Death Sounds Plugin

Plugin category: Death Messages/Sounds

Minecraft version: 1.8.9

Suggested name: Custom Death Sounds

What I want:

Hi, I need a plugin that will play a death sound to everybody upon someone's death. I've tried making a skript for this, but in the console, it says "%loop-player% is too far away to hear the sound"

I host my own UHC's, but I don't have a sound that plays when someone dies, and I cannot find a plugin that will do just that. Can someone help me out? I'd like to be able to change it to whichever sound and have it be an easy process. Thank you <3

Ideas for commands: Only a config, no commands

Ideas for permissions: No permissions as there would just be a config

When I'd like it by: Next few days, if possible

You can take a look at my plugin EventSounds. Although it currently has not been updated in a while, I will be updating it to have an API and some other features soon.

 

That plugin seems a little difficult to use, but thank you for recommending it.

 

PLEASE, someone take this on! I've been needing something like this for super super long, and to no avail I could not find what I wanted!

I would take @Zombie_Striker's suggestion.
Take a look at EventSounds first and if you really can't figure out how to work it then i make it for you.

 

I am not good at figuring out how plugins work.. so I really am very confused.

 

There is documentatation ...

 

I loaded the plugin onto my server and it wasn't working ...

I don't know, I kind of feel stupid for even asking this if I'll just be patronized for not knowing how to work plugins. Just delete the thread while you're at it.

 

@calimystic
We are here to help you. There should be an easy fix, or atleast an explanation as to why it does not work. (Either way, I would need to know so I can see if I can fix the problem in the next update)

If you look at the console, are there any errors? Does the server print out that the plugin has been enabled? If you use the command /es, does it bring up a menu?

 

An "EventSounds" folder is not in my plugins directory, but the plugin itself is; however, when I execute the command "/es", a blank menu does come up.

 

@calimystic
Are there any errors in the console? Although it should appear right when you send the command, there may also be errors when the server starts up. Either way, I would need to see those errors (if they exist) in order to know what is happening.

 

There are no errors in the console.

Guess there is an error.

 

Oh my, that would just be terrific!!!

Looking back at my old code, a lot of stuff was a mess. Most likely, line 59 either has to do with the /Sounds/ directory or with reading the files in that directory. I am still working on the new update (which is basically an entire re-write because of how bad the code is), so I will keep this issue in mind.

@calimystic
I have updated the plugin and it is now being reviewed. The new version should no longer have that problem. You can download the file using the link here (Look for version 2.0.0): EventSounds

Now, once you download the plugin, you will need to make one small change in order to have the death sounds defaulted to whatever sound you want. Please do the following:

1. Install the new plugin and restart the server.
   
2. Go into the /plugin/eventsounds/ folder. You should now see a file called "Default_Die.txt". Open that file.
3. The first line should be "none". Replace this with the name of the sound you want to be played (e.g. "pop" or "entity_cow_hurt")
4. Save the file and restart the server.

After this, all players that join the server after this will play that sound when they die.

EDIT by Moderator: merged posts, please use the edit button instead of double posting.

 

The "EventSounds" folder was put into my plugins folder, thankfully, but I do not see a file called "Default_Die.txt" In that folder, I see another folder called "Sounds" which has nothing in it, and a "config.yml" which also has nothing in it. I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong.

 

@calimystic
Are you running this server on an external hosting site? If so, this is an issue with you and the hosting site *(they may not allow other text files to be created, something that is needed for my plugin to work).

If not, and this is on your home computer, are there any errors in the console? Also, can you Manually create the files?

 

I host it on my home computer. Also, yes, I tried to manually create the files, and it would not work.

Update: http://pastebin.com/UFHfzZKn Error

I tried many times to make sure that I was following your directions clearly, but when I manually add a new sound, the menu goes blank again and the plugin won't work. I tried "mob.wither.spawn" "mob_wither_spawn" "wither.spawn" and so on for the sound. I also tried putting "Default_Die.txt" (which I manually created) in the "Sounds" folder.

 

Can you make a custom Plugin that is specifically for these death sounds? Like one where you can choose the sound from any in game sound and change the pitch and stuff for it. This plugin you put wont work for my server, and it seems like Calimystic could be having the same problem. @Zombie_Striker can you try this? or anybody can take this on.

 

I tried making something that you said, sounds can be changed in the config.yml.

Here's the list of sounds that you can change too.

@terrornights
What do you mean by "wont work"? Do you mean that none of the files are being generated? If so, please PM me the console log, what files do exist, and anything else useful so I can fix these problems.

 

Thank you so much for taking your time to create this plugin, that was very nice of you But, I loaded it onto my server, and I got a couple of errors: http://pastebin.com/1UXQtYqV

 

@calimystic have you made sure you have typed the sound in correctly?
An example :

 

Yeah, I typed it in like that.

 

Try it this way.

 

Just tried and no good results.

 

@calimystic Could you post the console error and your config.yml here?

 

Little hint: You're using the new sound names (the sound enum has changed in 1.9 or 1.10), he requested a plugin for 1.8.9, the sound names are different
