In the old days when jukeboxes was a thing, the entire file containing all of the songs would be located under the EVE folder on your computer.

I remembered this a few days ago, when I was up to a written exam, looking through my comp for music...
I was very satisfied.

spotify or pandora streaming options from the client would be more interesting... and since they play ads you could probably cut a deal with them ccp.

Want me to shut up? Remove content from my post,1B. Remove my content from a thread I have started 2B.

Can't believe it's actually more than two years since I last heard "Below the asteroids" and "Miner stories" within the game. Straight

Why CCP would take something out of the game that wasn't broken is beyond me.. It isn't like it has to be utilized.

Even a jukebox with no more features than the original would be A -OK for me.

This post brought to you by CCP's alpha forum alt initiative. Playing the eve forums has never come cheaper.

I'm a little sad every time this thread shows back up since CCP sees no need to bring this back

It was broken from a code stand-point.

What I don't get is why it's so difficult to make a new one. It was a very simple tool, and we have been given many more complex things with less hullabaloo.

IIRC it is mostly because it could play any song you had saved to the folder on your PC but even if they gave it to us without that function it would be nice

Though, that function would be extremely nice to have, and have working.
Would also be cool if they supported Eve Radio with it, and broadcasted them through the Jukebox...

Don't forget New Eden Radio!

I'd love to have just the ability to select default tracks, but I really don't think it would be difficult to code it to play the game's default tracks as audio files from a folder in the game directory. That's literally all that is needed to allow players to edit the folder and play their own music.

As someone who wasn't around before the removal of the jukebox I can say with out a doubt that I do not play any audio minus alerts for damage and combat and run Pandora or YouTube in the background for music and other things. On top of that the fact that the game's music is only able to be played in triggers that only happen in pve is the biggest reason I do not care about the audio of the game as pve is something I just do not do.

I don't care about other music, but at least let us select the eve music tracks. I live in a wormhole, and the angry cello man scraping away just means, music is now always off.
EVE has such great music, let everyone have the opportunity to hear it while playing.

There is one EvE. Many people. Many lifestyles. WE are EvE

Yes, whoever came up with the tracklists was clearly a highbear.
