C4Music - C418 Music Pack

# C4Music C4Music is a lightweight resource pack that satisfyingly completes Minecraft's soundtrack with C418's unused music from Minecraft Volumes (https://c418.bandcamp.com/album/minecraft-volume-alpha) & (https://c418.bandcamp.com/album/minecraft-volume-beta). It removes the music added in updates succeeding the Nether Update and expands upon the original soundtrack with a faithful approach to the gameplay and its history. ## ❔ Why? **tl;dr** <br> In honor of preserving the original soundtrack. If you prefer it too, give this pack a try! <p> The Nether Update took an incredible path in music and this was my expectation going into 1.17. The new soundtrack was very exciting but eventually got repetitive, constantly being played in the menus and exclusively in the new biomes. </p> <p> Turns out this was somewhat intentional. The original soundtrack is being phased out by music licensed and owned exclusively by Microsoft, even though there's still a bunch of music C418 composed for Minecraft way back that has never officially made an appearance in the game. This is finally its time to shine! </p> ## 📜 Features - ### 🎶 **Gameplay Music** - ➖ __Removed__ the music from: <br> Caves & Cliffs, The Wild Update, Trails & Tales, Tricky Trials - ➕ __Added__ from C418's Albums: <br> Intro, Kyoto, Équinoxe, Ki, Chris, Flake, Excuse, Door, Droopy Likes Ricochet, Beginning, Moog City, Swarms, Peanuts, mau5cave - 🪶 **Lightweight** thanks to Packsquash - 📥 Built-in **Mod Support** for: <br> - (https://modrinth.com/mod/music-notification) <br> - (https://modrinth.com/mod/now-playing) <br> - (https://modrinth.com/mod/music-control) <br> - (https://modrinth.com/mod/mixtape/) <br> - (https://modrinth.com/mod/music-identifier) - ✨ **Extras & Add-ons** - **(https://modrinth.com/resourcepack/acclimate)** by _prototype464_ <br> It's a middleground solution to get you into changing Minecraft's soundtrack! It keeps some of the new tracks and can be used standalone or as an add-on to C4Music - (https://modrinth.com/resourcepack/c4music/version/c4nether) - Replaces everything Nether-related - (https://modrinth.com/resourcepack/c4music/version/c4discs) - Replaces the new records with C418 tracks ## 🔗 Compatibility - ### 📦 Resource Packs <br> C4Music does not have guaranteed compatibility with other music-overhauling resource packs which provide their own `sounds.json`. Priority will be given based on placement in the list of the resource pack menu, with an almost guarantee of an inconsistent state. <br> _I recommend choosing only one music resource pack to be used at a time._ To use C4Music alongside resource packs that *add* to the vanilla soundtrack and are known to *not* use the `replace` feature in `sounds.json`, **place C4Music below any such pack** to ensure all tracks are registered. Minecraft's warning that the resource pack is made for an older/newer version can be safely ignored as long as the modrinth download page lists your Minecraft version as supported. - ### 📚 Mods <br> - ❕ **Mods with built-in resource packs**. These cases should be treated as mentioned above like any other resource pack - ✅ **Content mods** usually append to the game's soundtrack with their own sound events so there shouldn't be any issues. However, if a mod is used to replace or modify music, chances are it's going to ignore C4Music - ✅ (https://modrinth.com/mod/start-the-music) is compatible. The same probably goes for (https://modrinth.com/mod/moremusic) - ❔ (https://modrinth.com/mod/music-sync) cannot be confirmed to be compatible. The resource pack however, complies fully with curration standards - ❌ (https://modrinth.com/mod/playlist) is in a grey area, as it undoes the removal part of C4Music. This means its tracks will still play naturally but alongside the new tracks. Also, they are currently not available in its menu but this is a planned feature as mentioned (https://github.com/fudgeu/playlist/issues/39) - ### 🪨 Bedrock ❌ Due to technical complications, bedrock is not supported. ## 🚩 Notes - The release channel in every release specifies the amount of testing it has gone through and the extent of its functionality. Issue reporting and feedback are greatly encouraged through (https://github.com/MopsTMC/C4Music/issues) - 🟢 **Release**: Recommended for download; there are no known issues - 🟠 **Beta**: In testing; working for the most part but not yet confirmed to be stable - 🔴 **Alpha**: Under development; proceed with caution and report any findings if possible as it would help immensely. Old versions tagged as alpha contain bugs and are kept only for archival reasons - I did not remove any of The Nether Update's soundtrack but rather expanded it and balanced it
