Threat Music Mod FAQ
10 questions players actually ask, answered.
How do I know if the mod is working?
Load into a world and listen for music changes as you move between biomes or encounter mobs. You should hear Rain World tracks instead of Minecraft's default ambient music, and the music should intensify when hostile mobs are nearby.
Why is there no threat music even though mobs are around?
Threat music only triggers when certain entities are within range of the player. Check that hostile mobs are actually close enough and that your biome is configured to use threat music in the mod's settings.
Can I use this mod on multiplayer servers?
Yes, because the mod runs client-side only, it won't cause conflicts on servers and each player hears their own threat music independently without affecting others.
How do I assign different music to a specific biome?
Open the biome configuration file and match your target biome to a Rain World region or custom region name. The mod will then play that region's music whenever you're in that biome.
What do I do if a modded mob isn't triggering threat music?
Most modded entities are compatible by default, but if a specific mob doesn't work, check the mod's configuration to see if that entity type needs to be manually added to the threat detection list.
Can I add my own custom music tracks?
Yes, create a custom region by adding a JSON file with region settings and placing your .ogg audio files in the designated folder, then reference that region in your biome configuration.
Does this mod affect performance or FPS?
No, the mod is lightweight since it only manages audio on the client side and doesn't add entities or blocks to the world.
Why does raid music sound different from threat music?
Raids currently use a dedicated raid theme (set to Metropolis by default) which is separate from the standard threat music system to create a distinct audio experience during raids.
How do day and night variants work?
Certain regions have different music tracks for day and night cycles. The mod automatically switches between these variants based on the current time in your world.
Can I disable threat music for specific biomes?
Yes, configure the biome settings to assign it to a silent or ambient-only region, or set the threat detection to off for that biome in the configuration file.
