ForgeNeoForgeServer required, client optionalMIT License1.20.1

What it does

A server-side addon for Foolish, which must be installed alongside it. Players who join the server do not need the addon, since only the server runs the boss theme logic. Files are published for Forge and NeoForge, for 1.20.1 only, with 1.0.1 as the latest file on each loader. The mod is released under the MIT License and is not open source.

Key features

  1. Boss themes in fights

    Music from boss-dropped disc tracks plays while the corresponding boss is fought.

  2. Per-boss toggle

    A command with a boss ID toggles whether the theme plays for that boss, so each one can be set on its own.

  3. Clean uninstall

    Running the foolish boss music mod uninstall function before removal resets the addon's data, and the data pack is available as well.
