ProxVC

by 5Avian

ProxVC adds proximity voice chat to the Babric loader, where nearby players hear each other's microphones and the signal fades with distance.

What it does

Players join a server that runs the ProxVC server mod, and the client mod sends voice chat packets over UDP to that server, using the same address and port as the Minecraft TCP connection. Voice is only sent while the player's microphone is active, and a configurable push-to-talk option can gate transmission to a key press. The microphone icon in the bottom left of the screen shows whether the microphone is muted, not selected, or transmitting.

Better Adventure is needed alongside the mod, and Babric is the loader it runs on. HalpLibe is a required dependency. ProxVC is published as open source under the MIT License, and its source code and issue tracker are public. Client and server both need it for voice to work, but players without ProxVC can still join servers that run it, and ProxVC servers still accept clients that lack the mod. If a server has trouble, firewalls blocking UDP traffic are the usual cause.

Key features

  1. Proximity voice chat

    Voice is carried between players based on their distance in the world, so nearby players hear each other.

  2. Microphone status icon

    An icon at the bottom left shows whether the microphone is muted, not selected, or transmitting.

  3. Push-to-talk and volume

    Players can select a microphone, change voice chat volume, and enable push-to-talk from the ProxVC page in the game.

  4. Mute with a key

    Pressing M mutes the microphone without leaving the game.

No per-version build data
Modrinth lists game versions for this project (b1.7.3), but the source data has no build per game version and loader, so the compatibility grid is not shown.

Questions

Does ProxVC need HalpLibe and Better Adventure?

Yes. HalpLibe is a required dependency, and Better Adventure is needed for the mod to work on Babric.

Can players without ProxVC join a server that runs it?

Yes. Clients without ProxVC still join servers that run the mod, and ProxVC servers still accept clients that lack it, though those players receive no voice.

Why can voice not be heard on a server?

If the server has issues with ProxVC, a firewall may be blocking UDP traffic on the port shared with the Minecraft TCP server, which should be checked first.
