly (something that doesnt happen with everything, so I suppose this is something they noticed as important to their playerbase) and said that it cant be done - at least not easly. And honestly, if it would be that easy... dont you think they'd already done it? If they could use the same solution they're using for the mount music or the orchestrion, dont you think they'd implemented this, knowing that they are aware of this wish?
