Always Play — Version 1.2.3

Custom Music Discs

• Record your own tracks, vanilla background music, or music from other discs onto a music disc.
• To record a disc, rename it to Clean using an anvil, choose a track, and enter its title and composer. Repeat these steps to overwrite it.
• Supports MP3, WAV, OGG, and FLAC.
• Recorded music plays from the jukebox: it gets quieter as you move away, and its stereo position changes as you turn.
• A notification shows recording progress as a percentage. You can switch your selected slot while recording — just keep the disc in your inventory.

Music Near Jukeboxes

• Always Play smoothly fades out for a playing disc and returns when the disc stops or you move out of range.
• Adjust the detection range and fade duration in the settings, or turn this feature off.

Listen Together

• Give recorded discs to friends — they do not need to download your audio files manually.
• Tracks preload quietly in the background. If a track is still downloading when you try to insert its disc, a notification shows the progress. Insert the disc again once it is ready.
• Shared playback requires the mod on the server and for every listener. In a LAN world, the host and listeners need the mod.

Music Cache and Friends’ Music

• The new Music cache settings let you clear downloaded music for individual worlds and servers, or select specific tracks.
• Save tracks you like to Friends’ music to listen later or record them onto your own discs. Clearing the cache will not delete these saved tracks.
• When connecting, choose Friends’ world or Public server. For public servers, you can choose whether to keep downloaded music after leaving.

Notes

• Shared audio files can be up to 32 MiB and 30 minutes long.
• After restarting a world, remove and reinsert any disc left in a jukebox to start playback again.
• Public server support has not been tested yet.
