📋 About This Mod
I produced new arrangements of "Desert Wasteland" for the Corel Desert region's background music. This includes two separate field edits for both phases of field background music as well as a battle edit. This does not affect the arrangement of Desert Wasteland that plays in the dustbowl during the main quest. After the main quest section of the dust bowl is complete, the Corel Desert region's background music takes over, so this mod will take effect inside the dustbowl town then too.

I would love to read your appreciation or criticism on the posts tab. Please remember this is only a mod, and you don't have to install it if you don't like it. My re-scores aren't intended to disparage the replaced music or composers. I sometimes replace music I don't like, and I also sometimes just want a fresh alternative to something I do like, just like any other mod.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Decent download count (5,720) shows some interest

For Final Fantasy VII fans who want to freshen up Corel Desert's soundtrack without overhauling the whole game. If you're after broader audio changes or gameplay tweaks, this isn't for you.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure to back up the original music files before replacing them, so you can revert if you don't like the new arrangement.
- If you're using a mod manager, check if it supports audio mods and use its preview feature to listen before installing.
- Since this mod only affects Corel Desert, you can safely combine it with other music mods for different areas.
