[Solved] [1.10.2] How to play a custom sound?

FireController1847 · August 13, 2016

Now this one is a big one, and I want to fully understand it. How would I be able to play a custom sound file to the player?

Matryoshika · August 13, 2016

Sounds need to be converted to the .ogg format, last I checked.

In assets/modid/sounds, add the .ogg files.

In assets/modid, add a sounds.json

In that, you would add something like this, if you have a file called testSound.ogg

{
"testSound": { "category": "block", "sounds": ["modid:testSound"], "subtitle": "modid.subtitle.testSound" }
}

You will have to look up the various categories inside SoundCategory.

Subtitle is the unlocalized string presented to those that have subtitles enable.

You then need to create a SoundHandler, that registers the sounds.

Vazkii's Psi has one you can look at: https://github.com/Vazkii/Psi/blob/98d44ba9e7852739e11515d53f6c0f21cef418d1/src/main/java/vazkii/psi/common/core/handler/PsiSoundHandler.java

Then in the various world#sound.... methods, you'd just call your SoundHandler#SoundYouWant along with the other variables (x,y,z, category, pitch, volume etc )

So, I've done everything and it's all there and working, but......

It only plays the sound when I run the command. (It does take a little for the sound to load, but that's because it's a big audio file)

I am using a playersleepevent for example:

package com.fire.testmodclient.Events;

import com.fire.testmodclient.SoundHandler;

import net.minecraft.client.Minecraft;
import net.minecraft.entity.player.EntityPlayer;
import net.minecraft.util.SoundCategory;
import net.minecraft.util.math.BlockPos;
import net.minecraft.world.World;
import net.minecraft.world.biome.Biome;
import net.minecraftforge.event.entity.player.PlayerSleepInBedEvent;
import net.minecraftforge.fml.common.eventhandler.SubscribeEvent;
import net.minecraftforge.fml.common.gameevent.TickEvent;

public class PlayerSleep {

@SubscribeEvent
public void onPlayerSleep(PlayerSleepInBedEvent event){
	final Minecraft minecraft = Minecraft.getMinecraft();
	final EntityPlayer player = event.getEntityPlayer();
	final World world = player.worldObj;

	world.playSound(player, player.getPosition(), SoundHandler.testSound, SoundCategory.MUSIC, 1, 1);

	System.out.println("Player Sleeping");

	event.setResult(EntityPlayer.SleepResult.OTHER_PROBLEM);
}

}

The command I used that worked:

/playsound testmodclient:testSound music FireControl1847

Edit: Also, how do I get the sound to follow the player, and only the player can hear?

Edit 2: Also also, is there an event for when a sound ends?

FireController1847 · August 13, 2016

1. I'm not sure how to tell the difference between EntityPlayer and EntityPlayerSP. The only way I can get EntityPlayer is event.getEntityPlayer();

2. The code below is not working:

PlayerSleepInBedEvent

package com.fire.testmodclient.Events;

import com.fire.testmodclient.Reference;
import com.fire.testmodclient.SoundHandler;

import net.minecraft.client.Minecraft;
import net.minecraft.entity.player.EntityPlayer;
import net.minecraft.entity.player.EntityPlayer.SleepResult;
import net.minecraft.util.SoundCategory;
import net.minecraft.util.math.BlockPos;
import net.minecraft.world.World;
import net.minecraft.world.biome.Biome;
import net.minecraftforge.event.entity.player.PlayerSleepInBedEvent;
import net.minecraftforge.fml.common.eventhandler.SubscribeEvent;
import net.minecraftforge.fml.common.gameevent.TickEvent;

public class PlayerSleep {

@SubscribeEvent
public void onPlayerSleep(PlayerSleepInBedEvent event){
	final EntityPlayer player = event.getEntityPlayer();
	final World world = player.worldObj;

	// world.playSound(player, player.getPosition(), SoundHandler.testSound, SoundCategory.MUSIC, 0.5F, 1F);
	// player.playSound(SoundHandler.testSound, 1, 1);

	if (event.getResultStatus() == SleepResult.OK) {
		player.playSound(SoundHandler.testSound, 1.0F, 1.0F);
	}

}

}

SoundHandler

package com.fire.testmodclient;

import net.minecraft.util.ResourceLocation;
import net.minecraft.util.SoundEvent;

public class SoundHandler {

public static SoundEvent testSound;
public static SoundEvent testSound2;

private static int size = 0;

public static void init() {
	size = SoundEvent.REGISTRY.getKeys().size();

	testSound = register(null, "testSound");
}

public static SoundEvent register(String folder, String name) {
	ResourceLocation location = new ResourceLocation(Reference.MOD_ID + ":" + name);
	SoundEvent event = new SoundEvent(location);

	SoundEvent.REGISTRY.register(size, location, event);
	size++;
	return event;
}

}

Sounds Json

{
"testSound": { 
        "category": "music", 
        "sounds": ["testmodclient:testSound"], 
        "subtitle": "testmodclient.subtitle.testSound" ,
        "stream": true
    }
}

I am trying to make a client side mod, not a regular mod, that's why I asked about the EntityPlayerSP.

I'm trying to make what my signature says.

Edit: Also, is it possible to put the sounds in folders? I'm having trouble doing that...

FireController1847 · August 13, 2016

I mean... I'm pretty sure. All I know is what you guys tell me... That's why I asked how to play custom sounds

This is what I've tried:

SoundHandler

package com.fire.testmodclient;

import net.minecraft.util.ResourceLocation;
import net.minecraft.util.SoundEvent;

public class SoundHandler {

public static SoundEvent testSound;
public static SoundEvent testSound2;

private static int size = 0;

public static void init() {
	size = SoundEvent.REGISTRY.getKeys().size();

	testSound = register(null, "testSound");
	testSound2 = register("test", "testSound2");
}

public static SoundEvent register(String folder, String name) {
	ResourceLocation location;
	if (folder != null) {
		location = new ResourceLocation(Reference.MOD_ID + ":" + folder + "\\" + name);
	} else {
		location = new ResourceLocation(Reference.MOD_ID + ":" + name);
	}

	SoundEvent event = new SoundEvent(location);

	SoundEvent.REGISTRY.register(size, location, event);
	size++;
	return event;
}

}

Sounds Json

{
"testSound": { 
        "category": "music", 
        "sounds": ["testmodclient:testSound"], 
        "subtitle": "testmodclient.subtitle.testSound" ,
        "stream": true
    },
    "testSound2": { 
        "category": "music", 
        "sounds": ["testmodclient:test\testSound2"], 
        "subtitle": "testmodclient.subtitle.testSound" ,
        "stream": true
    }
}

Okay, I'll try that.

Back to playing a custom sound: I have no idea how to do it... Please help me >.<

^ Considering my whole mod is based around this, let's let this be our main priority.

Edit: That didn't work. It says it played the sound but it's not.

Hmm... But still, the first sound works when I type the command and when I use the code it doesn't.

Please help, I need to know what the code is to play sounds!

FireController1847 · August 13, 2016

Okay.....

How do I get EntityPlayerSP instead of EntityPlayer?

Also, Quotes of what this article was/is about:

I mean... I'm pretty sure. All I know is what you guys tell me... That's why I asked how to play custom sounds

1. I'm not sure how to tell the difference between EntityPlayer and EntityPlayerSP. The only way I can get EntityPlayer is event.getEntityPlayer();

2. The code below is not working:

PlayerSleepInBedEvent

package com.fire.testmodclient.Events;

import com.fire.testmodclient.Reference;
import com.fire.testmodclient.SoundHandler;

import net.minecraft.client.Minecraft;
import net.minecraft.entity.player.EntityPlayer;
import net.minecraft.entity.player.EntityPlayer.SleepResult;
import net.minecraft.util.SoundCategory;
import net.minecraft.util.math.BlockPos;
import net.minecraft.world.World;
import net.minecraft.world.biome.Biome;
import net.minecraftforge.event.entity.player.PlayerSleepInBedEvent;
import net.minecraftforge.fml.common.eventhandler.SubscribeEvent;
import net.minecraftforge.fml.common.gameevent.TickEvent;

public class PlayerSleep {

@SubscribeEvent
public void onPlayerSleep(PlayerSleepInBedEvent event){
	final EntityPlayer player = event.getEntityPlayer();
	final World world = player.worldObj;

	// world.playSound(player, player.getPosition(), SoundHandler.testSound, SoundCategory.MUSIC, 0.5F, 1F);
	// player.playSound(SoundHandler.testSound, 1, 1);

	if (event.getResultStatus() == SleepResult.OK) {
		player.playSound(SoundHandler.testSound, 1.0F, 1.0F);
	}

}

}

SoundHandler

package com.fire.testmodclient;

import net.minecraft.util.ResourceLocation;
import net.minecraft.util.SoundEvent;

public class SoundHandler {

public static SoundEvent testSound;
public static SoundEvent testSound2;

private static int size = 0;

public static void init() {
	size = SoundEvent.REGISTRY.getKeys().size();

	testSound = register(null, "testSound");
}

public static SoundEvent register(String folder, String name) {
	ResourceLocation location = new ResourceLocation(Reference.MOD_ID + ":" + name);
	SoundEvent event = new SoundEvent(location);

	SoundEvent.REGISTRY.register(size, location, event);
	size++;
	return event;
}

}

Sounds Json

{
"testSound": { 
        "category": "music", 
        "sounds": ["testmodclient:testSound"], 
        "subtitle": "testmodclient.subtitle.testSound" ,
        "stream": true
    }
}

So, I've done everything and it's all there and working, but......

It only plays the sound when I run the command. (It does take a little for the sound to load, but that's because it's a big audio file)

I am using a playersleepevent for example:

package com.fire.testmodclient.Events;

import com.fire.testmodclient.SoundHandler;

import net.minecraft.client.Minecraft;
import net.minecraft.entity.player.EntityPlayer;
import net.minecraft.util.SoundCategory;
import net.minecraft.util.math.BlockPos;
import net.minecraft.world.World;
import net.minecraft.world.biome.Biome;
import net.minecraftforge.event.entity.player.PlayerSleepInBedEvent;
import net.minecraftforge.fml.common.eventhandler.SubscribeEvent;
import net.minecraftforge.fml.common.gameevent.TickEvent;

public class PlayerSleep {

@SubscribeEvent
public void onPlayerSleep(PlayerSleepInBedEvent event){
	final Minecraft minecraft = Minecraft.getMinecraft();
	final EntityPlayer player = event.getEntityPlayer();
	final World world = player.worldObj;

	world.playSound(player, player.getPosition(), SoundHandler.testSound, SoundCategory.MUSIC, 1, 1);

	System.out.println("Player Sleeping");

	event.setResult(EntityPlayer.SleepResult.OTHER_PROBLEM);
}

}

The command I used that worked:

/playsound testmodclient:testSound music FireControl1847

Edit: Also, how do I get the sound to follow the player, and only the player can hear?

Edit 2: Also also, is there an event for when a sound ends?

Okay.....

How do I get EntityPlayerSP instead of EntityPlayer?

If you know java you should know about casting.

FireController1847 · August 13, 2016

Thank you! I completely forgot about casting >.<! It's working great now! :D:D:D
