How-to Add Custom Music tracks in BA2 ...?

Hello,

In BA1, we were able to change the background music in custom scenarios by placing mp3 files in \Data\Music\
But in BA2 that does not seem to work anymore. I tried a few variants but actually I do not even see the Music directory in the main BA2 directories although it was there in BA1.

Has the brutish Russian Front music been permanently added into the game now lol?
I'm not complaining, as the mood is striking, however for some return to Normandy actions I was wondering...

Thanks,

It could be, lol. I bet that most iPad users of the game, they turn the music track off. Just a theory.

Custom music does not play on iPad. In fact, if custom music is added to a scenario, no music at all is played. Works fine on PC though.

This is definitely very useful. I'm actually not a music guy for these kind of games, but (and pardons if this is old hat to you all) I plan on replacing the battle music with ambient world war II combat sound (a distant battle) to add to the atmosphere.
