What does Music Box add?

Warning!

Music Box won't be updated for 1.21+ versions in favor of VinURL, if you want a similar experience I really recommend this one.

It is a fork of the Fabric mod URL Music Discs and VinURL, ported to Forge with some improvements and new features.

Recipe

Features

Right click with a custom music disc to open the configuration screen.
Paste a YouTube link to play the music.
Set up the Duration, in seconds (optional) to make it redstone compatible.
Set a Name for the music disc.
You can also set a Radius, by default it is 30 blocks. (Maximum 999 blocks)

After a disc is saved it can get a random texture out of 40 different variants!
And more to be added in the future!

Saving the disc by pressing esc will maintain it editable, but if you save it with enter it will be locked and signed by you, and can't be edited anymore.

If you have a locked disc you want to recycle, you can always use it to craft a fresh new one!

Secret Features

Click to reveal

You can change the song **Pitch** by ading `&pitch=1.5` at the end of the URL. The pitch value can be any number between 0.5 (scary low) and 2.0 (chipmunk high). The default pitch is 1.0. Music Box Pitch setup

It will only be changed back to the default pitch if you change the pitch to 1.0, as removing the pitch parameter will not change it back to the default pitch.

Music Box also adds secret music discs that can be obtained in random loot chests, or dropped by mobs. These discs are not craftable, and can only be obtained by luck.

Future

The mod is still in development, as of now it only works with YouTube links, but I am planning to add support for other platforms like Discord, SoundCloud, and more. If you have any suggestions, or found bugs, please let me know.

New disc variants textures are always welcome if you have new ideas!
