How to get rid of the "Level up" sound when reaching an interval of 5

Hi there, for a part of my plugin, I use the player's exp bar as energy. I made it so every second, the recieve around 10 levels. The thing is, it makes a really annoying sound when they get the levels. Is there any way to remove that sound?

 

You could always use Protocol
Lib to intercept that sound packet and cancel it

 

Is there any other way?

 

Yes redside, code ProtolLib by yourself .

(No, packet editing is the only way)

 

Well, I have no idea how to do that... I've read the protocol lib page, but I'm not sure what to do. Do I just use the API and just add the code to my plugin?

 

You can write your own function of levelling up. It should block default levelling up, and you should manually set level of player each time he should level up. Then the sound won't appear. But it is much easier to use ProtocolLib. There is nothing wrong with using a library, it's common in programming.

 

Alright, so I got ProtocolLib working, but what do I do to remove a specific sound effect, such as the LEVEL_UP sound?

Here's my code:

Code:

    @Override
    public void onEnable()
    {
        protocolManager.addPacketListener( new PacketAdapter(this, ListenerPriority.NORMAL, PacketType.Play.Server.NAMED_SOUND_EFFECT) {
            @Override
            public void onPacketSending(PacketEvent event) {
                if (event.getPacketType() ==
                        PacketType.Play.Server.NAMED_SOUND_EFFECT) {
                    event.setCancelled(true);
                }
            }
        });
