Hello, MIDI files for maps musics in-game, is support by engine ?

I think it´s a good idea to put the space in control, ogg files reach more or less 5, 6 MB, and midi files only some kb.

We are more than willing to sacrifice the space for the quality.

Especially since music is a separate download.

Also note that not every system uses the same sound bank to render midi tracks. This means that the same midi track can sound completely different on two different systems.

Would it be possible to include our own sound bank?

Once, not for every release.
Which is pretty much exactly what we're doing anyway. Just that some of our composers tend to have a bit more complex of a sequencing standard at use than MIDI.
