Simple Voice Chat Group Player Names
by greeenman999
Simple Voice Chat Group Player Names shows the names of group members beside their heads in a HUD while they talk in a voice group.
What it does
When a player joins a Simple Voice Chat group, the HUD lists each member with their name placed next to the player head icon. The display is kept small and stays out of the way of the main game view, so it adds little clutter during play. It enhances visibility of voice group members by rendering display names beside the group icons.
The mod is a Fabric client mod that needs Fabric API, Cloth Config API and Simple Voice Chat to run. Mod Menu is optional and adds a configuration screen for the mod's settings. Because it is client-side only, servers do not need it, and players can use it alongside Simple Voice Chat without any server changes. The code is released under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only and is open source.
