I'm trying to add sounds for a gun in a mod I'm working on with a friend(a mod based on the Carnivores series of games, i.e. Carnivores, Carnivores: Ice Age) and I'm not sure on the most recent methods used for this.

 

The tutorial for a blaster on the Forge wiki used this:

@ForgeSubscribe
   public void onSound(SoundLoadEvent event)
   {
       try
       {
       		String [] soundFiles = {
       				"lasershot.ogg",
       				"miningshot.wav",
       				"miningcharge.wav",
       				"miningLoaded1.wav",
       				"plasmaboil1.wav",
       				"plasmaboil2.wav",
       				"plasmaCharged.wav",
       				"plasmashot2.wav",
       				"plasmablast1.wav",
       				"blastershot1.wav",
       				"blastershot2.wav"
       				};
       		for (int i = 0; i < soundFiles.length; i++){
       			event.manager.soundPoolSounds.addSound(soundFiles[i], SenitielsSpaceMarineMod.class.getResource("/mods/SenitielsSpaceMarineMod/sounds/" + soundFiles[i]));
       		}
      
       }
       catch (Exception e)
       {
           System.err.println("Space Marine Mod: Failed to register one or more sounds.");
       }
   }

 

However, I have no idea what this would look like with 1.7.10 methods.

In 1.7, you no longer use any events at all, but a json file for sounds. Put it in your resources/assets directory (the base directory, not the sounds folder).

 

It should look something like this:

{
    "levelup": {"category": "player","sounds":["special/levelup"]},
    "master_sword": {"category": "ambient","sounds":["special/master_sword"]},
    "secret_medley": {"category": "ambient","sounds":["special/secret_medley"]}
}

Note that the final entry does not have a comma. The directory for those sounds is "assets/sounds/sound | subfolder"

 

EDIT: Btw, I have only used .ogg format in 1.7; I'm not sure if .wav works or not, so you'll have to try it.

I have a tutorial on organizing and using sound assets in 1.7.x: http://jabelarminecraft.blogspot.com/p/minecraft-forge-1721710-organizing-and.html

 

I do think you have to have your sounds in OGG format, but I discuss how to convert them in the tutorial.

Yeah, I need to add sounds for the guns in the mod.  As in, sounds that play when the gun is used.

 

Edit: Nvm, got it working.
