How Proximity Voice Chat Works on Oria

Simple Voice Chat is a client-side mod that connects to our server's voice system. When you're near another player you can hear them in real-time — conversations happen naturally as you explore, trade, or build together. Walk away and the audio fades. It's completely optional, but almost everyone who tries it never goes back to text chat alone.

No Discord call required. No pushing to talk on a separate app. Just open Minecraft and the voice is there.

How to Set It Up

1

Apply and Get Whitelisted

Submit your application at oriamc.com/apply. Once approved you'll receive a Discord DM within 24 hours.

2

Install Simple Voice Chat

Download the Simple Voice Chat mod from Modrinth and add it to your Fabric mods folder. It's a client-side mod — installation takes under a minute.

3

Connect and Press V

Join play.oriamc.com, press V to open the voice chat settings, and you're live. Walk up to any player and start talking.

Fully Optional

Don't want to use voice? You never have to. The server plays completely normally without the mod installed.

Whitelisted Community

You're only ever going to hear people who applied and were accepted. No random strangers, no harassment.

Vanilla+ Survival

No economy plugins, no land claims. Pure Minecraft survival with the community layer that voice chat enables.
