Update (1/11/19): We added more context around the options you should select in the Mod Installer. We’ve also now got a guide on installing custom sabers.
Update (8/3/18): Recent patches have rendered the below method broken for a lot of people. However — don’t worry. There’s a fix out there spotted by our friends at RoadtoVR and it’s called the Beat Saber Mod Manager. If you’re new to adding custom songs to Beat Saber, then skip the original steps and just do these new ones. If you installed songs previously that aren’t working anymore, there’s an optional step here you can follow.
Here are the steps:
I’ve tested it and I can confirm that not only does it work, but you’ll now also be able to download songs directly inside of Beat Saber without needing to restart the game or extract tracks into the game’s folder.
Original (5/18/18): While we patiently wait for official (and free) DLC, the alpha version of Beat Saber’s level editor will have to do for now. Thankfully, it’s not too difficult to download and import tracks that users have created for the time being, even if it’s not officially supported.
We livestreamed a bunch of custom-made songs for an hour yesterday, so you can check that video out down below (I specifically recommend Take On Me, which you can see me complete on Expert after three tries at 53:48) –
Getting Beat Saber to work with custom songs is simple:
If you get stuck, there is a handy-dandy ReadMe file in the .zip you’re supposed to download from step one, so just check that.
Now to actually install new tracks, you need to visit Beat Saver, which is a community-ran website with tons of songs ready to download. Be warned that many of these tracks don’t fit the game well or have really poor mapping. Sorting them by most played or most downloaded helps filter out the stinkers.
Once you download a song just drag and drop its entire folder into the CustomSongs folder that should be in your Beat Saber directory now. From there, you should be good to go!
What are some of your favorite custom tracks so far? Let us know down in the comments below!

Video Copilot has posted a teaser trailer for Orb, a new GPU-accelerated planet-generation plugin for After Effects. The software, which will be a free download, is
Generate 3D planets with detailed atmospheres andlighting
At the minute, the only information about Orb is from the video itself, which shows a range of nice-looking shots of planets seen from space.
Features listed include physically realistic shaders, atmospheric controls, environment reflections, bump mapping for surface detail, and motion blur.
There is also an “automatic shadow illumination” system, which displays light from cities once that part of a planet passes into shadow.
Updated 19 September 2018: Orb is now shipping.
Video Copilot has launched a mini-site devoted to the plugin. It doesn’t go into much more detail about the feature set, but you can see the workflow in the 30-minute video tutorial embedded avove.
System requirements and availability
Orb is compatible with After Effects CS6+ running on Windows 7+ and Mac OS X 10.8.5+. The plugin is free. Related posts:
