Vanilla Music Begone

Do you love RimWorld, but find yourself humming the same tribal drums or space western twangs hours into a session? Vanilla Music Begone silences the vanilla random-pool music (base game, Royalty, Odyssey) and the main-menu theme while it keeps credits songs and all Anomaly/Odyssey story-sequence tracks intact. Best of all, it achieves this cleanly with **no Harmony, no C#, and no removed defs**.

Why use this?

  • Streamer Friendly: Avoid copyright strikes by ensuring only silence (or your own background audio) plays during downtime.
  • Custom Playlist Purist: If you use other mods to add new music, this ensures you only hear those new tracks, with no chance of the vanilla themes interrupting the vibe.
  • Focus: For players who prefer the ambient sounds of the wind, rain, and machinery without musical interruption.

Features:

  • Lightweight replacement method: no Harmony, no C#, and no removed defs.
  • Negligible performance impact.
  • Compatible with music mods that add their own tracks or replace the menu song (like Stellar Blade Music and Nier Series Music) — they will simply fill the void left by the vanilla music.
  • No configuration needed; just install and enable.

Recommended Mods

I think its great pairing this mod with: Note: This replaces vanilla random-pool music and the main-menu song with silent audio clips, while keeping credits songs and Anomaly/Odyssey story-sequence tracks intact. It does not affect non-music event cues (raid horns, orbital trader sounds, etc.).
