Merchant Archive

This is an interesting proposition that has great potential... Though i would have to be a nay sayer on this for two reasons. One, the devs have quite a bit on their list of things to fix/add right now. And second it would take an incredible amount of coding to get the music to stay unique to each vendor location (house of tent). dont get me wrong I think it would be really cool to walk into a BE shop and hear the theme music to Frankenstien playing, Gregorian chants when entering a relic shop, or the rhythmic beat of war drums when shopping at a weaponsmith vendor. I just dont see how the devs could do this in a timely and player friendly way. The idea really has infinite potential.

Would it take that much coding, do you think?

I just think of the merchant trainers in the guild halls of player cities...and how you hear the jabba the hutt music toyland music when you walk into their room.

what i mean by music is just light quiet elevator music, maybe you get a new song every management box like the shop signs

oh for sure. Dont get me wrong I think it would a great thing. I for one would like to see the devs fix the bugs/exploits in the game before they start adding all the bells and whistles to SWG. I would love to see neon flashing signs on Shops, and posted ads on city walls. I love post like this that present a fun idea for enriching the SWG experience. So please dont think that i was flaming your proposal.

woo yahhh music...that you can import would be nice...but just starwars stuff is cool too.

If they have competed programmers this should not be difficult to implement. When you get close to the emperors retreat some music start playing, when you land on lok music start playing and so on. Giving us access to this music when someone entered our houses should not be difficult to implement.
And it could be another credit sink... make it increase the maintains.

I want elevator music when you use the lifts in houses/guild halls.

I want Artisans to be able to make Stereos that played music so I can carry one on my shoulder and walk around the streets of Theed jiving.

The problem won't be adding the music; it would be keeping it unique to each tent adn house if they allow it to be per vendor. You got to think about it in a way that if they just let music play it would turn into noise pollution and be like the freaking bikes humming all the time. So if you pass a strip of tents like a lot of player cities have, that won't be fun to listen to, it would be like listening to a bunch of musically challenged group trying to play in sync. But the easiest thing to do is have the music play when you click at the vendor and try using it, whcih would be a little bit different and I haven't thought of what would be required to do that.
