Tool for adding lots of custom music discs to Minecraft

Infinite Music Discs

A graphical app for adding lots of custom music discs to Minecraft. Creates a resourcepack to add new music tracks and disc textures, and a datapack with custom logic to play the new music discs. An example disc texture and a pack.png are provided alongside the app, to get you started.

Written in Python with a PyQt5 frontend; compiled into runnable binaries with pyinstaller.

Supported Operating Systems

• 64-bit Windows
• 64-bit Linux

How to Install

Windows:

Download imd-gui-win64.zip from the latest release, under Assets. Extract the .zip to a work folder and run the executable inside. Follow the video instructions at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zDXSKYvJXmg to generate a datapack/resourcepack pair; the datapack and resourcepack will be created in the same folder as the executable.

Linux:

Download imd-gui-linux64.tar.gz from the latest release, under Assets. Extract the tarball to a work folder, make imd-gui executable, and run it:

$ tar -xvf imd-gui-linux64.tar.gz
$ chmod +x imd-gui
$ ./imd-gui

Follow the video instructions linked above to generate a datapack/resourcepack pair.

Building from Source

The build environment is set up for Windows and Linux, though pyinstaller is cross-platform so you could build on macOS too.

Windows:

1. Clone this repository.
2. Install Python 3, 64 bit.
3. Add Python to your PATH environment variable.
4. Open a command prompt in the infinite-music-discs directory and run pip install -r requirements.rc.
5. Try running main.pyw to verify the application works in your environment. Make sure you can generate a pack, convert files to .ogg with pyffmpeg, etc.
6. Run build.bat to compile the source into a Windows executable binary.
7. Run your executable! Note that your antivirus may flag your executable as suspicious because it's an unknown, unsigned program. You should be safe to ignore this warning, but of course, always use caution and common sense when ignoring the warnings of your antivirus.

Linux:

1. Clone this repository:

$ git clone https://github.com/TeamTernate/infinite-music-discs

2. Run the build script. If dependencies like python3 are not installed, it may require sudo privileges to install them:

$ cd infinite-music-discs
$ ./build.sh

Supported Build Linux distributions:

Debian-based:

• Debian
• Ubuntu (all flavors)
• Elementary OS
• Sparky Linux

Others:

• Fedora (and spins)
• Arch Linux (and all Arch-based distros, such as Manjaro)

Notes for Linux users:

• If your distribution ships Python 3 by default, then you don't need to do anything prior to running the script.
• The script will auto-install all the required dependencies. You might need to provide your sudo password.
• A tmp directory will be created (inside the cloned repository) where temporary files will be stored.
