MusicLayer

Mod Overview

MusicLayer is a specialized library for playing music compositions in Minecraft without delays and game freezes. The mod supports several audio file loading formats and ensures smooth music playback.

Main Features

The system supports three main ways of loading music files:

Loading from game resources - allows using audio files located in mod resource folders. For example, the path testmod:music/beach will automatically load the file /assets/testmod/sounds/music/beach.ogg.

Loading via URLs - supports direct links to OGG files on the internet. During the first playback, the music is downloaded and saved in the .minecraft/musiclayer/music/ folder under a name created based on the URL's MD5 hash. All subsequent playbacks use the local copy for instant startup. The system automatically checks for file updates on the server.

Flexible configuration - provides the ability to use any input data streams for sound playback, opening wide possibilities for customization.

Technical Features

For proper operation, MusicLayer automatically installs an additional library in the /asm/MusicLayer/SoundLib.jar folder. This is a standard procedure necessary for the mod's functioning.

Important Information

It's important to understand that MusicLayer itself does not add new content to the game. Its main purpose is to provide tools for other mods that can use its capabilities for music playback. Installing this mod without dependencies from other mods has no practical meaning.

Requirements

MusicLayer requires the installation of the HammerLib mod.
