Meret

by ModFest

Meret lets mapmakers assign music to specific areas of an adventure map, overriding the standard situational tracks while those areas are entered.

FabricClient and serverCC0 1.0 UniversalOpen source1.21.1 – 26.1

What it does

Mapmakers define music override areas in a world, and the track assigned to an area plays while a player is inside it, replacing the usual situational music. Music in the in-game menus still plays as normal. The mod requires Area Lib and Fabric API, both of which must be installed for it to run.

Meret runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. It is published for Fabric only, for 1.21.1, 1.21.7, 1.21.8 and 26.1, with 0.4.0-26.1+26.1 as the latest file, released 2026-04-30. It is released under CC0 1.0 Universal and is open source.

Key features

  1. Soundtrack areas

    Mapmakers can place areas that play a chosen soundtrack, giving each part of an adventure its own music.

  2. Situational music override

    Inside a marked area, the normal situational tracks are suppressed so the assigned music plays instead.

  3. Menu music unchanged

    Music in the in-game menus keeps playing as usual, so only the world music is affected.

Questions

Does Meret need Area Lib?

Yes. Area Lib is a required dependency, and Fabric API is required as well. Both must be installed next to Meret.
