Crispy Doom Music-Pack issue?

[Tycitron]

Pretty simple: for some reason when i put in the files i downloaded from Dukes SC55 Packs and put into the music-packs folder of Crispy/Chocolate Doom. Any game other than Doom 1 and Doom 2 wont work, (Hell Doom 2 doesn't worked sometimes anyways.) TNT music pack doesn't seem to work, nor Plutonia. I saw a similar post to mine Here but it didn't get answered. Anyway to fix this?

You need the configuration files found here: https://github.com/chocolate-doom/music-packs You may need to edit the paths in the configs depending on how all your replacement music files are organized. Put these config files in the root musicpack directory.

Yeah ive tried all that, but no music packs outside of Doom 1/2 work at all. TNT and Plutonia specifically. or if i try doing it for Sigil.

Here's how my music-pack directory is structured:

The replacement ogg files are located in the *-music folders.

 

Lines in doom1-music.cfg, doom2-music.cfg and tnt-music.cfg look like this:

<hash> = doom1-music/<name>.ogg

<hash> = doom2-music/<name>.ogg

<hash> = tnt-music/<name>.ogg

Note that if you set it up like this, you shouldn't need to do anything else for Plutonia as it just reuses Doom 1 and Doom 2 tracks.

Wow thank you! this actually works! Now im wondering if its possible to use this to get the Plutonia MIDI pack to work? or the Sigil ost. oh well, still i appreciate it!

It's definitely possible, but it'll require a little extra work. Crispy and Chocolate have a special command-line parameter -dumpsubstconfig. When used, this creates a basis music-pack config file for the loaded WAD files. So for example if you wanted to make one for Plutonia you would run:

crispy-doom -iwad <path to PLUTONIA.WAD> -dumpsubstconfig plutonia-midi-music.cfg

Then you go into the config file and set the path for each substitution. It looks like the file lists the tracks in order from MAP01 to MAP32, then the text screen music, the title screen music and intermission music.
