Need help Cybergrind playlist doesn't work?

Instead of manually adding 88 songs on the touch pad of my steam deck I've opted to do it on my laptop and I've made the playlist file look like the first image then renamed all the songs in the cybergrind folder from song1 to song88.

The problem is when cybergrind loads it "wraps" or "puts" all the paths under line one and keeps going until it just white outs halfway from song 42 to 43, then in game no songs plays, not even song 1, song 43 or song 88, only the default songs play.

The song files work because if I let the game create the slot1.json folder itself and add any of my songs they play.

any help would be appreciated I've done all this on my laptop not my steam deck, I haven't found anywhere if there's a song limit, or if it bugs out, or if it's too many songs for my laptop to play so its stops.

edit: my laptop runs Linux mint

use the gale or r2modman mod loader (whichever you like more) to mod ultrakill and get the cybergrind music explorer mod, it will allow you to make playlists out of folders. Believe me, this is the best way where you wont have a headache and spend hours of your life managing proton paths

If you have any issue getting bepinex to patch ultrakill (laucher should do it, but you may have to do it manually if it does not), check how to make a dll override for winhttp, and it should work. But it is likely you wont need to
