How to set up Simple Voice Chat¶

This guide explains how to install Simple Voice Chat on a modded Java server or a supported plugin-based server.

Requirements¶

• A server compatible with Simple Voice Chat.
• The Simple Voice Chat mod or plugin that matches your server platform.
• An available UDP port for voice chat.

Basic installation¶

1. Download Simple Voice Chat from an official source.
2. Upload the file to the right location for your server platform:
3. modded server: the mods folder
4. Bukkit/Paper plugin: the plugins folder
5. Restart the server so the config files are generated automatically.

Where the config files live¶

According to the official documentation:

• Forge/Fabric/NeoForge/Quilt: config/voicechat/voicechat-server.properties
• Bukkit/Spigot/Paper: plugins/voicechat/voicechat-server.properties

Set the voice chat port¶

The default voice chat port is 24454 UDP.

Example configuration:

port=24454

Basic usage¶

Players must also install Simple Voice Chat on the client if the platform they use requires it.

Officially documented important commands:

• /voicechat help
• /voicechat test <PLAYERNAME>

Troubleshooting¶

• Make sure the UDP port is open according to your server's allocation.
• Make sure voice chat is installed on the right side: the server, and, if needed, the client.
• If it does not work, check the voicechat-server.properties file and the server console.
