Ignore that last comment, my dumbass didn't know that the drag races and the prologue was broken for this, rest works now

Clearly this mod maker never tested his mod in the first place, judging how no matter what I do, the audio either double plays, restarts after a few seconds or just non stop plays even if you pause. I disabled interactive music in menu and disabled/enabled EA Trax but it didn't help either way, kinda lame for my expectations.

cool mod but it plays songs in races that i set to only play in the menus. is there a fix?

Heads up: Make your playlists with foobar and for my fellow audiophiles out there, convert your flac or wav to 320kbps for safe compatibility. The game is prone to crashing if it attempts to read an audio file over 20mb.
