## Installation & Compatibility

1. Install the datapack and place it within your world's datapacks folder.

2. REQUIRED: Install the corresponding resource pack and place it into your resourcepacks folder.

3. Launch the game, enable the resource pack, and run the command /reload once in your world to finalize the installation. On a server, all players must have the resource pack installed.

• Minecraft Version: Created for and tested on Minecraft versions 1. 21 to 26.x. Functionality on other versions is not guaranteed. Bugs may be present, and I will try to work those out as feedback is given.
• Future Support: This datapack is actively being developed, with plans for future updates and version support.

## Key Features:

• Fully Interactive Players: Open the lid, place the vinyl, spin the turntable, and gently move the tonearm to start the music.
• Variable RPM Playback: Adjust the turntable speed between 33, 45, and 78 RPM using the dedicated RPM switch. Each record must be played at its designed RPM to sound correct; otherwise, it will be too fast or too slow!
• Interactive Tracklists: Right-click a playing LP to see its full song list in chat. If you are close enough, click any song title to play it instantly.
• Customizable Colors: Craft your record player and then change it from its default white to any of Minecraft's dye colors! Simply right-click the record player with a dye of your choice.
• Album Art & Covers: Each vinyl is crafted with its own unique cover, perfect for collecting.
• Show Off Your Collection: Proudly display your vinyl records and their unique covers in item frames to showcase your musical taste!
• Two Vinyl Formats:
• - 7" Singles (45 RPM): Collect and craft a 7" single for every music disc currently in Minecraft!
• - 12" LPs (33 RPM): A larger format featuring two sides (A and B) for extended listening, including C418's iconic Volume Alpha and Volume Beta LPs.
• Advanced Playback Controls: Use the navigation buttons to rewind or skip through the music.
• Realistic Mechanics: Songs progress automatically, and when the final song on a record's side finishes, the tonearm automatically moves to the center, and the turntable stops spinning.
• Multiplayer Friendly: Share the listening experience with your friends!

## Crafting Recipes

All crafting recipes are attached in the gallery, though they are described here:

• Record Player: Place a jukebox in the center of the crafting table, place any plank on the right and left edges, line the corners with iron ingots, place redstone dust on the bottom edge, and a diamond on the top edge.
• 7" Singles: To craft any of the standard Minecraft singles, place their corresponding music disc into the center of the crafting table and surround it with paper. This will craft the cover that contains the record.
• Minecraft - Volume Alpha LP: Place a Grass Block in the center of the crafting table and surround it with any C418 music disc.
• Minecraft - Volume Beta LP: Place Netherrack in the center of the crafting table and surround it with any C418 music disc.

When giving an LP cover or record, make sure the ID has _a or _b at the end to signify which side to give.

Example: /function record:give/record {id:"alpha_a"}

Author sets can be given by using the command:
