MIDI Instruments [WIP]

What does it do?

This mod allows you to play MIDI files using in-game instruments, synchronized for everyone on the server. Other players will hear your music even if they don't have a single MIDI file!

⚠️ WORK IN PROGRESS ⚠️

This mod is a labor of love developed in my spare time. Expect bugs and occasional note-skipping. Very heavy MIDI might cause a freeze.

If you are using Soundproof walls 2.0 add "notes" in xml ignored sounds (For walls muffling) [hr][/hr]

How it Works (Streaming)

Only the person playing the music needs to have the .mid files installed locally. The notes are streamed to all other players in real-time. Other players will hear your music even if they don't have a single MIDI file!

Features

• Your character automatically holds the instrument while playing.
• Left-click to temporarily release your instrument to interact with items — the character will resume playing automatically later.
• Working perks for instruments while you are playing.
