PartyBox

# PartyBox **PartyBox** is a client-side Fabric mod that enables live, server-controlled music and audio streaming in Minecraft. It connects your Minecraft client to an external PartyBox backend, allowing players to tune into up to **five independent live audio channels**. Each channel can play different audio simultaneously, giving players full control over what they hear. --- ## Private Access Notice PartyBox is currently intended for **private events**. Adding songs and controlling playback is restricted to approved users. Access requests: **DM @AllanStrat on Discord** --- ## Features * Compatible with **Lunar Client** * Compatible with **DiosesMC modpack** * English and Spanish language support * Live streamed audio from an external backend * Five independent audio channels * Client-side channel selector * Optional "hear all channels" mode * In-game volume control * RGB "Now Playing" display * Optional actionbar overlay * `/partybox` commands for authorized users * Token-based backend permissions * Per-token channel restrictions * Web dashboard for song management and playback monitoring * Protected upload system for approved users --- ## How It Works PartyBox uses an external backend service to stream decoded PCM audio to Minecraft clients over WebSocket. The backend plays `.ogg` files on one of five logical channels. Example: ``` partybox play judas.ogg 3 ``` This plays `judas.ogg` on Channel 3 for players listening to that channel. --- ## Player Controls Players can: * Select Channel 1–5 * Adjust volume * Switch channels in real time * Enable or disable the actionbar player * Optionally hear all active channels simultaneously --- ## Admin and Token Access Playback and uploads are protected by backend tokens. Tokens can be restricted by permissions and channel access. For example, a token may only allow playback on Channel 5, while an admin token can control all channels. --- ## Supported Actions * Play audio on a channel * Stop channel playback * Adjust channel volume * Upload `.ogg` files via the web dashboard (if permitted) --- ## Web Dashboard PartyBox includes a lightweight web dashboard: [https://allanstrat.com/](https://allanstrat.com/) The dashboard provides: * List of uploaded songs * Current "Now Playing" status across channels * Upload interface for authorized users Song uploads require a valid authorized token. --- ## Example Use Cases * Server-wide music events * Roleplay radio systems * Theme park rides and attractions * Staff announcement channels * Minigame music and alerts * Party hubs and social spaces * Ambient zones or DJ-style live events * Private event broadcasting --- ## Compatibility * **Minecraft:** Fabric * **Environment:** Client-side mod * **Backend:** External PartyBox server * **Audio Format:** `.ogg` * **Channels:** 5 independent channels --- ## Notes * PartyBox is not a voice chat replacement * An external backend server is required * Players only hear selected channels * Admin controls and uploads are restricted by tokens * Public access depends on server configuration --- ## Summary PartyBox brings live multi-channel audio streaming to Minecraft through a lightweight Fabric client and a dedicated backend server.
