Description

Music Machine

Music Machine is a client-side mod that gives you complete, granular control over Minecraft's dynamic background music.

Tired of hearing the same track play when you're building? Wish the game played music a bit more often? Want to listen exclusively to the classic C418 soundtrack? Music Machine lets you do exactly that through an easy-to-use in-game configuration menu.

🎵 Features

🎛️ Complete Track Control

The mod automatically hooks into the game's music system and provides a categorized list of every single vanilla music track (Menu, Creative, Overworld, Nether, The End, etc.). From the config menu, you can:

  • Toggle Tracks: Turn individual songs ON or OFF. Dislike a specific ambient track? Disable it forever.
  • Weight Sliders: Adjust the "weight" of each track to increase or decrease its chance of playing. Boost the odds of hearing your favorite songs!
  • Resource Pack Support: Playing with custom music from resource packs? Music Machine automatically detects and registers custom tracks from your sounds.json files so you can toggle and weigh them just like vanilla tracks!

⏱️ Music Frequency Settings

Take control of how often music actually plays in your world. The config allows you to switch between four distinct modes:

  • Never: Completely mutes all background music.
  • Sometimes: The standard vanilla pacing with long delays between tracks.
  • Often: Shortens the delays so music plays more frequently.
  • Nonstop: Music loops continuously with almost zero downtime between tracks.

🎭 Pre-Configured Profiles

Don't want to manually tweak every song? Use the built-in music profiles to instantly change the vibe:

  • Default: Plays all tracks exactly as vanilla Minecraft intended.
  • Legacy: Automatically restricts all music to only tracks composed by C418.
  • Custom: Activates your personalized settings, custom toggles, and track weights.

💿 "Now Playing" Display

When opening the configuration menu, a stylish animated display will show you the exact title and author of the song currently playing in the background.

⚙️ How to Use

  1. Install the mod on your client.
  2. Launch the game and load into a world.
  3. Press M on your keyboard (rebindable in the Controls menu) to open the music management screen.
  4. Adjust the settings to your liking—changes apply instantly!

🛠️ Compatibility & Installation

  • Supported Loaders: Available for Fabric, Forge, and NeoForge (refer to the downloads section for specific Minecraft versions). Note: Fabric users must install the Fabric API.
  • Environment: Client-Side Only. You can install this on your client and safely connect to vanilla servers, realms, or modded servers without the server needing the mod installed.
