I have a very basic understanding of Java but really enjoy tinkering. Sorry if this question is stupid :) I believe that this problem is simply due to my basic understanding of Java. I am not really looking for a solution here, more just a pointer to get me unstuck. 

I have a client only mod (Music Player). I want to send an int from the server to the music player mod but I am not sure the best way to do this.

Reason:
I want to be able to start battle music when a player is within a configurable range of a 'boss entity' and then stop the battle music when the entity is dead or if the player is no longer in range.

I have the entity range detection working and also the packets working through a helper mod. I am not sure how to send the int from the helper mod client side to the client only mod?

Thought 1: In my helper mod, if I depend on the Music Player mod, wouldn't creating a 'new Class()' cause a duplicative instance of the music player rather than communicating with the instance that is actually running on the client?

Thought 2: Is it possible for a packet to be sent from one mod and received on the client by another mod?

Thought 3: I could modify the music player mod to also run on the server and then move the packets to the music player mod. If I did that though, wouldn't I have the same 'new class()' problem?

not possible you can't send a custom packet from the server to the client when it's a client only mod

I understand that. My helper mod can send/receive the packets though and my helper mod is both client/server.

My question is is it possible to send an 'int' from my helper mod client side to the client only mod?

My thought was that if my helper mod depends on the client only mod, then maybe I could call a method directly and pass in the int? Where I am confused is that wouldn't that mean that I would be instantiating a copy of the client only mod class?

Not sure why you didn't just make the music mod have a server half to do the networking, but whatever.

Look at using IMC messages or a static field reference on your music player that holds the music player's mod instance.

Apparently I'm a complete and utter jerk and come to this forum just like to make fun of people, be confrontational, and make your personal life miserable.  If you think this is the case, JUST REPORT ME.  Otherwise you're just going to get reported when you reply to my posts and point it out, because odds are, I was trying to be nice.

 

Exception: If you do not understand Java, I WILL NOT HELP YOU and your thread will get locked.

 

DO NOT PM ME WITH PROBLEMS. No help will be given.

Thank you both. I think the approach of making the music mod server/client is probably the best approach. A few days ago I removed the @clientonly definition on the main class and it completely crashed the server, i did not look into it to much after that. :)

I will take a stab at making the music mod server/client enabled.

If that does not work, I will look at IMC messages. Thank you!

do never use @OnlyIn it's only for vanilla you can use this,
also side mods are not create via @OnlyIn take a look at this

I changed the Music Player mod to not crash on the server and added packets to it. It is working perfectly now. Thanks again for the help.

      HOW TO RECOVER STOLEN BITCOIN/ BYTEPHANTOM CYBER RECOVERY WILL SOLVE YOUR PROBLEMS

      By Benardfred7879 · Posted

      I received an unexpected email claiming that a long-lost relative had left me a substantial inheritance $140,000 in cryptocurrency At first I was skeptical The message came with a lot of convincing documents legal jargon and even a supposed lawyer’s contact information They insisted everything was legitimate and the funds were waiting to be transferred All I needed to do they said was cover a few minor processing and transfer fees It seemed like a small price to pay for such a large windfall Against my better judgment I paid the fees Then more fees followed They kept assuring me the payout was right around the corner Weeks went by and the excuses kept coming Eventually it became clear this was a sophisticated scam The $140K inheritance was never real and I had been tricked into sending thousands of dollars to fraudsters embarrassed I started researching online and came across Byte phantom cyber services I was hesitant at first after all I had just been scammed But their website had positive reviews and they specialized in cryptocurrency fraud I reached out not expecting much To my surprise they responded quickly and professionally They were incredibly understanding and didn't make me feel foolish Their team walked me through the process step by step They used digital forensics and blockchain tracing techniques to track down the wallet addresses involved in the scam Within weeks they identified the fraudsters and began recovery efforts To my amazement Byte phantom cyber services recovered 100% of my lost funds Every cent I honestly couldn’t believe it They taught me how to recognize red flags avoid similar traps in the future and protect my digital identity I now feel empowered and informed not just lucky If you've been scammed or even suspect it don't stay silent Reach out to Byte phantom cyber services I got my money back

      Issue trying to run my mod when I have Oculus as a dependancy

      By timy_g · Posted

      So, First of I am new to modding so bare with me I am creating a 1.20.1 forge mod that needs Oculus/Embeddium as a dependancy because later on I need to add custom shaders in for lights and such. I am using ParchmentMC as I've heard its better because of namings of things but that doesn't seem to like it when I run it alongside Oculus (Its a very barebones script adding two blocks and an item, and tested it before I did this) The 4 errors I get when I run 'runClient' is Caused by: org.spongepowered.asm.mixin.transformer.throwables.MixinTransformerError: An unexpected critical error was encountered Caused by: org.spongepowered.asm.mixin.throwables.MixinApplyError: Mixin [mixins.oculus.json:texture.MixinAbstractTexture] from phase [DEFAULT] in config [mixins.oculus.json] FAILED during APPLY Caused by: org.spongepowered.asm.mixin.injection.throwables.InvalidInjectionException: Critical injection failure: @Inject annotation on iris$afterGenerateId could not find any targets matching 'Lnet/minecraft/client/renderer/texture/AbstractTexture;m_117963_()I' in net.minecraft.client.renderer.texture.AbstractTexture.

      Hello! I'm making a minecraft server, but I hit a wall on what the issue is..

      By Fleeby · Posted

      My minecraft version is 1.20.1, I haven't had too many issues other than a mod not working sometimes, in which case I usually just delete and sift through the preexisting mods to try to find the issue, but I hit a big wall of not knowing what my issue is now. I just want to make a modpack for me and my partner!!! Here's the latest log url, https://pastebin.com/9LjctgYN
