How to add sounds:
Put them inside a assets/eventsounds/ folder on your server (you have to create that folder).
Then add them to the configuration and update your resource-pack (/es reload).
Note: Changing the resource-pack requires the minecraft-server to restart! This is a limitation of minecraft servers themself, not of the plugin or Sponge!
I know it, but I totally forgot about it… Given that the resource-pack setting is prompt by default that would always show that prompt on join tho, regardless of whether the pack changed or not, I don’t know if that’s better on the player side. For requesting the default resource-pack again there’s /es.
I think the best way would be a configuration option.
Edit: I forgot that the prompt asks for “always/never”, so there shouldn’t be a problem
I wouldn’t know any way vanilla would handle audio streams like that.
This plugin generates a resource pack from oggs on the server, uploads that to a ftp server so players can download that resource pack.
In case you know a way to stream audio without a resource pack in vanilla I’d happily take a look at that.
Yeah I came to the same conclusion… Its a shame that resource packs are archives. The only way I’ve been able to inject music other the resource packs is client mods. I will definitely let you know if I find a way though!
