MP3 shortcuts don't work in Custom Music folder

MP3 shortcuts don't work in Custom Music folder. The songs don't show up or play in-game. 

  • @RtHonLaqueesha I don't think you could ever do it via shortcuts. The game is pretty particular about formats.

    Oh, that's unfortunate. Other games do support MP3 shortcuts for custom music.

    Did you place your music in the folders "American, Backyard, Metal etc" provided under "Custom Music" folder It was the only way I could get mp3 to show up and play
