There is no single point in using it unless it&#8217;s required by another mod.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>This mod allows to play music without game freezing and it allows to play music from Ogg files in several default ways:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>From resource location (ex: We use&nbsp;<strong>testmod:music\/beach<\/strong> and it plays <strong>\/assets\/testmod\/sounds\/music\/beach.ogg<\/strong> file)<\/li>\n<li>From URL (ex: We use <strong>any direct URL to .ogg file<\/strong>&nbsp;and it plays it). Note: while playing sounds from URL they get cached in <strong>.minecraft\/musiclayer\/music\/<\/strong> folder with the file name of MD5 of the passed URL. Also note that the first time the music gets downloaded it may play a little bit later as it plays the music directly from the URL, but next time will get from the file system (instantly). (Also launching a thread to check if the MD5 of remote and local files match, used when the file on a host gets changed)<\/li>\n<li>Customizable! This means that you can use any Input Stream to play your desired sound!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Note: This mod extracts another library to&nbsp;<strong>\/asm\/MusicLayer\/SoundLib.jar<\/strong>! This is normal and required for the MusicLayer to function.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 10px;\">That is all for the mod, nothing to add, thank you for reading this.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;\" src=\"https:\/\/i.imgur.com\/LuJJMv1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"698\" height=\"1\"><\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><strong>Permissions:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<li style=\"text-align: left;\"><strong>You&nbsp;can use this mod in your modpack.<\/strong><\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #993300;\"><strong>You are not allowed to repost this mod to other sites without providing a CurseForge\/Modrinth download link and my permission (<span style=\"color: #00ffff;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.zeith.org\/icons\/zeitheron.png\" width=\"40\" height=\"40\">&nbsp;Zeitheron<\/span>&nbsp;on Discord)<\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: left;\"><strong>You are not allowed to include this (or any other mods of the DragonForge team) in your own mod.
