About this Mod
Music Moods
Configure how music & sound are handled.
Useful for cases where resource packs and mods replace the music immediately instead of just letting it play for any
reason.
How to Use
Music Moods requires Minecraft 1.16.5+, along with Fabric API.
For Forge 1.17 and older, you must install ObsidianUI and Architectury API as well.
On Fabric, Mod Menu may be installed to easily access the configuration screen that way as well.
Install Minecraft 1.16.5+, Fabric or Quilt, any mods that like to replace the currently playing track
and stick with the default of fading between tracks or modify the config to not let the current track be replaced.
Mod Support
Designed around the BetterNether and BetterEnd mods' built in resource packs,
you can play with any mod or resource pack that has per-biome music that replaces the current track to have it smoothly transition.
Limited support has been added for The Immersive Music Mod.
Configuration
You can edit the config in game when Mod Menu is installed by navigating to Mods, Music Moods, then hitting theConfigure... button.
Alternatively, there's the new Music & Sound options screen.
