Shut Up Narrator

by Rime

Shut Up Narrator turns off the Minecraft narrator, so text-to-speech never starts on Fabric clients.

FabricClient-side onlyAll rights reserved1.20.5 – 1.21.8

What it does

The mod removes the narrator and sets the narrator instance to empty, which leaves the narrator effectively idle. It also skips the native library check that causes a large log dump on some operating systems, since a text-to-speech setup is not needed. Only the client needs it; servers run without it. Builds cover 1.20.5 – 1.21.8 on Fabric, with 1.0.0 for 1.21.8 as the latest file, and the code is not open source.

Key features

  1. Narrator removal

    Disables the in-game narrator so spoken menu and chat readouts do not play.

  2. Empty narrator instance

    Sets the narrator instance to empty, so the narrator does nothing even if the setting is toggled.

  3. No library check

    Removes the native library check that otherwise dumps a large block of log output on some operating systems.

What the author says

Removes the narrator by setting the narrator instance to EMPTY which is effectively no-op. Also removes the library check that causes a huge log dump when the native library is not found (which happens on basically all my linux setups because I don't need a TTS).
