Replacement Quality Quartet music & classical pieces

When I played glFFE a couple of years ago I downloaded some high quality versions of the Quality Quartet music tracks for FFE. Since the FFED3D package only has mp3 copies of the original FM-synthesized midis, I have overwritten them with these higher quality wavetable versions that sound much better. Thought I'd share them with the FFED3D community so I have uploaded them here.I have now also uploaded proper orchestral versions of the classical music pieces here.EDIT:In my experience, FFED3D doesn't seem to play music during battles or docking, unless you actually put mp3s in the relevant custom music folders. So I recommend putting bluedan.mp3 in the the music\custom\docking folder to get that 2001: A Space Odyssey feeling whenever you dock at an orbital city! :)I think babayaga.mp3, barem.mp3 and qqrock.mp3 are well suited to battles so you could put them in the battles folder (or whatever music gets your juices flowing!)

Absolutely love The Planets. My favorite is probably Mars: Bringer of War but every one is an inspired work. Question...am kind of a newbie to this so forgive me but what does 'glFFE' stand for?

It stands of the OpenGL version of JJFFE, which I believe was the first attempt to bring FFE into a higher resolution above 640X480.

JJFFE stands for John Jordan FFE.John Jordan was one of the first people to take the original FFE code and adapt it to a directX API ( or so I understand). He basically took the DOS code and made it Windoze compatible and fixed most of the major bugs that were left in the commercial release.Pretty much every mod or update of FFE is based off of JJFFE code.
