Create: Expanded Steam Whistles
by deanosaur75
Expanded Steam Whistles lets the Create Steam Whistle play a wider pitch range, covering five octaves, for players building musical contraptions.
What it does
An Extended Steam Whistle block is added by this addon and operates like the standard steam whistle from Create, except its pitch spans five octaves. Higher and lower notes than usual become playable, which allows more detailed melodies and closer recreations of pipe organ songs. Files are published for Forge and NeoForge, for 1.20.1 and 1.21, and the client and server must both run it.
Key features
Extended pitch range
The Extended Steam Whistle reaches a pitch range of five octaves, far beyond the standard whistle.
Same operation as the normal whistle
The block is placed and driven like Create's regular Steam Whistle, so no new mechanics must be learned.
Pipe organ style melodies
The wider range lets builders recreate pipe organ songs and write more detailed melodies.
