zsawyer / MumbleLink

Minecraft + Mumble + MumbleLink = You hear where voices come from and how far away they are! This is a Minecraft mod based on "Minecraft Forge". It's purpose is to be able to use Minecraft in conjunction with Mumble's positional audio feature (http://mumble.sourceforge.net/).

Instructions for use with the Minecraft Flatpak #30

Closed devurandom closed 3 years ago

devurandom commented 4 years ago

I am running a vanilla Minecraft server version 1.15.2. On the client I run Minecraft 1.15.2, Minecraft Forge 31.2.0, MumbleLink for Forge 4.4.1, ExtendedPASupport for MumbleLink 1.1.0 (according to the "Mods" menu in the Minecraft client's main menu). The client runs in Flatpak 1.6.3.

Without any modifications MumbleLink will not work: no Minecraft linked" message in Mumble and no "Mumble linked" message in Minecraft.

I need to give additional permissions to the Minecraft Flatpak by running flatpak override --user --device=shm com.mojang.Minecraft on the command line (and possibly restart the Minecraft Flatpak if it was already running) to make the link work. (Reason: The Mumble Link works via SHM and /dev/shm is by default sandboxed by Flatpak.)

It would be nice if this information could be added to the FAQ / Troubleshooting section in the MumbleLink readme.

Thank you for this valuable feedback. I am also glad that you were able to figure out the problem and find a solution. I believe /dev/shm is a given by Mumble's Link Plugin so all we can do is properly document your solution.
