How to Add Custom Songs
The easiest way to add custom songs to Beat Saber is by using the Beat Saber Mod Manager. This program allows you to browse and download custom maps directly within the game.
To get started, you'll need to access the PC version of Beat Saber. From there, you can download and install the Beat Saber Mod Manager. Once installed, the program will prompt you to close and restart the game. After relaunching Beat Saber, you'll be able to browse and download custom maps from within the game.
Another method to add custom songs is by manually downloading and installing them. Begin by searching for the song you want to play. There are plenty of custom maps available, so you may need to do some searching. Once you find a map you like, review the instructions to determine the installation process or if any additional steps are required.
After downloading the map, you'll need to place it in the appropriate folder within the Beat Saber game directory. The location will depend on whether or not the map requires any mods. If it doesn't, simply place it in the Song folder. However, if mods are required, place the map in the Song folder and then run the Patcher.
Once the map is installed, launch Beat Saber and you can access the new song from the game's menu. Keep in mind that some maps may require additional steps or modifications to the game files. It's always a good idea to follow the instructions provided by the modding community or the creators of the custom maps.
And that's how you add new songs to Beat Saber. While adding custom content isn't officially supported by the game developers, it's relatively straightforward once you know how to do it. Additionally, there are many talented modders out there creating maps for everyone to enjoy. So, if you're looking for new songs to play, follow this guide to add them to your Beat Saber library.
