When I searched this tool before I started making my own, I did not find anything. So I made my own very simple version so I could play my favorite songs. Which is what this repository is.

Beat Saber Song Converter

A simple tool that converts a Beat Saber song from the old format to the new format. Check out Beat Saber here:

Beat Saber recently hopped out of Early Access (May 2019), with the update came a native song loader.
This means that the game can now load songs without the need for mods. This is great news.
The issue is that the native songs have a different format for their Info files.

This tool is a very simple(pretty stupid) and limited tool to convert a song from the old, modding community's standard to Beat Saber's new official standard.
It does not account for:

noteJumpSpeed: How fast the notes fly at you.
Different BPM between difficulties: Beats per minute.
Special characters in the info file. Among other things I am too lazy to fix since a better version exist.

Install instrucitons:

Install Golang on your system.
https://golang.org/

git clone git@github.com:JonShard/BeatSaberSongConverter.git
cd BeatSaberSongConverter
go get github.com/bmatcuk/doublestar
go get github.com/TomOnTime/utfutil/catutf
go build

This will give you a converter.exe.

Usage

Put converter.exe and a song's info.json in the same folder.
Run converter.exe. It then generates an Info.dat. Which is in the new format.

Or:

Put converter.exe and convertAll.sh in Beat Beat Saber's root folder. If installed with Steam on C drive: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Beat Saber
Run convertAll.sh to copy all songs from 'Beat Saber/CustomSongs ' into Beat Saber's new 'Beat Saber\Beat Saber_Data\CustomLevels' folder and convert them.
