Pling

by haykam

Pling plays a sound when Minecraft has finished loading, so a player knows the game is ready without watching the screen.

FabricClient-side onlyMIT LicenseOpen source1.15.2 – 1.21.8

What it does

Pling plays a notification sound once the game finishes loading. A player can change the sound through the resource pack system, so the cue can match a resource pack or personal taste. The mod runs only on the client, so a server does not need it and players join without installing anything.

Key features

  1. Loading-complete sound

    A sound plays at the moment Minecraft finishes its startup process, marking the point the game is ready.

  2. Custom sound via resource packs

    The sound can be replaced with a different one through a resource pack, keeping the cue in step with a chosen style.

  3. Client-side operation

    Only a player's client plays the sound, so the cue works in single-player and on multiplayer servers alike.
