How to Add Voice Chat to Your Minecraft Server

Here's how to add voice chat to your Minecraft server. This guide will cover installing and configuring the Simple Voice Chat mod.

Note

Simple Voice Chat is required to be installed on your local Minecraft client, along with your server.

Official instructions for installing Simple Voice Chat to your local Minecraft client can be found here. We recommend using a launcher such as CurseForge or Prism Launcher.

Installing Simple Voice Chat to Your Minecraft Server

Note

Before getting started make sure to change your Minecraft server version to a version compatible with Simple Voice Chat.

Official installation instructions for Simple Voice Chat can be found here: https://modrepo.de/minecraft/voicechat/wiki/server_setup

In this example we'll be installing Simple Voice Chat 1.21.4 Fabric.

  1. 1
    Download a version of Simple Voice Chat.
  2. 2
    Log in to Bropanel and Stop your server.
  3. 3
    In the sidebar, go to Files.
  4. 4
    Upload your downloaded voicechat.jar to mods.
  5. 5
    Start your server.

Enabling Simple Voice Chat on Your Minecraft Server

After following the above steps and installing Simple Voice Chat, here's how to configure this mod on your server.

Tip

Simple Voice Chat requires configuration, specifically a port to run on. A port is the number at the end of your IP address after the colon :.

For example, if your IP is 111.123.144.15:27033, 27033 is a port.

Your available ports can be seen under Advanced in Settings, listed as Network Allocations. We don't recommend using your primary port for Simple Voice Chat.

  1. 1
    Log in to Bropanel and Stop your server.
  2. 2
    In the sidebar, go to Files.
  3. 3
    Navigate to /config/voicechat/ and open voicechat-server.properties.
  4. 4
    Edit port= to a non-primary port found under Network Allocations (Settings → Advanced), then click save.
  5. 5
    Start your server.

After connecting to your server, press V to configure voice chat in-game.
