Important Update: Changes to the Game’s Music



Hey everyone,

I wanted to take a moment to share an important update regarding Eternum’s soundtrack. Due to a licensing and guidelines issue with a music platform, we’ve had to remove all of its content from the game. Unfortunately, this means that a few of the tracks you’ve come to love will no longer be present.

However, thanks to the incredible effort of several community members, we’ve replaced those songs with other free alternatives and AI-generated pieces to try to maintain the game’s atmosphere. This wasn’t a choice we made willingly, but a necessary action to ensure the project can continue without complications.

Keep in mind that the new version 0.8.6 doesn't include any new content—the only change is the updated sound.

Resolving this issue temporarily paused development, but we’re now back on track and moving forward with 0.9 as planned.

I truly appreciate your understanding and support through this. I’m sorry for the inconvenience, but I hope you’ll continue to enjoy Eternum as we keep improving it.



Sincerely,

Caribdis

Well this just fucking sucks! Any idea which songs we are talking about?
Also, calling all modders, please restore the original music please!

So current walkaround is to keep the old version (0.8.5) and simply play new chapters on the new copy (0.9 and so on). Saves are universal so there shouldn't be an issue to play first eight chapters in one version and then switch to another and load the same save.

It sucks howvere that Cari won;t be able to use these songs in the future scenes, as he had a manner of doing that with great timing.

Royalty Free Music TOS prevents the usage of any track for anything pornographic (which unfortunately AVNs fall under). The only reason Cari got away with it for this long was because the game was flying under the radar compared to the AVNs in Steam. However, considering that the game continues to become increasingly popular and with more fans alerting Royalty Free Music artists about the game through mentions in the YT comments, it was only a matter of time until the CnD letter showed up.

Bullshit as always. So how it can be replaced?

AI-made music (i.e. Cosmic Dreams track used during the beginning of the Andromeda event), commissioned pieces from indie artists (i.e. Good Friends track used for the Annie penetration scene), and tracks from sites that don't have strict ToS usage I suppose.

While I do understand that this sucks in a way, I sincerely hope the song selection will be better for sex scenes. Without lyrics at the very least

"No one knows" Noooooo!
Damn it, that was so good, it gave such a misterious air to 0.1V .

51?? The Stalingrad of Eternum...


We can only cross our fingers for a mod that fix that someday.
But in the meantime, time to store a backup of 0.8V...

Kinda easy to grab all the songs from the old files though. Although I understand that not everyone got a 16to HDD to keep all the old versions of their favorite VNs (or want to make the necessary changes themselves). I still have all Eternum versions back to v0.3 personnally (when I started playing it) and ain't no way I'm replaying Eternum without the songs we got used to :HideThePain:

I do hope that someone better and less lazy than me do the work for the future versions still :whistle:
