About this project

What does Quality Sounds add?

Quality Sounds

Say goodbye to repetitive stone and wood sounds for every block. Quality Sounds gives each block its own unique, high-quality audio profile for placing, breaking, stepping, and hitting. Every sound matches the block's physical characteristics, adding realism and immersion to your block interactions.

Each wood type and leaf block gets custom sounds that fit its real life counterpart's density, texture, and flexibility. Stripping the bark off a log will remove the crunch of its bark when interacting with it. Barrels produce a hollow thunk, and wooden objects sound match the sound of their respective wood type.

Magma sizzles and ice blocks clink, while packed ice is crunchier. Because ores have distinct sounds, cave mining is easier. Glass gives off a subtle ring when placing it and glass shatter is replaced with a much improved version, to name a few.

Features

  • Over 50 distinct sound groups with more planned
  • Individual sound groups can be enabled/disabled in the config.
  • Currently, the mod is available for 1.19.3 - 1.20.2 for Fabric, and 1.19.2 - 1.20.2 for Forge, with plans for additional support
