# Installing Songs (Steam Version)
2+
---
3+
!> **IMPORTANT:** This guide is for the VR game *Trombone Champ: Unflattened* on **Steam**. For installing custom songs in the standard game, see the [mod installation guide for Trombone Champ](installing-r2modman).
4+
5+
Trombone Champ: Unflattened has built-in custom song support, and is compatible with charts made for the base game. Do note that only video and image backgrounds will work, custom backgrounds made in Unity will not.
6+
7+
?> You can find community made custom charts on [TootTally](https://toottally.com/), or by browsing [TromboneDB](https://tc-mods.github.io/TromboneDB/).
8+
9+
1. Open Steam and select **Trombone Champ: Unflattened**. Click the ⚙️ **Cog Wheel** icon and go to **Manage > Browse local files**.
10+
![Browse local files in Steam](../docs/files/vr/unflattenedsteam.png)
11+
12+
2. From here, navigate to `TromboneChampUnflattened_Data\StreamingAssets\customtracks\`. In another window or tab, open up the ZIP file containing the chart you downloaded, and then drag the containing folder into the `customtracks` folder.

!> Each chart must be stored in its own folder. If the ZIP file you've downloaded doesn't contain a folder, you will have to make one yourself and then copy the ZIP contents (`song.tmb`, `song.ogg`, and `.bg.png`/`.bg.mp4`) to it.
17+
18+
3. Once you've finished copying over the songs you want, start up the game, head into **Free Play**, and then you'll find your custom songs listed in their own category.

- Discord has since disabled the ability to link files externally, so most links in the spreadsheet will no longer work. We have created [TromboneDB](https://tc-mods.github.io/TromboneDB/) as a replacement which has download mirrors for all charts.
