Frequently asked questions

How do I get drip sounds to actually play in my world?
Place a water or lava block above another block so drip particles form, then stand close enough to hear them land. The mod only plays sounds where the particles appear, so if you see no particles you will hear nothing.
Why aren't my water drips making any sound?
Check that drip particles are actually spawning and that your volume for the drip sound category isn't turned down. If the particle count is set very low or off, drips will rarely or never trigger a sound.
Do I need to install this mod on the server for it to work?
No, the mod works client-side, so you can hear drip sounds on any server without the server having it installed. Other players without the mod simply won't hear the sounds you do.
How do I change the drip sound volume?
Open the mod's config file and adjust the volume setting for droplet sounds, which is quiet by default. Raise it if you want drips more noticeable or lower it if they're distracting.
