Immersive Frequencies
by armilp
Immersive Frequencies lets players talk across distance with craftable walkie talkies, using a set frequency that anyone on the same channel can hear.
What it does
Each walkie talkie is tuned to a frequency through a set frequency screen, opened with the default R key. Holding the talk key broadcasts the player's voice, and every other player tuned to the same frequency hears it, whatever their distance. Walkie talkies can be crafted from ordinary materials, so the feature is available early in a survival world without a separate progression step.
The mod covers voice communication for groups that share a server or a world: small teams in multiplayer, roleplay groups, or players who want to split a base into channels. It runs on the client and the server, and the voice layer depends on Simple Voice Chat, so voice chat must be set up on both sides first. Its frequency logic and item handling are built on Fabric API on Fabric and on the owo library across loaders.
Files exist for Fabric and Forge only, both for 1.20.1, with a 0.2-beta build for Fabric and a 0.4-beta build for Forge as the latest files. Required dependencies are Fabric API, Geckolib, Simple Voice Chat and oωo (owo-lib), and Accessories and Curios API are optional. The license is All rights reserved, so the code is not open source, although source code and an issue tracker are public.

How it compares
Walkie-Chat runs on Fabric, Forge and NeoForge across 1.19.2 – 1.21.1 under the MIT License, and it is not open source in the sense that its environment is client and server. Broadcast Radio is a Forge mod for 1.20.1 only, is open source under the MIT License, and also runs on client and server. Simple Frequency covers four loaders for 1.20 – 1.21.4, uses the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license and is server required with an optional client.
