Death Sound
by 11VZ
Death Sound plays a sound on the client each time an entity dies within render distance, with a choice of sounds and a GUI for settings.
What it does
When an entity dies inside the player's render distance, the client plays a short sound tied to that death. The sound set includes Anvil, Bell, Ding, Experience, Levelup and Thunder, and the options screen selects one of them. The mod is Fabric-only, and only the client needs it; the server does not. Builds cover 1.20.6 – 1.21.3, and the latest Fabric file targets 1.21.3.
