Custom maid sound pack

All ingame maid sound effects can be customized, you can create a vanilla sound pack to replace the default maid sound pack.

But be wanred: due to the design of vanilla Minecraft, currently it is impossible for a maid to use an sound effect exclusively.

Description

• This description applies to Touhou Little Maid mod version 1.0.4 and above;
• Adding sound effects for maids requires some understanding of vanilla resource pack structure;
• Need to have basic understanding of JSON format;
• Need some basic understanding of audio frequency format conversion and editing software (such as FormatFactory or Audition)

Creation method

1. Record various dialogue sound effect, audio frequency needs to be converted to ogg format.
2. Follow the rules below to create a resource pack folder.

Resource pack structure  (No naming restriction, best to name it in English)
├─pack.mcmeta  (Description files for vanilla resource pack, fixed name and location)
│
└─assets (Fixed name and location for resource folder, under one resource folder you can have multiple resource domain folders)
    ├─my_sound_pack (Resource domain, no naming restriction, just keep it as lowercase and use underscores)
    │    ├─sounds (Sound folder, place your various sound effects here)
    │    │     ├─idle01.ogg
    │    │     └─food01.ogg
    │    │
    │    └─maid_sound.json (Sound resource pack's description file)
    │
    └─touhou_little_maid (Must be using this name)
        └─sounds.json (Sound description file)

3. Follow the following rules to write sounds.json file, here we are using vanilla's sound resource pack system, so you can reference Minecraft wiki for the script. We are showing parts of it as an example:

{
    // maid.mode.attack Fixed name, just need to mention what sound effect it is
    // Here put all of the usable sound effect name
    "maid.mode.attack": {
        // Sound effect type, usually it does not require changing
        "category": "neutral",
        // The displayed subtitle when playing the sound effect, usually it does not require changing
        "subtitle": "subtitle.touhou_little_maid.maid.mode.attack",
        // Whether to replace the previous sound effect
        // If it is false, then if there is a loaded resource pack, all the sounds will be played randomly
        "replace": true,
        // Sound files location
        // In this example many sound effects are listed, in reality one of them will be chosen to be played randomly
        "sounds": [
          // Here the path description is a bit unique
          // For example, the file location below is my_sound_pack > sounds > maid > attack1.ogg
          "my_sound_pack:maid/attack1",
          "my_sound_pack:maid/attack2",
          "my_sound_pack:maid/attack3"
        ]
    }
}

4. Follow the example below to write script for maid_sound.json file:

{
  // Sound resource pack name
  "pack_name": "Self-made Sound Resource Pack",
  // Sound resource pack author
  "author": ["baka943"],
  // Sound resource pack description
  "description": "Random sound resource pack made for fun",
  // Sound resource pack version
  "version": "1.0.0",
  // Sound resource pack creation date
  "date": "2020-03-24",
  // Sound resource pack external link, blank means no links
  "url": ""
}
