[Solved] Help with Block Break effect Packet

Hey guys,

Basically, all I'm trying to do is, when I use block.breakNaturally() also get it to play the sound and animation as if a player had broken it. However, I'm having a really hard time finding any documentation on what parameters each packet takes, and even which packet I should even be using...

I want everyone within range to hear it, not just one player, so I assume

Code:

((CraftServer)Bukkit.getServer()).getServer().serverConfigurationManager.sendPacketNearby(...);

But even there, I'm not sure what the parameters are.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

You want to use "Sound/Particle Effect (0x3D) " with effect id 2001. There might be a datawatcher-like thingy to use it in-code, I don't know. Otherwise just send Packet61WorldEvent, the parameters should be pretty straight-forward with the hlep of the above page.

Okay, thanks for the links, those are perfect. Definitely bookmarking those.

So, my packet looks like

Code:

Packet61WorldEvent packet = new Packet61WorldEvent(0x3D, loc.getBlockX(), loc.getBlockY(), loc.getBlockZ(), 20);

but I'm still not sure what the parameters for sendPacketNearby are.

Code:

.sendPacketNearby(0, 0, 0, 0, 0, packet);

Edit:
I assumed the Packet Id was the same as the packetData that the Packet61WorldEvent wants. But I'm not sure that's right.

I've never used packets before, so bare with me

Ah. Well, that was retarded. Okay, tested it out with sending it to a single player.

and this is the winner

Code:

Packet61WorldEvent packet = new Packet61WorldEvent(2001, loc.getBlockX(), loc.getBlockY(), loc.getBlockZ(), 20);

Any help with the parameters for sendPacketNearby would still be really helpful

Figured it out.

For anyone searching for the same thing;

Code:

sendPacketNearby(loc.getX(), loc.getY(), loc.getZ(), 30, ((CraftWorld) loc.getWorld()).getHandle().dimension, packet);

where 30 is the range and packet is whatever packet you're trying to send

Thank you a lot, this is really helpful for me.
Your way below is easier

 

just use player.getWorld().playEffect(player.getLocation(), Effect.STEP_SOUND, blockID, radius);

(btw: necropost much?)
