Mic Chat Output
by scrambles125
Players who want their in-game chat to answer spoken words can use Mic Chat Output, a NeoForge mod that listens to the microphone and posts preset replies.
What it does
The mod runs on NeoForge 1.21.1 and listens for phrases spoken into a microphone, matching them against a list of trigger-and-response pairs before showing the configured message in the local chat. Speech recognition is handled by the Shriek mod, which detects the configured words and phrases, and Architectury API is also required. Speech processing stays on the local machine.
Trigger-and-response entries are added, removed and edited in the in-game configuration screen opened from the Mods menu, so no files need to be changed by hand. The mod is built around horror-style reactions, such as a preset line answering a spoken greeting like "Hello Minecraft". Responses are shown only on the player's own client, though the mod can also send chat messages that other players on a server will see.
Only the player's client needs the mod to be installed, while a server can run without it. Files exist for 1.21.1 only, with the latest NeoForge build at 1.0.0, released on 2026-07-23. The mod is released under the All rights reserved license and is not open source.
