*Just to explain what that 'modding' is, it is basically you prepare a text file with the time of each beat in seconds. So they are trying to adjust the parts where the beat detection didn't work and fix these parts. But depending on what music style you want, the beat detection can work fine or it can be way off. Note that the song i described here would be a worst-case scenario, other songs that are not THAT exotic can also be hard for the program to detect the beat.Īnd that's why you see people saying they are working to make a song work in the game, because the beat auto-detect didn't work fine. So, if you really want that song to work in-game, that's when you need to get your hands on that 'modding'*. In this case, you choose a song which the program is not able to accurately detect the beat. No 100% guarantee, but most of the time, for songs like this, it will work fine.īut if you wanna play a progressive song, with lots of tempo changes and some sections without any percurssion at all, and some other sections with weird drum solos, the audio-detection will probably freak the heck out and will detect a 'beat' that is very off compared to the true beat of the song (unplayable). If you wanna load some classic rock with a very steady beat and strong percurssion, with no tempo variance, it'll probably work fine. really depends on the particular song we are talking about. BUT, as in audiosurf, computer-processed audio detection can be a little awkward sometimes. You just select the song (in-game), give the game a few seconds to process it, then you can play it. The only cases I know of where people have had to make modifications are when they were trying to replace boss music, which is not available to replace by default (likely due to the fact that it loops infinitely in the game rather than terminating at the end of the song).

The automated beat-detector isn't quite as robust as your Audiosurf example (for that game especially custom music is really the *whole point* of the game) but you should be able to get your music into Necrodancer without any modding. This should theoretically handle every case where the game cannot automatically detect a beat.

If you have a song with a strong-ish beat and constant tempo this should be all you have to do.įor songs with a beat that the automated software can't find (or varying tempos) there's an option built in the game to 'tap out' your own beats for the song. In the ideal case you simply go into the custom music menu, specify which level to replace and which audio file to use, then the game calculates the 'beatmap' automatically and you're good to go.
