Hello, im listening to this when i play valheim ' https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yLjxEC-oMvY ' maybe you can find something interesting for your mod, thanks for your work :)
When installing the mod with Vortex, it doesn't write the file to: "SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Valheim\BepInEx\plugins\CustomAudio\Music"
Instead, it creates the Music Folder within the Plugins folder itself, writing to: "SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Valheim\BepInEx\plugins\Music"
Is this intentional? I would assume the new music would not appear in the game as a result of installing through the Vortex method, as the Music folder is not populating itself under the "plugins\CustomAudio" folder and is just being generated under "plugins" itself. I originally had the Alternative Music Pack mod installed prior so that I can enjoy the music from both mods, however even with a fresh install without the Alternative Music Pack installed, Vortex still doesn't write the mod into the CustomAudio folder. No biggie as a manual installation is always an option, but just pointing out this observation in case it needs rectification :)
Yep, that's definitely not the correct path... I'll be honest with you, I never used Vortex, so I just assumed it'll "Just work" if I leave it as an option, didn't work out as you can see. Kinda makes sense though, since this isn't an addon by itself. I'll just remove the button so it doesn't cause any further confusion.
Erutan. The most underrated musical genius. If you like Adrian (also a genius) there is certainly songs by Erutan you will think should be in this track. I especially recommend Court of Leaves, because there is no vocals.
Must say, the chosen piece of music are very nice. Only I haven't heard it in the game itself yet, even though I copied the music directory to Custom Audio. Is there any way to force this?
What's unusual, it should work by just plug-and-playing the files in.
My suggestions would be at first to try and re-launch the game again to see if it works or not, it has to do with the way mods generate their folders and config files on their first time run.
If that fails, check if the mods are installed correctly (BepinEx especially) with all the dependencies and are up to date, I update the backend mods like BepinEx or Jotun Library basically as soon as I notice them, it even fixed some mods that are a couple of patches old for me.
And the last thing I can think of would be mod conflicts, can't remember any other audio mods that could possibly cause that, but if you have any then I'd suggest to try removing them one by one and launch the game without, to see if it changes anything.
Im actually not playing Valheim anymore until just recently came back but starting to learn modding but time to time pay visit to see whats new.... and out of all new mods & ideas, this music pack actually got me really appreciate the "Art" side of it. Listen to it just playing in my MP3 player all day, some tunes are very inspiring, some tunes gave quite EPIC vibe, some even almost got me in tear. All in all Im not a big fan of celtics, but this music pack made me a new fan. Deeply appreciate the music pack, not for the purpose of adding to valheim mods, but just the sheer appreciation of music in general. A big cheers from me.
This music pack is brilliantly cheerful, inspiring, epic, mood pumping, battle spirit driven, even can use for sorrow or sadness, a brilliant music list for multi-purpose not just gaming but movies as well. I vote this music pack especially in all music mods in valheim here, hands down my new #1 music pack so far. ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL.... even thou u may not be the creator of these music, but having the right "taste" and know how to use it gets u a +1 from me as well.
I really appreciate the post, Adrian's work was among my top favourites ever since I discovered it around 2012 watching a Skyrim mod video somewhere, funny how this goes, I had zero clue how to mod games back then.
