This guide will walk you through the installation and configuration of the two most popular voice chat mods/plugins: Simple Voice Chat and Plasmo Voice.
Client Installation Required
You must install the same voice chat mod on your Minecraft client to use voice chat on the server. If you try to join without it, voice chat features won't work.
1. Install the Mod or Plugin
-
First, download the mod or plugin. You can do so from the following links:
-
Simple Voice Chat
-
Plasmo Voice
-
-
Upload the
.jarfile to one of these folders:-
mods/folder for modded servers (Fabric, Forge, etc.) -
plugins/folder for plugin-based servers (Paper, Spigot, etc.)
-
-
Restart the server to load the voice chat mod/plugin. This will generate the default configuration files.
2. Allocate a new Port for Voice Chat
-
Go to your server's control panel.
-
Go to the Network section.
-
Click Create Allocation to generate a new port.
-
Copy the newly generated port number.
3. Edit the Configuration File
Find and open the configuration file for your mod and server type:
📁 Simple Voice Chat
-
Fabric/NeoForge/Forge/Quilt:
config/voicechat/voicechat-server.properties -
Paper/Spigot/Bukkit:
plugins/voicechat/voicechat-server.properties
📁 Plasmo Voice
-
Fabric/NeoForge/Forge:
config/plasmovoice/config.toml -
Paper/Spigot/Bukkit:
plugins/PlasmoVoice/config.toml
In the config file, find the port setting:
-
Simple Voice Chat:
port=24454 -
Plasmo Voice:
port = 0
Replace the port with the one you allocated in Step 3.
For example:
-
Simple Voice Chat:
port=8123 -
Plasmo Voice:
port = 8123
4. Restart the server
Restart the server once more to apply the new voice chat port setting.
Done!
Voice chat is now enabled on your server!
Make sure all players have the mod installed on their clients.
