Sound

One of MCPI-Reborn's main modifications is a sound-engine since MCPI doesn't include one by default¹. However, it can't be used out-of-box because MCPI doesn't contain any sound data and MCPI-Reborn can't include it because of copyright.

MCPE's sound data can be extracted from any MCPE v0.6.1² APK file, just place its libminecraftpe.so into ~/.minecraft-pi/overrides and you should have sound!

1. The mute button is just leftover code from MCPE, it doesn't actually do anything in un-modded MCPI, however it is connected to MCPI-Reborn's sound-engine. ↩︎

2. This isn't a hard limit, an MCPE v0.8.1 APK would probably work, but don't rely on it. ↩︎
