Playing audio from Entity position, via an InputStream (online resource)

[MRVDOG]

Hi, I run a website called YogBytes, which is a repository of sound bytes dedicated to the Yogscast, I am working on a Minecraft mod for it, currently I have a byte player, that allows you to enter a byte id when SHIFT+right clicked, which then when right clicked, or toggled with redstone, it retrieves an InputStream from the website

 

 

    public static void main(int id, World world, int x, int y, int z) throws IOException {
      InputStream is = new URL("http://yogbytes.com/audio/"+id+".mp3").openStream();
      try {
        BufferedInputStream bis = new BufferedInputStream(is);
      }
      catch (Exception e) {
        System.out.println(e);
      }
    }

 

 

My question is, How would I then play that InputStream in game at the x, y, z position of the BytePlayer TileEntity?

 

 

Last time I coded a Minecraft Mod was 1.4, things have changed sooo much since then

 

 

Thanks in advance for your assistance 

 

 

PS, I am coding this for 1.7.10, but will update to 1.8 once I have it working

You will need a custom IResourcePack implementation and put it into Minecraft#defaultResourcePacks (you need reflection). In that resource pack you can map a custom ResourceLocation to any InputStream you want.

 

You might also want to use caching here, so that the files does not need to be downloaded every time.
