Changing the Intro Music

Hello, I was wondering if there was a way to change the intro music?

 

Navigate to garrysmod/gamemodes/<schema>/
Note: Where <Schema> Would be the schema name, examples are cwHL2RP.

Open sh_schema.lua and locate "Clockwork.option:SetKey("menu_music"

Clockwork.option:SetKey("menu_music", "path/to/mp3.mp3");
Set it to your path.

Mine was sound/exo/menutheme/halflife.mp3
So that would be "Clockwork.option:SetKey("menu_music", "exo/menutheme/halflife.mp3");" for me.

 

Thanks for the help

 

I figured i would post here rather then make an entirely new thread for the same purpose. Now i did exactly as told here but when i started the server there was no music at all. I have checked for the following things

The file is in MP3 format.
The Schema File was edited as instructed
The MP3 file is in the sounds folder

Am i missing something?

 

You didn't make the client download the file.

 

I forgot to tell you how to add it to Fast Download or somewhat.

To achieve this, go to your server's root folder(garrysmod)
Navigate to lua -> autorun -> server

Then create a new file and name it "resources.lua" ensure there isn't a .txt at the end to mistake.
Then open it with your favorite editor, and add this

Code:

resource.AddFile( "sound/music/bla.mp3" )

Save it, and also add it to your FastDL(I recommend also compressing it with bzip2) if you have one.

Also, does the console say any errors, e.g unable to locate the file.
To see if you have downloaded it, on the clientside issue the command in Rcon

Code:

play path/to/mp3.mp3

It is already in the sound folder, so the actual path is sound/path/to/mp3.mp3

Hope this helps.

 

Alrighty, I tried to follow the instructions, but I keep getting this error spammed in my gmod console

Code:

Failed to load sound "exo\menutheme\hl2rpcombinethemetest.mp3", file probably missing from disk/repository

 

Most likely using the wrong path.

Try placing the file in sound/common. No real need for more folders. Then just do

sound/common/filename.mp3

 

Would it be possible to get a song from YouTube, download it as an MP3 and then add it to the server and Fast DL?
