How to Configure Audio Settings for Custom Hitmarkers and Eating Sounds

Balancing Combat and Food Audio Cues

beyond visual changes, the Withered Out Resource Pack replaces default noises with custom audio cues for landing hits on targets and eating food. Because these cues give you immediate feedback during battle, balancing your volume sliders helps them stand out over background noise.

1. Open Options and select Music & Sounds.

2. Lower Music and Ambient/Environment so background tracks do not drown out combat feedback.

3. Keep Players and Hostile Creatures turned up to a comfortable, clear level. In Minecraft, the sound of eating food—such as consuming a freshly reskinned golden apple to restore health—and player attack sounds are controlled primarily through the Players slider.

Troubleshooting Missing Custom Sounds

If you land a hit on a target or eat food during a fight and still hear the standard vanilla audio instead of the Withered Out custom cues:

1. Check Options > Resource Packs and verify that no sound pack is placed above Withered Out in the *Selected* column.

2. Press F3 + T while in-game. This built-in shortcut forces Minecraft to reload the sound engine and all active resource pack assets, which resolves silent or stuck custom audio cues without restarting the game.
