Try searching for ".mp3" or other music file suffixes on your CD drive, to get a list of all music files on the CD. If none of these are the one you're looking for, or you've already tried this, the music you're looking for must be in one of the .cab files (compressed file archives which extract to form the game directory). If so, I personally don't know any way of getting to it, although there may be tools on the internet which allow you to access the contents of .cab files.

There is a download available of the Pharaoh music which I believe includes some mp3's that are in a different format in the game, hopefully it has what you want. You can get them from ftp://ftp.vugames.com/pub/sierra/pharaoh/other/

Look for the 'Pharaoh\Audio\Music' directory and the file you are looking for is 'Setup.mp3'.

At least I think it is.

Oops,

My mistake. The file name is 'Pharaoh-install.wav' and I believe that it is created in your 'temp' directory during the installation of the game. It doesn't exist on the CD as a seperate file and if you delete the temporary files it goes with them.

Thank you! I found it now, under the name install.wav, in the temp folder.

I throught it was the setup.mp3 too, but it isn't. That is the music that is played with the main menu. A bit confusing.

The setup music playing during the install of Pharaoh is an excerpt from the file "Khepera.mp3"

Ever played Children of the Nile? If you like Egyptian music, that has some good ones. Craftsman's Song is brilliant!

Hello.

I know this topic is down now for some years, but...
I installed Pharaoh again today (geeez... almost been 10years now), and I heard that music again.

The game installation music.

As you guys said, I browsed to my Temps files, but no way to find a "Pharaoh-install.wav" or a "install.wav".

How does it come? Should I try to install my game again?

Or if someone has it, can he send it to me..?

Thanks a lot.

Hi fevy, welcome to Pharaoh Heaven

If such a file existed, noone will probably send it to you, because it might be played in a location that only the developers can see. Don't bother calling again, as no-body has the file. Try contacting Sierra Impressions and see if they can let you have the file.

EDIT: to clarify things from joshofet's reply to my message: Do not solicitate for files or link to files on the net. This is a breach of forum rules and might get you a ban or a warning!!!

Sierra is unlikely to provide much support for this game anymore. It is a bit late, but if Fevy still checks this forum, he or she had best take this question to the technical forum or the game help forum for Pharaoh. Those are more likely places to find help.

Note that asking for files is a violation of the code of conduct for this forum. If the files cannot be found on the PC, it might be an idea to search the CD.

josh, unfortunately Fevy registered 2 months ago and he/she hasn't came back yet. Maybe he/she didn't like the site much (I'm not saying I hate it) but I think that Fevy may no longer come back. We'll wait and see.

This is not really a good way of welcoming people Speysider. Use of only uppercase is coming down very hard on them. You are not a moderator so better not take such a strong standing. I suggest you remove the additional editing to your post above, which I missed since it does not appear as new in the forum survey, and focus on just helping people in any new posts you make on this forum.

I was referring to your post #8.

Could a mod please remove post #10 or replace the text below with what was there beforehand?

Re the Pharaoh installation music. Try check the Temp folder during installation of the game.

Thanks PCD, I'm giving up on Speysider. My efforts are only adding to the confusion, sorry about that.
