Optimizing Multiplayer Audio Streaming and Compatibility

Create Harmonics is built to let entire groups of players listen to the same music together in multiplayer without bogging down server performance.

Listening in Multiplayer

1. Set up an Ethereal Record with a shared music URL and power the playback machine with rotational energy.

2. Invite nearby players to gather around your stationary base or ride along on a moving musical train or elevator.

3. Every nearby player will hear the music simultaneously in real time as long as the machine receives continuous rotational motion.

Understanding Bandwidth and Sound Compatibility

  • Client-Side Streaming: The mod does not route heavy audio data through the game server. Instead, each connected player's client streams the audio stream directly from the original online web source, keeping server bandwidth usage minimal.
  • Audio Mod Compatibility: Because the mod passes the converted audio output directly to Minecraft's built-in sound engine, it functions cleanly alongside other Minecraft sound and audio mods without channel conflicts.
