I got and installed Viking Conquest DLC for Linux. I found it overpriced, but I thought that since it supports native Linux, I would support the devs.
Anyway after installing, the music doens't play (the music plays perfectly on Vanilla Warband). Digging a bit, I found that the files in Modules/Viking Conquest/Music are all in .ogg format, except battle_ambient2.wav. So I went ahead and changed the definitions on Modules/Viking Conquest/music.txt so that they cite the .ogg extension, as there they appeared as .wav
This fixed it for those existing, but I also found out that there's simply missing music files, for example there's no Modules/Viking Conquest/Music/fallen_warrior.wav or .ogg file at all!
What's going on? Any tips as to why those files are missing? If this is a problem of packaging on the linux version, can some Gog or gamedev admin put the files online to download? Otherwise I'll file for a refund, as who knows what else is missing and this isn't acceptable. I only have a Linux system, and this DLC is cited as Linux native, so if the music files are on the Windows DLC installer, please repackage the Linux DLC.
