audio files out of the mod zip

[Torojima]

is there a way to access audio files out of the mod zip, without extracting them first and putting them into the minecraft resource folder? The tutorial at http://www.minecraftforge.net/wiki/Sounds_For_Forge_1.3.2 describes how to set a custom path to a sound file, but what's the path to a location inside the mod zip file?

I dont quite understand what you meant but this is what the tutorial says:

 

/path/to/your/sound.wav

 

=

 

the sound.wav in the your folder in the to folder in the path folder in the mod zip directory

quote from the bottom of the tutorial

Remember to place your sound files in the correct folder you defined above in minecraft.jar in the jars/bin folder in mcp. So I would put my sound.wav into the your folder in the to folder in the path folder in minecraft.jar

 

so if I do understand it correctly, the  /path/to/your/ is relative to the minecraft folder and not the folder structure in the mod.zip... please correct me if I'm wrong ...

 

But if I'm correct, I'm still pondering if there is a way to have the /path/to/your/ relative to the folder structure in the mod.hip file ...

/path/to/your is in the minecraft.jar in MCP and if you release your mod in a zip it will be in the yourmod.zip in the mods folder.
