Potatoes' Take And Hold Background Music Loader

Whoo! What a doozy for a name. For an easier name, you're welcome to use the official acronym, PTNHBGML. Much nicer.

Or Potatoes' Sound Loader.

Your choice, whichever rolls off the tongue better.

Anyway, PTNHBGML is a simple mod; and it's in the name. It loads music. It replaces your old Take And Hold background music with much nicer (insert genre of music) that you enjoy.

You can change BGMs, Announcers, and Sosig voicelines in the panel in the TnH Lobby.

Please see the wiki page on GitHub for info about making a mod using PTNHBGML!

PTNHBGML is primarily a LIBRARY. It contains no extra features of its own, with the exception of allowing you to use the (hidden and unused, but existing) corrupted announcer.

You can read the updates on the GitHub repo!

Added

• Added variable front and back padding (Time distance between an event occuring, and the voiceline starting, and time distance between the voiceline ending, and the next queued voiceline starting, respectively) at the request of Trittyburd. To use, add a field in your announcer yamlfest front_padding = [time in seconds] and back_padding = [time in seconds]. Default is 0.2 for front_padding and 1.2 for back_padding. These fields are not necessary, and if not present, will default to the default

Whoo! What a doozy for a name. For an easier name, you're welcome to use the official acronym, PTNHBGML. Much nicer.

Anyway, PTNHBGML is a simple mod; and it's in the name. It loads music. It replaces your old Take And Hold background music with much nicer (insert genre of music) that you enjoy.

NOTE: Because of limitations of the human ear, it can only load one BGM mod at once.

For Modders: Of course, you may wonder how to make your mod PTNHBGML compatible. First of all, actually make your music mod. You can follow Sora101TD's tutorial over here. Then, rename your .bank file to MX_TAH_[MyEpicMusicModNameHere].bank. Once you've done that, simply upload your fancy music mod as a regular Thunderstore mod. PTNHBGML should now pick it up!
