Tutorials/Sound directory

Location

The Sound Directory for Minecraft is located in:

Windows XP: C:\Documents and Settings\(Your User Name Here)\Application Data\.minecraft\resources

Windows 7: C:\Users\(Your User Name Here)\AppData\Roaming\.minecraft\resources

Sub-Folders

There are 5 sub-folders in resources. They are music, newmusic, newsound, sound, and streaming. The 'music' folder contains the older music, from Minecraft Classic, and the 'newmusic' folder contains all of the updated music. The 'newsound' folder contains all of the sound from infdev/Alpha, and the 'sound' folder contains all of the sound from Classic. These sounds can be changed, but only through a special program.

Program Thread

The 'streaming' folder contains the music run by the jukebox on Minecraft Alpha, and also some other files, with the extension .mus that I have been unable to get into. They appear to be ambient sounds, however.
