[1.7.10] [SOLVED] custom block step/break sound


Recommended Posts

Posted

I'm looking for a way to add custom step/break sounds to blocks. Been searching around for a bit, and I will continue searching and trying things.

 

How would I go about this?

I'm not sure you will need a whole SoundEvent handler just for block step and break sounds. In net.minecraft.block, those sounds are defined by an anonymous class, SoundType. Surely you would only need to create your own SoundType and pass that to the setStepSound method in your block's constructor?

 

For insight as to how this works, check out net.minecraft.block. All the SoundType fields are at the very top of the Block class, the implementation is at the very bottom.

 

I believe the String passed to the SoundType constructor is handled like a ResourceLocation, except the methods in SoundType dumbly prefix the expected sounds with "dig", so you'll need your own class that extends SoundType that doesn't do this.

I had created my own SoundType. I tried what you suggested, but the only change is that it says "Unable to play unknown soundEvent: minecraft:squish" rather than dig.squish.

 

Also, most of the time the methods in Block.SoundType are called rather than the methods in the SoundType you specify. In fact it only seems to call those methods from the SoundType directly when you place the block. Walking on or breaking the block appear to call Block.SoundType's methods explicitly.

 

It's funny, the few shreds of information I've found about custom step/dig sounds for specific blocks say something along the lines of: "Not recommended. Just use one of the pre-packaged sounds instead."

Did you override the methods in your custom SoundType class to point to the correct resource location?

 

Here is a case of the approach I have suggested in action: https://github.com/Pokefenn/Chisel/blob/master/src/main/java/info/jbcs/minecraft/chisel/block/BlockCarvable.java

 

This is not my code, but it is an open-source example of a mod with custom sound types that uses an extension of SoundType to accomplish custom break and step sounds without the use of a sound event handler. I think you will find that this approach is simpler and with less overhead than a sound event manager.

That did it; I had a few obfuscated method names I had pulled from MCP src. Also wasn't explicitly overriding for some reason. You saved me some overhead and some time, thanks.

 

Now I just have to figure out how to randomize the pitch.

 

 

Edit: o/t, but do you work with caracals or something? My mother was a handler back in the day, mostly servals, Asian leopards and maus. Fascinating animals.  :P

I think you could probably randomize pitch without any additional code by taking advantage how the existing sound system works. This isn't something I've tried myself, though.

 

Provided you're working with 1.7.2 or newer, of course, sounds are loaded based on a few parameters defined in the Sounds.json file: http://minecraft.gamepedia.com/Sounds.json

 

I don't work with caracals but I sometimes wish I do. They are very cool.

Oh, I get it, they use extras of each sound effect and choose which to play at random. For some reason I thought they used a single sound byte and randomized it in pitch and volume. It makes sense, the approach they chose is better for resource pack authors.

 

Anyway, thanks again.

    • just rewatched the tutorial and my code is exactly the same as kaupenjoe's.  the item is added into the game but like i said to start it doesnt have a texture or a proper name for whatever reason.
    • yes the name is en_us.json and it is in resources -> assests -> testmod -> lang folders.  i have checked my code and am pretty confident that the code itself is correct.  i even tried loading the project in eclipse and it has the same problems, I think i will just rewatch the whole tutorial and will give an update on the situation.
    • same error, I also tried removing Valkyrian skies as well because I noticed it coming up a lot in the debug log errors
    • Hey man,    i have only been modding Minecraft for a few days but maybe I can help you. First of all make sure to follow every step of Kaupenjoe's tutorial, I found it to been very helpful and complete. The game uses the raw translation key for the item (in your case "item.testmod.alexandrite") if it can't find the correct lang file. Make sure it's name is "en_us.json" and it is saved under "ressources" -> "assets" -> "testmod".
    • whenever I try to get this item to render into the game it appears with the not texture purple and black squares and calls itself by the lang translation file path instead of the name i gave it.   { "item.testmod.alexandrite": "Alexandrite" } this is the lang json file package net.Hurst.testmod.item; import net.Hurst.testmod.TestMod; import net.minecraft.world.item.Item; import net.minecraftforge.eventbus.api.IEventBus; import net.minecraftforge.registries.DeferredRegister; import net.minecraftforge.registries.ForgeRegistries; import net.minecraftforge.registries.RegistryObject; public class ModItems { public static final DeferredRegister<Item> ITEMS = DeferredRegister.create(ForgeRegistries.ITEMS, TestMod.MOD_ID); public static final RegistryObject<Item> ALEXANDRITE = ITEMS.register("alexandrite", () -> new Item(new Item.Properties())); public static void register(IEventBus eventBus){ ITEMS.register(eventBus); } } this is my ModItems.java file package net.Hurst.testmod; import com.mojang.logging.LogUtils; import net.Hurst.testmod.item.ModItems; import net.minecraft.world.item.CreativeModeTabs; import net.minecraftforge.api.distmarker.Dist; import net.minecraftforge.common.MinecraftForge; import net.minecraftforge.event.BuildCreativeModeTabContentsEvent; import net.minecraftforge.event.server.ServerStartingEvent; import net.minecraftforge.eventbus.api.IEventBus; import net.minecraftforge.eventbus.api.SubscribeEvent; import net.minecraftforge.fml.ModLoadingContext; import net.minecraftforge.fml.common.Mod; import net.minecraftforge.fml.config.ModConfig; import net.minecraftforge.fml.event.lifecycle.FMLClientSetupEvent; import net.minecraftforge.fml.event.lifecycle.FMLCommonSetupEvent; import net.minecraftforge.fml.javafmlmod.FMLJavaModLoadingContext; import org.slf4j.Logger; // The value here should match an entry in the META-INF/mods.toml file @Mod(TestMod.MOD_ID) public class TestMod { public static final String MOD_ID = "testmod"; private static final Logger LOGGER = LogUtils.getLogger(); public TestMod() { IEventBus modEventBus = FMLJavaModLoadingContext.get().getModEventBus(); modEventBus.addListener(this::commonSetup); ModItems.register(modEventBus); MinecraftForge.EVENT_BUS.register(this); modEventBus.addListener(this::addCreative); ModLoadingContext.get().registerConfig(ModConfig.Type.COMMON, Config.SPEC); } private void commonSetup(final FMLCommonSetupEvent event) { } // Add the example block item to the building blocks tab private void addCreative(BuildCreativeModeTabContentsEvent event) { if(event.getTabKey() == CreativeModeTabs.INGREDIENTS){ event.accept(ModItems.ALEXANDRITE); } } // You can use SubscribeEvent and let the Event Bus discover methods to call @SubscribeEvent public void onServerStarting(ServerStartingEvent event) { } // You can use EventBusSubscriber to automatically register all static methods in the class annotated with @SubscribeEvent @Mod.EventBusSubscriber(modid = MOD_ID, bus = Mod.EventBusSubscriber.Bus.MOD, value = Dist.CLIENT) public static class ClientModEvents { @SubscribeEvent public static void onClientSetup(FMLClientSetupEvent event) { } } } this is my TestMod.java file { "parent": "minecraft:item/generated", "textures": { "layer0": "testmod:item/generated" } } this is my model file for the item. I am using intellij 2025.1.2 with fdk 1.21 and java 21 I would appreciate the help.
