Installation

Requirements

Dependency Version
Minecraft (Java Edition) 26.1.2
Fabric Loader ≥ 0.19.2
Fabric API 0.150.0+26.1.2 or compatible
Java 25 or later

SoundTweaks is client-side only. You don't need to install it on a server to use it on that server.


Installing

  1. Install Fabric Loader for Minecraft 26.1.2 if you haven't already
  2. Download Fabric API for 26.1.2 and put it in your mods/ folder
  3. Download the SoundTweaks .jar and put it in your mods/ folder
  4. Launch the game

The mod is active as soon as the game starts. Press K (default keybind) to open the sound control screen.


Verifying the installation

If the mod loaded correctly:

  • Pressing K opens the SoundTweaks screen in-game
  • Three config files appear in .minecraft/config/ after the first launch:
    • soundtweaks.json
    • soundtweaks_blocks.json
    • soundtweaks_presets.json
  • A reference file soundtweaks_sounds.txt is also generated listing all registered sound IDs

Compatibility

SoundTweaks intercepts sound volume at playback time via mixin. It doesn't replace or wrap the sound engine, so it should be compatible with other audio mods. Tested alongside:

  • Sodium — no issues
  • ModMenu — no issues (the mod doesn't register a ModMenu config screen; use K instead)
  • Litematica — no issues
  • Flashback — no issues
  • Mouse Tweaks — no issues
  • Tweakeroo — no issues
  • Xaero's Minimap / World Map — no issues
  • Borderless Fullscreen — no issues

If you hit a compatibility issue, open an issue on GitHub with the full crash report or log.


Uninstalling

Remove the .jar from your mods/ folder. The config files in .minecraft/config/ are left behind — delete them manually if you want a clean uninstall:

  • soundtweaks.json
  • soundtweaks_blocks.json
  • soundtweaks_presets.json
  • soundtweaks_sounds.txt
