Player joins alert
by B73
Player joins alert plays a sound when someone enters or leaves a Forge server, so people already online notice the change.
What it does
Each time a player joins or leaves the world, the server plays a sound that the other players can hear. The sound is useful when a group is waiting for a friend to log in, or when a server owner wants to know who is arriving. The sounds can be customized, and a client-side setting turns them off for an individual player.
The mod runs on the server, and players join without installing it. It is published for Forge only, for 1.20.1, and the latest file is 1.0.0 from 2025-07-09, a beta build. The code is licensed under the MIT License, though the project is not open source.

What the author says
Makes a noise if a player joins or leaves. Usefull if you are waiting for someone to join your world while you do not Minecraft things. I might add customisable sounds or a way to disable it on the client side.
