Installing custom content

This guide teaches you how to download custom content for the game.

User folder focations

  • Linux: ~/.local/share/SoundSpacePlus
  • Windows: %appdata%/SoundSpacePlus

TIP

You can easily access the User folder by pressing Open User Folder in the settings page in-game!

Installing and creating custom colorsets

  • Head to your User folder
  • Find and Open the folder named colorsets
  • You can create your own colorset by making a text file and giving it any name
  • Specify the colors you want by pasting a HEX Value of the color (each line is a color)
  • Save the file, go back to the game and press Reload Content
  • The colorset you made (or installed) should be available under the Notes tab in the settings

Installing Maps

Rewrite (Current Maintained Client)

Method 1: Drag and Drop

After downloading any map, and while you have the game open, simply drag the map file into the game window — it will be imported and focused on automatically.

Method 2: Import Maps Button

  1. Look for the Import Map button in the game.
  2. Navigate to the location of your map(s) and select them.

Migrating from Nightly (Legacy)?

If you are migrating from the Nightly client, your maps can be found at:

  • Windows: %appdata%/soundspaceplus/maps
  • Linux: ~/.local/share/soundspaceplus/maps

Your maps will be imported — it may take a while depending on how many maps you are moving.

Alternative Method

You may also drop map files directly into the /maps/default folder inside your game directory. They will be processed similarly to Method 2.

Nightly (Legacy)

In-game

  • Inside your game, on the left bar, select Content Manager
  • Follow the instructions presented to you on-screen

Manual install

Recommended when installing multiple maps at once

  • When in-game, press Open User Folder, or manually head to it in your file manager
  • Head to the specified folder for the type of map you're trying to install
    • If you're installing a Vulnus map, drag the map(s) you're installing to the vmap folder
    • If you're importing a .sspm (Sound Space Plus Map) map, drag the map(s) to the maps folder.
  • Once the maps were dragged to the respective folders, press Reload Content in-game.
