Hello, I’m a user of mcbbs. Could I reprint your sarhatabaot on the Forum
I will mark the original author and clearly mark your original post on the forum. Our Chinese forum website is www.mcbbs.net
hi this plugin plays the sound in all the map ? and can we put a sound ourselves and add the sound to the whole map with a command block ?
Bye and good night ^^
The plugin plays for each user independently.
You can add your own tracks by adding a .nbs file to the folder.
Hey! I was wondering if it’s possible to have an option to stop playing after the song finishes? instead of going to the next.
Thanks for this!
We want to use this for an RPG-style map but it plays all of the songs in a list rather than letting us specify which one to play by using the command.
Is there any chance we could get the ability to put the .nbs files in a sub-folder to specify the “playlist” built-in? Or at the very least, an option to put one song on loop rather than go down the entire list.
Thanks! I really appreciate it.
