View source for Tutorial:Editing Content Params

Found at <code> Content/ContentParams.xml</code>, the Content Params file is used to set certain constant values in PMDO.

To begin making modifications using a [[mod]], copy the <code>ContentParams.xml</code> file into the mod's <code>Content</code> folder. Then, that file can be edited to apply those changes to be loaded when using the mod.

== Editing ==
<code>ContentParams.xml</code> (as of PMDO 0.8.11) controls the following parameters in PMDO using its tags.

=== Sounds ===
These are constant sounds that are referenced across PMDO. They can be re-directed to different sources by changing the path specified inside of them. Its root folder is at the sound folder.

The following sounds can be edited:
* Hunger
* NullDmg
* Cursed
* Pickup
* PickupFoe
* Replace
* Place
* Equip
* Money
* Leader

=== Title ===
These are the assets used to change what appears in the title. This currently includes the background title screen and the background music.

==== Background ====
In order to make a background available to be used as a new background, it must first be imported as a background inside of [[Dev Mode|dev mode]]. Vanilla PMDO uses the Sky background, by referencing it by so:

 <nowiki>
<TitleBG>Sky</TitleBG></nowiki>

To change the background, change the inside of the tag to be the name of the background. For example, to change the title screen to some added background called <code>Cliff</code>:

 <nowiki>
<TitleBG>Cliff</TitleBG></nowiki>

==== Music ====
To change the music that plays on the title, a new track should first be added to the mod's <code>Content/Music</code> folder. Vanilla PMDO uses <code>Title.ogg</code>:

 <nowiki>
<TitleBGM>Title.ogg</TitleBGM></nowiki>

To change the music to a new track, say for example <code>MainTheme.ogg</code>:
 <nowiki>
<TitleBGM>MainTheme.ogg</TitleBGM></nowiki>

=== Monster House ===
To change the music that plays when a monster house is encountered, a new track should first be added to the mod's <code>Content/Music</code> folder. Vanilla PMDO uses <code>Monster House.ogg</code>:

 <nowiki>
<MonsterBGM>Monster House.ogg</MonsterBGM></nowiki>

To change the music to a new track, say for example <code>Danger.ogg</code>:
 <nowiki>
<MonsterBGM>Danger.ogg</MonsterBGM></nowiki>
