Music for the End of the World adds several new items to the game, most of which exist to help you organize and store your music conveniently. Let's get into those first:

The Backpack Boombox is a boombox that occupies the back fanny pack slot and is strapped to the back, hanging underneath the bag. It'll clip on many outfits, but that's fine, as it's easily hidden with jackets and such. It acts as a Boombox held in your hand, but without occupying a hand slot using revolutionary technology known as a 'strap'!

The Blank Cassette is an uncommon cassette that can be used with a radio or boombox to copy a song playing on the radio or another cassette. Want to share a copy with friends, or copy a song you're hearing on the radio because you've been looking for it forever? Here you go!

The Music Bag is for your total music needs, able to hold all music related items including music players, radios, headphones, batteries, dance cards, and cassettes/vinyls. Highly rare, highly prized, it'll hold your whole collection and anything you need to play it!

The Cassette Bag is a fanny pack that does exactly what you'd think! It accepts only cassettes (OK, fine, you can also put your Sany Wutman, earbuds, and Dance Cards into it), but has remarkable weight reduction, enabling it to hold a huge collection.

The Vinyl Case is a case that serves much the same function for Vinyls, a little less portable but so are vinyl players! It can also hold record players!

The Mix Binders are small, very lightweight 'cases' (they have the briefcase model in game) that can hold 50 of their respective item, cassettes or vinyls. They can go into other music containers such as the Cassette Bag. They reduce the weight of a subset of music items and can be renamed to help organize them and make playlists.

The Black Boxes are easter-egg items thatcan be used to convert one cassette (Lea's) or vinyl (Albion's) into one other random item of the same type, allowing you to recycle duplicate music items. They can be used twice a day, or three times a day if you have the relevant trait. You must have Easter Eggs enabled for them to spawn, in which case they can appear extremely rarely on zombie corpses.

The mod introduces the following pages of mod options and sandbox settings:

Mod Options

Wherever we can, we like to implement little changes and features to zhuzh up the experience of using True Music! Right now, those changes are:

- Fixes sound emitters in B42 for True Music. Boomboxes and vinyl players will no longer stop playing sound at a very short range.
- Introduces a few new drop locations in B42 that base True Music does not support, including parcels.
- Context menu option that allows you to decide how you want to display vinyls: flat, slanted or upright. This only works for MFTEOTW-related items and any mod that supports it; you can mod support for this feature into your own True Music pack. Only works in B42; disabled automatically in B41.
- Boomboxes are now tintable.
