⬇ Download on ModrinthNOTE: This project is not officially associated with Creative Engineering or Aaron Fechter. Billy Bob, Looney Bird, and other Rock-afire characters are his property; this is just a fan project. This mod does not include any showtapes or audio; you must provide your own tapes in the RR Engine format.
Your browser does not support the video tag.
Showbiz is focused on bringing the Rock-afire Explosion to life in Minecraft, as well as allowing you to make your own fan-made singing animatronics through a friendly resourcepack / datapack addon system.
The Rock-afire Explosion, which this mod is based on, is an animatronic band that ran in a restaurant called Showbiz Pizza Place around the 1980's. We admire the Rock-afire, so we thought to create a Minecraft mod to celebrate them!
Showbiz currently includes:
- Complete RR Engine show playback (rshw, fshw, wp5shw, cshw)
- Redstone-compatible data playback
- The Rock-afire Explosion
- The Wolf Pack 5
- Optional integration with Computer Craft (CC: Tweaked)
- Full multiplayer support
This mod also allows for the ability to add your own animatronics through creating a resource pack + data pack, and providing the mod with your model and motion mapping. This can give you endless possibilities to create your own characters, new shows or even costumes for your favourite Rock-afire character!
We encourage creativity wherever possible and can't wait to see what you create! You can also create a dedicated Modrinth page for you addon and package it into a mod, just make sure to link back to Showbiz as a dependency!
We are also officially partnered with The FNaF Mod to bring you a dedicated addon with their unique style of animatronics, and we hope you enjoy playing with both casts! Make sure to check out their addon here!
For more information on this system, please look at our documentation which is linked below!
