Mod Packs
When you make a level in Beat Banger, you’re also creating a mod pack for it. Mod packs can hold multiple levels, which is useful if you’re making a bigger or more ambitious mod that needs multiple leves inside it. The game doesn’t currently let you add levels to a mod pack in game, but you can do it manually by editing the mod pack’s files.
Customizing Your Levels for Your Mod Pack
First, create each level, making sure to set the level thumbnail, splash screen, and level name in the Level Settings menu.
Once all your levels are ready, pick one to be your main mod pack and set the mod pack thumbnail and mod pack name in the same menu. After that, you can add the other levels to this mod pack.
From the Level Settings menu, you can modify:
- Level thumbnail
- Mod pack thumbnail
- Splash screen
- Level name
- Mod pack name
Adding Multiple Levels
To add multiple levels to a mod pack:
- Place each level folder inside the mod pack’s root folder (the folder containing
act.cfg). - Open each level’s
config/meta.cfgfile. - Assign a
level_indexvalue to each level.
Level Index Rules
- The first level must have a
level_indexof 0. - Each additional level must increment by 1.
- Indices must be sequential with no gaps or duplicates.
For example, if your mod pack contains 6 levels, the indices must be: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6
If the numbering is incorrect, the levels will not populate properly in-game.
