Simple Voice Chat – Configuration Guide
How to configure the Simple Voice Chat plugin on your HypeSrv Minecraft server.
The Simple Voice Chat plugin enables in-game voice communication without relying on external tools like Discord. This guide explains how to correctly configure the plugin on your HypeSrv Minecraft server.
Basic configuration
After installing the plugin, you can find its configuration file at:
plugins/voicechat/voicechat-server.properties
voice_host = 0.0.0.0
voice_port = -1
| Setting | Recommended value | Explanation |
|---|---|---|
voice_host | 0.0.0.0 | Binds Voice Chat to all available network interfaces. |
voice_port | -1 | Automatically uses the server’s main port. Recommended for most setups. |
Using
voice_port = -1 is the simplest and safest configuration, as no additional ports are required.Using a custom port (optional)
If you prefer using a separate port for Simple Voice Chat, you can request an additional port via HypeSrv Support.
Once assigned, update the configuration:
voice_port = <your_port>
Subdomain & BungeeCord setups
If your server:
- uses a custom subdomain (e.g.
my.hype.surf) - and runs behind BungeeCord / proxy software
you must set voice_host to the original server address shown in your server settings.
Example
voice_host = zoe.hysrv.eu
When using BungeeCord or subdomains, Voice Chat will not work correctly if
voice_host is set to the proxy or domain name.
Always use the original server address.Finishing up
After making changes:
- Save the configuration file
- Restart your server completely
Once the server is back online, players can press V (default key) in-game to start talking.
