Playsound_Pro - 音频播放专业版
by Summer_XTJL
Playsound_Pro is a Forge mod that extends the vanilla playsound command with distance attenuation, looping playback and audio files read straight from a resource pack.
What it does
Playsound_Pro replaces the vanilla playsound command with an enhanced version. Sounds can be played once or looped, and the volume adjusts as a player moves closer to or farther from the sound's position. Area playback lets a single sound cover a defined region, with the volume changing according to where each player stands inside it. Audio is calculated independently for each player, so the behavior holds up in multiplayer.
Audio files are supplied through a resource pack. WAV files are placed in the audio directory of the pack's assets folder under the mod's namespace, and the mod reads them directly without any conversion step. Only the .wav format is supported, and file names are kept to English letters and numbers. Standard WAV audio parameters are accepted. The interface and messages are available in English and Chinese.
Sounds respond to the sound category sliders in the game's options. The affected categories are master, music, jukebox and records, weather, blocks, hostile mobs, neutral mobs, players, ambient and voice. Playsound_Pro is also used together with another mod, a companion that the author text does not name in full.
Key features
Enhanced playsound command
The command adds distance attenuation and looping playback on top of the vanilla playsound behavior.
Area audio playback
A sound can be tied to a defined area, and its volume changes dynamically based on each player's position inside it.
Resource pack audio
WAV files are read directly from a resource pack, so custom sounds need no separate registration.
Sound category controls
Playback follows the in-game volume settings for each sound category, with a flag for always playing at maximum volume.
