A Problem With The /tellraw Command.

I'm trying to make a command block that says this:

???: I have waited for this moment for a long time.


I have a command generator for it, because I'm bad at json, and I got this command:

Code:

/tellraw @p ["",{"text":"???: ","color":"dark_red","bold":true},{"text":"I have waited for this moment a long time.","color":"red","bold":false}]

Is anyone able to help me ?

 

Try this command:

/tellraw @p ["",{"text":"???:","color":"dark_red"},{"text":" I have waited for this moment for a long time.","color":"red"}]

 

That's not working. it says:

Code:

[15:54:34] Invalid json: malformed JSON at line 1 column 2

 

Well It's working for me... sorry but idk what to tell you

 

I got it to fix.

 

Note that now you must put quotes on everything, whereas before you didn't need to. Also check if you have all your brackets and quotes paired up and there aren't any typos. I know you got it fixed now, but just for the future :)

 

Got any help on /playsound? I apparently have the syntax right, but nothing plays.

Code:

/playsound random.explode voice @p ~ ~ ~

and it says:

[OryxWynn: played sound "random.explode"]
and then nothing plays. All of my sound is up ?

 

You didn't add specifications to it. This should work:

Code:

/playsound random.explode voice @p ~ ~ ~ 10 1 1

You forgot volume, tempo, and minimum volume.

 

Pretty sure they are optional.

 

I dunno, maybe they are set to bad defaults without those.

 

what version are you using?

 

1.10

 

i would be something like this "/tellraw @p ["",{"text":"???: ","color":"dark_red","bold":true},{"text":"I have waited for this moment for a long time.","color":"red","bold":false}]"

but for me your command worked in 1.10

 

/tellraw @a ["",{"text":"???: ","bold":true},{"text":"I have waited for this moment for a long time."}]
Maybe it doesn't fit in the text bar, try using a cmd block

I know that this thread is old, but some sounds name changed.

 

I figured it out a while ago.

 

Oh, ok.
