Description

Villagers are talking with different voice lines, like greetings, small-talk and similar. The mod lets you easily add different voices with resource packs. Every villager gets a random voice from the installed voices.

Installation

[1.17 and later] The config files will be generated on first startup. If you don't want the default voicepack, set createDefaultVoice to false in config/talkingvillagers/config.json and delete the teajay.json file in config/talkingvillagers/voices/.

[1.16.5 and earlier] Download the newest version of the mod and put it into your mods folder. To activate the bundled voicepack, download the newest teajay.json file from here and put it into the folder config/talkingvillagers/voices/.
