midibanks-revival
This plugin is a revival of the plugin at this thread.Originally created by Protected.
I thank him for originally creating it but am angered by his complete removal of the plugin without leaving any notification for its fans.
The original plugin allowed you to play midis in Minecraft without a client mod using noteblocks and correctly formatted signs.
The format of the signs is like this.
- first line: blank
- second line: [midi]
- third line: filename, must be short enough to fit on the line without the .mid extension.
- fourth line:Special perimeters, Such as start on chunk load and looping "A,L, and a few more I need to search for in the code."
examples:
Micheal Jackson's beat it.mid
- blank
- [midi]
- mjbi
song of storms.mid
- blank
- [midi]
- sos

Permission Nodes:
midibanks.can-use
midibanks.can-create
midibanks.cmd
My hopeful to-do list:
- maybe create a client version.
get more of the commands working- Just removed the non working onessomehow figure out how to add permissionsmaybe change the command to prevent conflictscommand is now midibanks- clean up the messy code
check the configuration file- included inside of jar also saved upon plugin load.
Optional Dependencies:
Vault
Official repo of the plugin:
http://midibanks-revival.googlecode.com/
this contains both the regular version and the bukkitforge version.
if you are having trouble with getting the midis to play open them with an external program such as Anvil Studio
the midis go in the same folder as the config file.
Bugs here and there, but that's the fun of reviving a dead plugin.
I honor you for reviving this plugin, and I wish you the best of luck.

This plugin is broken atm, you need to wait for a fix.
doesnt work,
where i have to put the mid in? /plugins/midibank/ ?
SEVERE error on 1.4.6: http://pastebin.com/J2RzzuVm
@Scrandre
it will come once i understand how the faces were changed. version 2.0 is in development I'm just trying to keep backwards compatibility while also figuring out how this new blockface change broke the block detection. this is basicly what broke my plugin.
For those of you who don't understand what this means. It basically means that they took the worlds compass and flipped it 90(degrees) to the right. The fix requires very well understanding of the Cartesian grid and geometry in general and the first one I don't have and the second one I slept though. I am also getting different results in my lab tests while you guys can get the signs to work I cant get them too.
The signs work but notes don't play. I sometimes get this error in the console:

I can't wait to test this, I have an alpha server with many pre-built banks! All I got to do is pop in those midis. Thanks you for your work on this project, you've made minecraft much more enjoyable for me! ^^
When fix will come?
just took a look at all the changes and i think i may have found my problem. http://dl.bukkit.org/compare/craftbukkit/01479_1.3.2-R3.0/craftbukkit/01637_1.4.5-R0.3/ it says the block faces were changed and that's what this plugin uses so i must see how it changed them.
@Hsking11
that error you posted is WorldGuard. it seems that they may have changed something dealing with how the noteblocks are selected. ill need to look into it.
Just a heads up to the people who are using this with dev builds of bukkit from #2502 and onwards it won't work. - well I only tested dev builds #2502,#2510,#2513,#2514,#2515 so I'm just assuming builds from #2502 onwards isn't compatible with the plugin atm or am I doing something wrong?
I got the same thing as rustyshakelford2 did. It won't play notes, but the signs work.
Also got this error after 10-15secs starting the server but I think its has to do with worldguard and nothing related with midibanks. (Running craftbukkit #2515)I'll paste it here anyways?
[Ok Cool I edited it out.. less spam for the page]
Anyways.. I love this plugin :3
So I'm reverting back down to craftbukkit #2501 or #2500.

Thanks :D!
This is a good source of .midi's: http://www.vgmusic.com/
Works perfect in Bukkit 1.4.5-R0.2beta
Just a little bit inexact cause of server laggs, if there are a lot of user in the near. But it sounds okay.
Thank you for this amazing plugin :)
@rustyshakelford2
are there any errors in the server console?
In bukkit 2491 the plugin loads and the signs work, but no notes play.
@deleted_9935739 the midi may be incompatible. i would suggest opening it in something like Anvil Studio and using the repair option. then slowly strip it to the minimum number of channels needed to play the song. that's how i do it.
Seems to be working fine for a few midis but on some the whole song plays on one noteblock or it just doesn't play all the notes. Bug or the song?
@Rprrr @deleted_9935739
just tested 1.9 on 1.4.4-R0.1 . it seems to work just fine and still has backwards compatibility with 1.2.5
Awesome! Hopefully you'll be able to update this to 1.4.4 soon! Good luck!
