SoundSight

by hayouni

SoundSight is a client-side Fabric mod that tags threats on screen so players who cannot hear them still get the warning.

What it does

Survival threats are often announced only by sound, which leaves deaf and hard-of-hearing players, and anyone playing muted, without a warning. SoundSight shows visual threat warnings instead. Enhanced subtitles recolor the vanilla subtitles, filter repeated entries and keep critical ones on screen longer. A marked hazard gets a distinct striped tape strip, so a creeper, TNT, a ghast fireball or a skeleton can be spotted at a glance.

Flashing effects are capped at 3 Hz to follow WCAG 2.3.1, and a Reduced mode switches them to a 1 Hz static display. Colorblind palettes for deuteranopia, protanopia, tritanopia, high contrast and monochrome keep the warnings readable, and one-click presets switch between the Deaf/Hard-of-hearing, Muted and Minimal setups. The mod works only in the interface layer and only shows world hazards from mobs, never other players, so it coexists with Sodium and Iris and does not touch minimaps such as Xaero's. The mod is open source under the MIT License, and its source code is public. Installation needs only Fabric, and the latest file, 0.1.0, targets 26.2.

Key features

  1. Visual threat tags

    Dangerous mobs and world hazards receive an icon, so their position is visible without any sound.

  2. Hazard markers

    Creepers, TNT, ghast fireballs and skeletons are marked with a distinct hazard tape strip.

  3. Enhanced subtitles

    Vanilla subtitles are recolored, repeated entries are filtered, and critical lines stay visible longer.

  4. Flashing limits

    Flashing is capped at 3 Hz, and a Reduced mode uses 1 Hz static indicators instead.

  5. Colorblind palettes

    Deuteranopia, protanopia, tritanopia, high-contrast and monochrome palettes change color only, never severity or shape.

  6. Policy setting

    A permanent setting can be set by the server owner so that the mod's visuals stay the same across play sessions.

Questions

Does SoundSight need to be installed on the server?

No. The mod is client-side only, so only the player's client needs it, and servers run without it.

Which loader and game version does SoundSight use?

SoundSight is published for Fabric only, and its latest file, 0.1.0, targets 26.2.

Does SoundSight change minimaps or other rendering?

No. It works only in the interface layer, leaves world rendering alone and does not touch minimaps such as Xaero's.

Will SoundSight disable the game's subtitles?

If another subtitle mod is installed, SoundSight's subtitle module turns itself off automatically.

What the author says

See the danger you can't hear. A creeper behind you doesn't care why your sound is off. SoundSight turns survival-critical audio into visual threat warnings — designed for deaf and hard-of-hearing players, useful for anyone who plays muted, mid-podcast, or headphones-in-music-up.
