[Open Assets] Final Lap Formula

The Final Lap Formula, a recreation of Mario Kart's music system for SRB2's Race and Competition game modes!
It notifies when you pass the last Star Post...

...and when you finish the level!

It is even compatible with Circuit! Footage taken with the Circuit Redux pack.


So yeah. All in the title.
Note that this addon is meant to be used in netgames, and netgames only.
For the best experience, enable digital music and set the music preference to Digital. Who nowadays prefers midi tho? No offense.

Welcome to releases!

this looks amazing even if is so simple. good job

Doesn't seem to be working for me in normal play. I've tried both L_FinalLapFormula-v1 and L_FinalLapFormula-v1NonCircuitOnly, and nothing new happens with any checkpoints or signposts. Do I require the Starpost HUD mod?

Edit: Tried it in local multiplayer, and it acts as if I crossed the final signpost at gamestart, and then mutes the music.

I suppose it's not exactly meant to work in Single Player, so I'm not surprised it doesn't.
Oh, and by the way, I had the same problem in multiplayer when I tried to test it. It only happened on the first race though, because the rest worked well.

What this mod does is neat! There's one bit of feedback I'd like to give, though.
This was probably done for resource/time purposes, but I noticed the "Final Lap" renditions of each track were made by making the game itself speed them up, which... I'll be honest, makes them sound crackly all over.
While I'd imagine that Ideally what one'd think is that each act/level would have its own "Final Lap" theme, I know that's not exactly... Easy to accomplish, to say the least.
Maybe it won't made a difference, and may not be worth it in the long-run, but... Perhaps the crackly aspect to the Final Lap renditions can be avoided by speeding up each of them manually?
Still, good job on this! Pretty neat and novel quality to it!

Already? Wow, that was fast! Nice mod, BTW.

Thanks for the bug report. I'll get to fixing that as soon as I can.

Well, what about custom music? Can't predict those now, can I?
Then again, the same also happens with Sonic.EXE.
