Frequently asked questions

How do I get MAtmos to actually start making sounds?

MAtmos runs automatically once installed, but you need to be in a valid environment for it to trigger — stand outside in a biome, near trees, or in a cave and wait a few seconds. If you hear nothing, check that the mod's volume isn't muted in its config and that your master sound isn't turned down.

Why is MAtmos silent in the Nether or End?

MAtmos has dedicated sound sets for some dimensions but coverage varies, and the Nether's ambience is intentionally sparse compared to the Overworld. If you hear nothing at all, make sure the correct sound pack is enabled in the config, since some packs only cover specific biomes or dimensions.

Does MAtmos work with other sound mods like Sound Physics or Dynamic Surroundings?

It can run alongside them, but you'll often get doubled or clashing ambience because both mods try to play environmental sounds. Pick one as your primary ambience mod, or disable overlapping categories in each mod's config to avoid audio stacking.

How do I turn off specific sounds like crows or wolves?

Open the MAtmos config and look for the sound category or event toggles — most individual sounds can be disabled without turning off the whole mod. If a specific sound isn't listed, you can usually edit the sound pack's configuration files to remove or mute it.
