FabricClient required, server optionalAll rights reserved1.21.1 – 1.21.11

What it does

The mod adds text-to-speech support to the default chat. Each incoming line is spoken as it arrives, which lets a player keep watching the game world while still following what others are saying. Controls let the player turn speech on or off and open a settings menu.

The mod is a Fabric build for 1.21.1 – 1.21.11, with 1.2.5 for 1.21.11 as the latest file. Fabric API and Mod Menu are required. Only the client needs the mod, and a server can run without it. The code is not open source; it is released under All rights reserved.

Key features

  1. Spoken chat messages

    Incoming chat messages are read aloud through text-to-speech as they appear in the default chat.

  2. Adjustable speech controls

    Players can switch speech on or off and change the options through a settings menu.

  3. Quick settings access

    The settings menu opens from within the game, so speech can be adjusted without editing files.
