Why Does My Glass Sound Like That

by person

Why Does My Glass Sound Like That changes the sound played when silk touch breaks glass, so the feedback no longer suggests the wrong tool was used.

What it does

The mod replaces the glass breaking sound for players who break glass with a silk touch pickaxe. The change follows a suggestion made by a community member, who argued that the audio should not signal a wrong tool when silk touch is in use. Breaking glass with any other tool keeps the usual sound.

The mod is a Fabric client mod, so only the player's game needs it and servers run without it. It is released under the Creative Commons Attribution Share Alike 4.0 license and is not open source. Fabric files cover 1.17.1 – 1.21.11, and the latest file, 2.1.0, targets 1.21.11.

Key features

  1. Silk touch glass sound

    Breaking glass with a silk touch pickaxe plays a different sound that is gentler on the ears.

  2. Normal sound for other tools

    Glass broken without silk touch keeps the standard breaking sound, so only the silk touch case changes.

  3. Client-side behaviour

    The change applies to the local game, with no effect on what the server runs or stores.

What the author says

Just about 3 years ago now, Dinnerbone tweeted out that he thinks the glass sound should change when you use a silk touch pick so the audio feedback doesn't make you think, quote, "crap, wrong tool".
