Music Usage and Track Limits

Music files can be placed in any of the directories listed above, depending on the selected pack option:

Custom Music (Generic):

Up to 100 tracks (named custom1.ogg to custom100.ogg or custom1.wav to custom100.wav).

Custom Music+ and Custom Music++:

Up to 10 tracks per directory (named custom1.ogg to custom10.ogg or custom1.wav to custom10.wav).

File Format Requirements

All music files must be in one of the following formats:

Vorbis (.ogg)
PCM (.wav)

Note: Converting to PCM (.wav) is not recommended. Additionally, if the original audio file is in a lossy format (such as MP3), converting it to PCM (.wav) will not improve the quality and will significantly increase the file size. It's best to use Vorbis (.ogg).

Files in other formats will not be playable in the game. For file conversion, you can use:
