A Chrome extension which plays Minecraft's music randomly in the background while you browse. It also has the capacity to play other user-selected music files in the same ambient nature.
Get it on the Chrome Web Store here.
- Two options for music selection:
- Minecraft: you select the ".minecraft/assets/" folder on your computer, and the extension pulls all of the music files from the index kept there
- Folder: you select any folder on your computer, then it (and its subdirectories) are scannned for any audio files
- Adjustable volume
- Choose whether to start playing when Chrome opens
- Choose whether to play in the background when Chrome is closed
- Click the extension icon to play/pause at any time
- Random playing:
- Music is selected randomly from the selection
- No single track will play twice in a row, but tracks can repeat before the shuffle is completed
- Before a song is played, it is delayed by a random time interval, to roughly mimic the game
I have no current intention of developing this project further - this is just a suggestion. I'm always grateful for any contributions - although if enough interest was received I would develop more myself.
- Make a Firefox version
- This project was inspired by the Animal Crossing Music Extension.
- The options page uses the Bootstrap framework.
- The ES6-Promise polyfill is also used.
