Pv-Addon-Sculk Mod FAQ
10 questions players actually ask, answered.
Does the mod work if I have my microphone muted or disabled?
Yes, if your microphone is muted in your system settings or in the proximity voice chat mod settings, the Warden will not detect audio from you. Make sure to verify your mic is actually muted before entering an ancient city if you want to avoid triggering it.
What counts as 'loud noise' that triggers the Warden?
Any sound picked up by your microphone while proximity voice chat is active can trigger the Warden, including talking, coughing, keyboard clicks, or background noise. The sensitivity depends on your microphone's pickup range and the proximity voice chat mod's detection settings.
Can I play this mod in single-player or only on servers?
The mod requires proximity voice chat to function, which typically requires a server with the mod installed. Single-player worlds won't have proximity voice chat enabled unless you set up a local voice server, so the Warden detection feature won't work in standard single-player.
How do I set up my microphone so the Warden doesn't detect me?
Mute your microphone in your operating system's audio settings or in the proximity voice chat mod's configuration before entering an ancient city. You can also adjust microphone sensitivity settings if your mod provides them to reduce false triggers from ambient noise.
Does this mod affect Warden behavior outside of ancient cities?
No, the Warden only spawns in ancient cities, so the mod's voice detection only matters when you're in that biome. Outside ancient cities, the Warden won't exist to detect you.
What happens if the Warden detects my voice?
The Warden will be triggered and enter combat mode just as if you had made noise through regular Minecraft sound events. It will hunt you down with the same aggression and abilities as a normally-triggered Warden.
Can I disable just the voice detection part of this mod?
Check the mod's configuration file for options to disable voice detection while keeping other features, though this depends on how the mod is structured. Alternatively, simply muting your microphone achieves the same practical effect.
Does this mod work with other Warden mods or difficulty mods?
Compatibility depends on whether other mods modify the same Warden mechanics; conflicts are possible if multiple mods try to change Warden behavior simultaneously. Test with your specific mod combination to see if they work together.
Will the Warden detect background noise or just my voice?
The Warden detects any audio your microphone picks up, including background noise, music, pets, or other people in your space. You'll need to ensure your environment is quiet or your microphone is muted to avoid accidental triggers.
Is there a way to practice sneaking through an ancient city without the voice detection?
Yes, mute your microphone before entering the ancient city, which disables the mod's detection feature while keeping the rest of the challenge intact. This lets you practice navigation and combat preparation without worrying about real-world sounds.
