One of the features of the mod is addition of battle music, which is triggered by certain events like starting a battle, or walking into an area. As of Release 1.3.3, there is a possibility of having music play randomly every 7 to 14 minutes, whilst exploring the End.
How to add music[]
The music track has to be either in ogg or wav format! If it's not, it has to be converted (ogg is prefered as the files are much smaller). Once it has the correct format, it can be put either into the mod file to make modpack distribution easier, or in a special folder for local playlists.
Tracks are separated into group based on their prefix. Each file needs to follow this convention, otherwise it will not be accepted by the mod!
| File prefix | Event (mob, area...) | Example |
|---|---|---|
| dragoncalm_ | Ender Dragon (calm stage) | dragoncalm_Author_TrackName.ogg |
| dragonangry_ | Ender Dragon (angry stage) | dragonangry_Author_TrackName.ogg |
| tower_ | Dungeon Tower | tower_Author_TrackName.ogg |
| firefiend_ | Fire Fiend | firefiend_Author_TrackName.ogg |
| enderdemon_ | Ender Demon | enderdemon_Author_TrackName.ogg |
| random_ | Exploring the End | random_Author_TrackName.ogg |
Adding to the mod file[]
Go to .minecraft/mods/ folder where you installed the mod, and open HardcoreEnderExpansion.zip with an archiving program. Navigate to assets/hardcoreenderexpansion/music/ and put your music files inside that folder. You can also remove or modify any of the official music tracks. Be also aware that when you update the mod, you will also replace all the changes you made!
Adding to the folder[]
Navigate to the .minecraft/config/HardcoreEnderExpansionMusic/ folder (if it doesn't exist, run Minecraft with the mod and then close it). You can put your music files into that folder and they will stay across mod updates.
Official music tracks[]
All following tracks were created by qwertygiy and are not a subject to YouTube's copyright detection system, so you are free to have music enabled when recording a video with the mod.
