Nostalgia Music Pack

[KingKoopa300]

Created a music object pack with RCT3, Starcraft, Mario64, and Zelda64. I figured we all chasing nostalgia playing RCT2 why not add more music from games that take you back.

WARNING: Music objects take a long time to load first time opening openrct2, just be patient and next load is normal 

Create your own songs for openrct2 at : https://goes.rctspace.com/

You can adds songs and reupload them on forums, reddit, or anywhere else, there is not enough music packs for openrct2

I can't see your music in the game. What am I doing wrong?

After you download the files, extract it to folder: OpenRCT2/Object and you are set.

To be able to use it, you need to open Cheat menu, click on Objects Selection, "advanced filter", Musics tab, and check all song files on the list

@Forage Thank you! I needed to restart the game a couple of times until the new songs appeared in the list.👍

Got a question actually related to this - found out about that music object creator through here, and I'm curious about the image preview.

Yeah I know, image preview is a minor thing - I'm just curious what settings I'm doing wrong here.

The preview image only ever shows up with a couple of pixels appearing - I've tried some different settings within Photoshop when rendering, like reducing down to Windows standard 256 colors in case it was just too new, turning off dithering, and even dropping to 64 colors - but still nothing. Any ideas on how to fix that?

The images have to be PNGs with RCT's color palette. The easiest way to get it is to take a screenshot in ORCT2 using the option in the Disk menu, then find it in the custom content / screenshots folder. In Photoshop, go to Image Menu > Mode. You'll see it is Indexed Color. Click the Color Table... menu item, and you can save the palette as an .act file. 

After creating your custom art, make sure you switch it from RGB to Indexed Color, and choose your RCT palette. Save as PNG, and you should be good to go.
