So, for a while now, I’ve been working on and off on a mod for Doom which allows the user to create an in-game playlist of the music they want to listen to. This is “Jimmy’s Jukebox”, and is currently available as version 7, here.

The Jukebox is a collection of 773 unique MIDI tracks which are grouped into “collections”. Collections can be selected individually or together to create a random selection of music tracks, which then plays throughout the game.

What I’ve just released isn’t version 8 exactly. It’s a separate release called the “User Jukebox” which comes with a bunch of blank collections, so it can be user-edited for custom collections. With a little modification, you can make your own collections from tracks from your own media library!

If you want  to give it a shot, get it here! Customizing it requires some knowledge of Action Code Script, but please consult the “help.txt” file if you’re unsure. Just get version 7 if you’re not up for that kind of thing.

This mod requires the latest subversion of ZDoom or GZDoom to run, plus a copy of the Doom2 IWAD.
