I've purchased Dark Reign + Expansion Set some weeks ago here at GOG and today I reached the first mission of the addon Rise of the Shadowhand. I was quite stunned to see - no, to "hear" that there is no Rlse of the Shadowhand soundtrack in the current GOG version of the game.

So I decided to add the soundtrack by myself.

INSTRUCTIONS
1. You can download it from my webspace.
2. Then unzip the ogg files in an newly created folder named "music_exp" into your Dark Reign directory.
3. Then simply rename the original folder "music" into "music_temp" or whatever name you want.
4. Finally rename your new folder called "music_exp" into "music"...

Now you will hear only the music from the official expansion set Rise of the Shadowhand.
I can't remember how Dark Reign handled the music queue originally, so this is a simple way to hear the music that belongs to RotS.

For your information:
(Dark Reign: The Future of War music list)
Track 02
Track 03
Track 04
Track 05
Track 06
Track 07
Track 08
Track 09
Track 10 (this is Track 02)
Track 11 (this is Track 02)

I used that list that comes with the current GOG version and simply replace the tracks from Future of War with Rise of the Shadowhand.

I'm interested in grabbing that soundtrack! Never got to experience the expansion back in the day, would love to get the full experience!!

Thanks I'm considering buying this now. Have you contacted support? They don't read the forums and might be interested to add it to make the game complete.

Hello,

First thanks for trying to bring us the soundtrack.

I would be fairly interested in obtaining it in single tracks (not those youtube 30+min videos). Could you please try to repost the link? It will probably work if you include a typo or just set it in quotes.

Thanks in advance

I'm interested as well. I have no idea where I buried my original discs and I'd like to get the soundtracks for both game and addon again.

Soo... where is it?

Or was that the whole idea; just to tease us?

To be honest, I had already forgotten this posting. ^^'

Not much has changed, since my last visit here. :(
As I try to post the link, a sentence in orange letters occurs "You cannot post any links at the moment" (WTF?!)

Okay, so I followed the advice of Agent256 and used some low level magic to make the link available.

P.S. See above for installation instructions. Enjoy!

do you happen to have a scan of the english and german manual for Shadowhand?

Thanks!!!

Thanks a lot for your post.

But the question is - can I hear original OST while playing original campaign, and expansion OST while playing expansion campaign? :) As I can guess, having music folders replaced and renamed as you recommend, I should get only expansion OST as a result, isnt' it?

Thank you I really appreciate this. I'm collecting EVERYTHING Dark Reign in order to preserve the game. GoG isn't doing a good job.
