I have: Restarted the client after adding music to the userMusic folder in the new res folder Enabled the custom music option Converted the music into mp3 at 128kbps Looked up other threads on this issue; one of them told me to install this? https://www.free-codecs.com/k_lite_mega_codec_pack_download.htm?f=k_lite_mega_codec_pack_download What's this? Apparently this issue was patched a while ago I'll send a ticket if it's not resolvable here Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Go find your WOWS install and then the UserMusic directory.. Mine is C:\Games\World_of_Warships_NA\bin\2832630\res\userMusic When I went there to check, I found 4 files already...the podcast files (I forget what they were named). Just delete or rename them, then your Music should play. Edited September 21, 2020 by Slammer58 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

0 King_of_Avercland Members 4 posts Report post #7 Posted September 22, 2020 You can delete the podcast audio files in that folder. It won't break the game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
