Voice chat visualizer
by exe_data
Voice chat visualizer shows, in a small overlay on screen, which nearby players are speaking and how loud their voice is, using Simple Voice Chat's voice data.
What it does
The overlay lists the players a client can hear, each with a face, name and live waveform that follows how loud they talk. It reads only received voice packets, and a player drops off the list soon after going quiet. An indicator follows the speaker's actual volume, and a few people standing around someone are enough to see who is speaking.
The overlay can be dragged anywhere on screen and aligned left, right, up or down, and its list can grow in either direction. An in-game configurator with Position, Appearance, Colors and Behavior tabs offers HSV and hex color pickers and a live preview with sample speakers. Its settings panel moves to the opposite side so the overlay never covers what is being positioned. Defaults stay minimal, and the overlay reads proximity, locational and group static audio alike.
The mod runs on Fabric only and needs nothing on the server, since only the player's client installs it. The code is under the MIT License and is open source. Files are published for 26.3 with the latest build 1.0.0+26.3, and the Versions tab lists the Minecraft versions it supports, 1.21 – 26.3 across 17 release versions.
