How to: PB2 Song Tool (Updated)

Postby ditzy » 4 September 2018, 03:09

With the new update, we're now able to add custom songs to our maps. It can be a bit confusing at first, so I'll break it down below.

To use the new tool, you first need to go to a website with downloadable music(The only site that seems to work at the moment is http://freemusicarchive.org/, so Soundcloud or Spotify won't work) and select a song. Go to the song's page and select the URL of that page.

(You can get the song page by clicking on the song title)

You can then paste the URL into the URL parameter in the new song object, and play the song from a trigger using the Play song 'A' action.



And last of all, don't forget to credit the song and the creator!

Yep. Thanks for reminding me to update this.

So far, only freemusicarchive can be used, since it's the only one Eric programmed to put in right now. Sorry to burst the bubble so quickly.

It's 2019 now, so is that website still the only one that works for the song tool?
