BattleBeats | Dynamic Music System

[hr][/hr]

What is BattleBeats?

BattleBeats is a modern, all-in-one music system for GMod, built completely from scratch. It plays combat music during fights and ambient tracks while exploring, and works just as well as a standalone mp3 player

Works with packs from:

Nombat, SBM, 16th Note, Action Music, DYNAMO, MP3 Radio and Working Record Player Disable the respective base addons and BattleBeats will automatically pick them up

I recommend using the x86_64 version of the game for the best experience

What makes it different?

• Dynamic music volume - the volume adapts to the situation: number of enemies, your HP and how open your surroundings are. The environment system checks available space, visibility, lighting, sky exposure and nearby geometry, so the music reacts when you open a door or look through a window
• Subtitles / lyrics - the only music addon with a full lyrics system. Show them on the HUD or as floating text in the game world, with smooth transitions between lines. Display two languages at once (for example your language plus the original lyrics) and adjust the position, mode and languages to your liking
• Full user interface - browse, preview and manage your packs, with a description and tooltip for every option. Open it from the context menu
• Playlists - mix tracks from different packs, with import and export
• Assign NPCs to tracks - give any NPC its own theme and build your own game soundtrack. Works with most NPC bases, including VJ BASE and DRG BASE
• PvP, PvE and EvE - each one highly customizable
• Audio control - master, ambient and combat volume, plus volume per pack and per track. Trim tracks with custom start and end points, favorite them and rename them
• Highly customizable - over 40 options, all player-side and independent of the server
• Now playing notification - shows the current track with animated visualizer bars
