Music HUD Plugin FAQ

10 questions players actually ask, answered.

How do I start using Music HUD Plugin after installing it?
Open your in-game settings menu and look for the Music HUD Plugin options. Click the download button to automatically fetch the required API server files—if you're running a dedicated server, you'll need to download and run the NetEase Cloud Music API Enhanced file separately first.
Why can't other players hear the music I'm playing?
Make sure the API server is running properly on your machine or dedicated server, and that all players have the plugin installed. The music only syncs across the server if the backend connection is active; check your settings menu to confirm the download completed successfully.
Can I play music from my own files instead of NetEase Cloud Music?
No, Music HUD Plugin only works with NetEase Cloud Music. You can search for songs, albums, and artists through the in-game menu, or log in with your NetEase account to access your saved playlists.
How do I log in to my NetEase Cloud Music account?
Open the Music HUD Plugin menu in-game and select the login option—it will display a QR code that you scan with your phone to authenticate. Once logged in, you can browse and request songs from your personal playlists directly in the game.
What happens if everyone stops requesting songs?
If you've set up a background playlist in the server settings, it will play automatically. Otherwise, the music will stop until someone requests a new song through the in-game search menu.
Do I need to download large music files to my computer?
No, Music HUD Plugin streams audio directly from NetEase Cloud Music, so you don't need to store song files locally. This keeps your game folder small and ensures everyone hears the same high-quality stream.
Why are the lyrics not showing up on my screen?
Make sure the lyrics display is enabled in your Music HUD Plugin settings. Not all songs have lyrics available on NetEase Cloud Music; if a track doesn't have them, the player will show the song name and artist instead.
Can I see who requested the current song?
Yes, the on-screen player displays the name and face of the player who picked the current track, so everyone knows who to thank or blame for the song choice.
Does this mod affect server performance or lag?
Music HUD Plugin streams audio without impacting game performance since it doesn't save files locally or process heavy computations. The only requirement is a stable internet connection to the NetEase API server.
Can I remove the music player from my screen?
Yes, you can toggle the on-screen display in the settings menu, though the music will continue playing on the server. You can also customize the player's position and size to fit your preference.
