How do I install Simple Radio?

Install the matching mod loader (Forge, Fabric or NeoForge) for your Minecraft version. Download the .jar. Put it in the .minecraft/mods folder and launch that loader profile. Opens on Modrinth — not every file is mirrored on our own servers.

What Minecraft version does Simple Radio work with?

The listing gives Minecraft 1.21, 1.21.1, 1.21.2, among others. This is the version stated by the author or source site, not something we verified ourselves.

This mod is a plugin of Simple Voice Chat which adds radio communication over frequencies you can use to communicate with your friends while far away!

Frequently Asked Questions

Recipes aren't showing!

There is currently an ongoing issue with recipes being inaccessible when using FFAPI, even if you aren't using it, you should try using the FFAPI patch anyway.

You should add X!

If you have a feature request, check if it exists on the roadmap already, or create a feature request on the GitHub if it doesn't exist yet.

Can you port to X minecraft version?

I have plans to port Simple Radio to every version that Simple Voice Chat supports for Forge and Fabric (eventually), this means versions as early as 1.12.2 all the way to recent versions of Minecraft.

Can you port to X loader?

Probably not. Each loader adds a heavy burden on development as I have to test it for each version as well as each loader for that version so that there aren't any issues with it (which there still ends up being anyway). But feel free to suggest it anyway and I can atleast consider it!
