Soundtrack Menu
This mod lets you change the soundtrack in-game by using the Mod Config Menu.
You don’t need both, using both may cause issues.
IF YOU ARE USING MUSIC CALLBACK MAKE SURE YOU USE THE CORRECT VERSION
If it’s missing a requirement it will not appear in the config menu and there will be an error message in the debug console.
With this mod you can change the games music on the fly without even needing to go back to the main menu, you can pick a specific soundtrack, set it to shuffle between various soundtracks, or even pick and choose individual tracks from each soundtrack to make your own custom soundtrack.
(or totally randomize the tracks for complete chaos)
Want the classic flash music for the basement and antibirth’s downpour music for flooded caves? you can do that, you want every single boss fight to play ‘Fast Track to Browntown’? sure you can do that too, for each default track in the game you can pick a song to play instead by selecting a soundtrack and trackname.
Just open the config menu and go to ‘Set Soundtrack’.
On top of having the regular rebirth soundtrack I have added soundtracks from some of Edmunds other games, plus a couple soundtracks from AB+ modpacks.
The soundtracks included are: Rebirth, Flash Isaac, Antibirth, Super Meat Boy, The End is Nigh, Legend of Bum-bo and Genesis+.
More soundtracks can be added to the menu by compatible mods.
Each soundtrack has an option you can change that sets whether it can be used in shuffle and randomization and how often it should be used.
You can press N at any point in game to skip to the next soundtrack when in shuffle or random modes. (or custom with shuffle/random options)
The menu will include 1 soundtrack added by mods that aren’t compatible (listed as ‘Default’), but it can’t add multiple non-compatible soundtracks, they all overwrite the same files/track ids so only the most recently loaded one can be used.
In the ‘Custom’ mode you can set each individual (controllable) music track in the game to a specific soundtrack and tracktype of your choice, among the options for soundtrack are ‘Silent, ‘Random’ and ‘Shuffle’.
Each individual entry set to random will be a different soundtrack, while the ones set to shuffle will all share a single randomly chosen soundtrack, e.g. if you set both basement and shop music to shuffle you might get flash music when starting the floor and when entering a shop it would play flash shop music, but if you set both basement and shop music to random you could have a basement playing antibirth music and then you enter a shop and it plays supermeatboy music.
Both random and shuffle tracks will change every so often based on your settings, either on room change, on floor change or on starting/continuing a run.
If you want multiple different ‘custom’ soundtrack set ups, or if you want certain tracks to have a different ‘shuffle list’ than others, that can be done with a bit of lua using the
More Custom Soundtracks mod.
Thanks to Broski for showing me the music API and giving me the idea for this mod and for the Genesis+ soundtrack.
Thanks to Taz for making the music API and Piber for making the mod config menu.
Note that without Repentogon this mod can’t control the music for the title screen, the run start jingles or the pre-floor nightmare jingle. (you can still change those with a ‘default’ music mod)
If you do have REPENTOGON then soundtracks can have a LOT more tracks set, and you can use Continuous Floor Music, this can be enabled in the options section of the soundtrack menus config page, it works by playing the room music as a ‘jingle’ and silencing the regular music, so unfortunately leaving and re-entering a room will restart the rooms music and if you enter a room while a jingle is playing it will get cut off by the rooms music, but otherwise it should work as you would expect.
If you made a soundtrack mod adding compatibility is fairly easy, just follow the instructions in the discussion topic.
Check them out and add more tracks to the menu, you can also use them as examples for making/updating your own mods.
(you’d be surprised how often that solves problems with mods)
The current version is 1.267, you should see this number at the top of the debug console and at the bottom of the Metadata.xml file.
If that doesn’t work check your debug console for errors when you experience the issue.
(and include any error messages in the bug report)
If there’s no errors try disabling all non-required mods and seeing if the issue still happens, if that helps see if you can determine which mod causes it and let me know.
If you’re on Repentogon and there’s no errors and disabling other mods makes no difference you can play until the music breaks, then quit and go to DocumentsMy GamesBinding of Isaac Repentance+ and grab the log.txt file, you can either upload it somewhere or copy/paste its content into a pastebin, and send me a link.
Whatever the case please post the issue in the Bug Thread discussion while also letting me know whether you’re using Repentogon or MMC.
If you’re using StageAPI and have issues in custom floors, try going to the options tab and changing the StageAPI setting to "disable soundtrack menu in custom floors".
If you’re on Rep+ and the jingles (or room music when using continuous floor mode) are really quiet it’s probably your SFX volume setting (in Repentence jingles use music volume but in Rep+ they use sfx volume) you can either raise your sfx volume or if you’re using Repentogon you can try using the Separate Jingle Volume mod.
If you’re using Repentogon and having issues that don’t cause debug errors you can try going to the options tab, scrolling to the bottom and changing the mod version to 1.1.
You can also set it to auto toggle when stageAPI is detected if you only have issues when using stageAPI.
This is included in POTATO PACK 2.
