Music discs cannot be renamed in Resource Packs

    • Plausible

      With the new resource packs i can change the music from the music discs but i cannot rename them so the name fits the music
      Edit 15-07-2013:
      I also found out that i cannot rename the '+x Attack Damage' tag from items, nor the 'Durability; tag in langue files

          Now possible since 1.7.4
          e.g. item.record.13.desc=C418 - 13

          More specifically, it is not the music disks themselves that cannot be renamed, it is the track names.

          The music disk item can be renamed like any other. They just retain c418's original track names no matter what music is actually loaded onto them.

          Can confirm that this problem continues to exist in 1.6.4 and snapshots.

          Yes, the music disc names being hard-coded is weird. When a custom resource pack can easily shift Minecraft to a modern or futuristic setting and change the jukebox to a communications module and the records to top-secret spy tapes or what have you, it's weird to have them still bear names like "11" and "cat" and "mall".

          Being able to change their in-game names as easily as any other item or block would allow custom map makers better options when it comes to making in-game spoken text areas without mods, and it'd let me add some Alice Cooper, Enya, Merle Haggard, Raffi, and Sabaton without having to make a total guess at which weird name applies to which song.

          This is still a valid issue. You can't edit music disc names in the language files.

          Is this still a concern in the current Minecraft version? If so, please update the affected versions in order to best aid Mojang ensuring bugs are still valid in the latest releases/pre-releases.

          Point for me is that i can rename every block/item in game with the language files but the music discs are not in there. their name is hard-coded somewhere

          Well, I would think that's because the game is searching for the sound file of (specific name) to replace the existing one. You cannot create your own files (yet, possibly, people are suggesting it).
          Personally I would suggest waiting until language is supported and then creating your own language (which is a confirmed feature), so that both the name of the disc and the lore on the disc (the subtext that remains even if you rename the disc with an anvil) have different names (there's nothing else named "mellohi", it there?)
