How do I choose what music I want to play in my map

[White Wolf]

Using DOOM metal vol4

[Nevander]

Depends on what port you are targeting, but since you said Doom metal vol4, that implies the ZDoom family of ports.

 

In that case, you can either:

 

a) Use MAPINFO to specify the individual tracks per map directly

 

b) Rename the tracks to match the slots you want (i.e. rename D_RUNNIN to D_COUNTD and vice-versa)

 

There's more ways I'm sure but I'd go with option b. It's the simplest way and can be done within the OS file structure.

@White Wolf You go into slade, open your wad file and use the command ctrl shift i and select your music file, either midi or mp3.

 

make sure you're music file is named D_runnin and save the wad file.

 

Here is the program Slade its an editing tool for doom wads: http://slade.mancubus.net/index.php?page=downloads

 

Heres a list of the doom 2 music names for custom music: http://doom.wikia.com/wiki/Doom_II_music

Make one or more clusters with enter text and/or exit text:

Yes. The Wiki page I linked should tell you all about it. The Wiki is how I learn how to do stuff.

You defined the cluster, but you didn't put the map in the cluster. You do that in the map definition, which is also in MAPINFO.
