Music for the End of the World [True Music]

Description
Note: The current version's loot spawning system is a little buggy and isn't always functional. We are currently working on a huge update, Music for the End of the World 2.0, which will hopefully fix these issues. Hang in there!

Note 2: This mod is about 4 gigabytes. If that's too much for you, consider a smaller pack. It's a lot of music files, it's going to take up space on your computer and there is no smaller I can make it.

Music for the End of the World seeks to be the ultimate lore-friendly True Music pack for those who just can't get enough tunes in their Apocalypse.
This monolithic True Music mod is the result of dozens and dozens of hours of work and tons of helpful requests from the Project Zomboid community. It's based on Tsar's True Music framework, and was originally titled "Rose Music", and produced for the enjoyment of the Ravenrose RP community. However, the mod far outgrew its original scope, leading to a public release.

This True Music mod adds 1,000 tracks, listed here.[pastebin.com]
This mod's features include:
- 725 completely lore-friendly tracks from the year 1993 or before.
- 250 more tracks in the 'Extended' expansion which are mostly from between the years of 1994 and 2000, but with a few between 2001 and 2004.
- 25...? tracks in the Silent Hill expansion, which adds a collection of songs from across the series... and some extremely rare extras from another 2008 horror game that drop from zombies (though this can be toggled).

- Vinyl covers for every single track from the Main and Extended branches.
- Three different kinds of rare 'loot boxes' to find that contain either 50, 25, or 10 of their respective music item.
- A completely unique loot distribution system designed to account for the vast amount of items added by this mod.

- Total customization. You can customize:
-- Whether or not Cassettes or Vinyls spawn
-- How many, and how frequently, they spawn
-- Whether cassettes can drop from zombies, and how frequently they do
-- The weight of all cassettes, vinyls, and the Boombox
-- The rate at which Boomboxes consume batteries
-- Whether or not 'loot boxes' can spawn, how many items they give, and how often they spawn

All of the mods in this pack are optional except for Music for the End of the World: Core or MusicfortheEndOP which is required for any of the packs to function. It contains no music itself, only code handling loot distribution, sandbox settings and the 'loot boxes'.

Lea, myself, did most of the creative legwork behind the mod, as well as all of the grunt work collecting, converting, and implementing songs, writing some portions of code, and generally 'designing' the mod. If you have questions or need to get in contact about the mod, I am the one to contact.
Albion wrote a great majority of the unique code that gives MFTEOTW its many powerful features, particularly the loot distribution system and item boxes. Check out her workshop page here.
Alphadin, my friend who wrote a bunch of regex for me that made updates much less time-consuming at the scale we're working at.
Corvo, the person who got me into making this mod in the first place and who gave me a tremendous RP experience on Ravenrose RP.
Tsar himself, for making True Music so easy to use and work with.

If you enjoy this mod, consider liking and favoriting it. Thank you!

Also, we have a nice bit of news: The script manager is coming along well. No two ways about it, we've taken two more months than projected and counting, but trust us, it's going to kick ASS.

A major upside to the rewrite is that radio stations will now be ad hoc. You can edit them without restarting your world or server, and clients don't have to download a thing from the server. Everything is host-side and realtime!

This is especially good news for servers, where we love the idea of server owners using the dialogue system to provide in-game news and info. This way, you can change your track-listing and dialogue in minutes without forcing players to restart or download anything!

I really like this idea! ty for the reply

@cutiebabysparkles Hi there! You should know that when Music for the End 2.0 comes out, it will include a system that allows our entire loot system to work with all True Music mods. That way, if someone has both our mods installed, our loot system will apply to your mod, including your tracks in the loot-boxes, in zombie drops, and smoothing out drop rates in general.

It also means that you will be able to include your own items in our Easter Egg drop pool, among other things!

hiii id like to if it would be possible to only have the hoard boxes items or something for my music mod im making on my server or to at least have my own music added to your hoard boxes when having both mods

Hey folks, not much news, but I just want to post and assure folks that we're still hard at work! Rewriting that major system is taking a bit longer than expected, but we really want to get this right so that the mod is as usable as possible from day 1.

Plus, every day that the code things take longer, I'm given more time to refine the tracklisting for the upcoming Encore expansion. SO many bangers. We're up to 200 songs in the Main and Extended packs, 250 in the Home Labelled pack which I've been sharpening constantly and replacing songs with songs I'm more passionate about, and a ton of really fun easter egg tracks.

MFTEOTW 2.0 will be WAY worth the wait, trust me!

okay, i have no idea what happened within the past week or so but i was playing on my b41 save, everything works fine, went to load it up yesterday and every cassette/vinyl had a ? as the icon, thought this was a weird corruption bug, reinstalled mods, didnt help

proceeded to open a cassette horde, gave me an error and didnt drop any cassettes, thought my save was ruined so i started a new save to test, same things happened but now there was an error every second about loot spawns

eventually after so much troubleshooting i found out that the spawn errors were caused by true music radio, but from what i can tell the icon error is from ANY mod that adds icons

this definitely isnt on your guys end since this mod hasnt been updated in a while, it isnt on true music radio either, as that hasnt been updated in months...

i dont know what the hell happened and am posting this here to see if anyone else can verify im not crazy :spiffo:

I think quite hard about the track-lists and I've been having a lot of fun curating them, honestly. Right now, the track-list on the pastebin is way way behind where I'm at, and I've got a really well formatted, neat and tidy looking track-list that will go into a topic on the discussion forum for the upload when the update drops.

I'm really excited about Home Labelled in particular. It's my music taste rather than a general vertical slice of music, but I'm getting it refined as hell with some real bangers. I'm confident about including it as part of Encore because it's so good, I want folks to use it!

I can't wait to share 2.0 with y'all, I can't be shy about it, this shit's gonna' kick ass in every way.

Thank you for still working on this and keeping it organized :) A lot of True Music lovers end up just dumping their random playlist with no way to know what their mod actually has.

Hey folks, just want to talk about where we're at.

No bad news, just lateral news! On the code side of things, we're having to rewrite a major system to accommodate some expandability that we want to make sure people have access to--that is, editing the content of radio stations easily.

I have been working on refining the custom zombies and, more importantly, the track-list! I just keep coming across amazing songs for the upcoming Encore expansion, and I've been heavily tuning Home Labelled to make it as absolutely wall-to-wall packed with bangers as I can. Heads up that Home Labelled will soon become Encore, as Encore will release to its workshop page and absorb Home Labelled as a new branch for Encore.

I can't give any ETAs, it'll probably be a bit with this rewrite, but things are looking great!
