INSTALLATION NOTES
DO NOTHING OTHER THAN THIS.
Step 1: Read the description. THIS IS NOT OPTIONAL. This mod package requires a complex installation that will take time and patience from you. If you read the description, you will very likely save yourself quite a bit of time.
Step 2: Install with or without mod manager.
Step 3: Using the WHAT'S THIS DO? WHAT'S THAT DO? sections of the description to guide you, place the music you want to use in the appropriate folders(data/music/EMO/) using the exact same naming convention the placeholders already found in the folders are using. All new tracks added in this manner MUST be in xwm format. TIP: in windows, if you select all the files you want for a certain category, then right click to rename them to the category per the placeholder, it will automatically name all the files the correct way. then you just need to place them in the appropriate folder. You can only have 20 tracks per folder, and they must be named in 1, 2, 3, 4... sequential format up to 20, just as the placeholder tracks are(you are supposed to overwrite/delete them).
Step 4: Delete ALL unused placeholder tracks once all of your tracks are in place. This will prevent long periods of silence in your game.
IF YOU ARE UNINSTALLING
It's all good, you might use the script cleaner to clean out the scripts, but it shouldn't matter much.

📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community favorite with 1,663 endorsements.
- Over 24,000 downloads show it's been tried by many.
- Punk rock tracks add a raw, energetic vibe to gameplay.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2015, so it may not be compatible with newer game versions.
- Punk rock style isn't for everyone—if you prefer ambient or orchestral, skip it.
- Potential conflicts with other audio mods that alter the same music files.
For players who want to crank up the volume with punk rock instead of the default soundtrack. If you're into high-energy music while exploring or fighting, this is your jam. Skip if you prefer the original score or want a more immersive, subtle audio experience.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure to back up your original music files before replacing them, so you can revert if needed.
- Check if the mod requires a specific game version—since it's from 2015, it might not work with the latest patches.
- If you use other audio mods, install this one last to avoid overwriting conflicts.
