[THUG2/THUG Pro] Best of THPS: Greatest Hits Playlist Mod

Post by ThAEm »

I know that LightningSam pretty much did the same mod, but I honestly thought that it would've been better with a modded in-game playlist instead of just replacing all of the original bik files.


With that out of the way, I present to you Best of THPS for THUG2 and/or THUG Pro!
80 songs (the limit for THUG2) spanning from THPS1 to THPG. Nine from each game, except THPS1, which eight were chosen. And of course in their explicit forms, 'cause why the hell not?! (Exception for Bad Dreams, since that song is pretty much NOWHERE to be found except for THPS4, so it was ripped from the game in its censored form.)

Songs were picked out by:
- Usage (trailers, intro sequences, credits, etc.)
- Some that were made by Pro Skaters or people of the Neversoft Team (Muskabeats, An Endless Sporadic, City Stars, etc.)
- Personal choice, as in what songs I thought really stood out from the games
- Overall popularity (Tony Hawk's personal favorites, charted songs, ones that make people think of THPS whenever they listen to them, i.e. Superman, etc.)

Download Here

All songs, except four, were encoded from FLAC or high-quality MP3. (320, VBR v0, etc.)
All songs shouldn't have the issue where it won't go to the next song when it finishes.
I also added some filters to the songs to give them that THUG2 sound to them, of course keeping them perceptually lossless.

CREDITS:

Skater1014
Restoring the playlist, which I would've never done in 100 years.

Catarax
Ripping "Drums of Fire", "Rapper's Delight", and the two Pro Skater tracks from the PS2 port.

LightningSam
Inspiration, since he/she did a similar mod but with only 53 songs and an unmodified playlist. It's a pretty cool selection of songs as well.

Extract the archive to a folder somewhere in your desktop or downloads, and then move the files to the respective directory.
You usually can't do it directly from the extraction program since you would need to enable administrator privileges to do actions that involve modifying files in a program directory.
