Hums

Through the use of Datapacks, it is possible to implement custom soundscapes! (Also known as "Hums")

Requirements

A Resource Pack
A Data Pack

Resource Pack

Within your resourcepack, create custom sounds, you can learn how to do this here

Once you have completed this step, you are done with the resource pack side of things!

Data Pack

File Structure

Console patterns follow the following structure:

* data
    * [your_datapack_pack_namespace]
        * tardis_refined
                * hums
                    * [hum_name].json

Here is an example entry from the mod, you may edit to your needs!

{
  "ambient_sounds": [
    "minecraft:ambient.crimson_forest.additions",
    "minecraft:ambient.crimson_forest.mood"
  ],
  "hum_sound": "minecraft:ambient.crimson_forest.loop",
  "id": "tardis_refined:crimson_forest",
  "name_component": "{\"color\":\"gold\",\"text\":\"Crimson Forest\"}"
}
