Music
The music is provided in OGG and MIDI formats. The OGG variant is prefered
because the render is the same for all platforms. For purist fanboys, it's
possible to enforce the MIDI variant by starting the game with the
--restore-midi command line argument. Note that in this case, it's possible
to lose some instruments, it depends of you system.
If you want, you can overload all musics with yours by providing OGG or MIDI music files in your user directory.
