About this Mod
Stop printing a huge error on the logs when the Narrator fails to load on Linux.
The mod hides stacktraces and the path from the narrator error, reducing it by 98%¹
The mod also supports various properties:
minecraft.narrator- Set tofalseto completely disable the narrator, and so the error too (Default:true)minecraft.narrator.error.hide_stacktrace- Removes stacktraces² from the logs (Default:true)minecraft.narrator.error.hide_path- Removes the path from the error message (Default:true)minecraft.narrator.error.replace_exception- Replaces the exception thrown to hide the supressed exceptions from the original one (Default:true)
The mod is also very small and stable, if a newer version is not listed, it is likely that it will still work
¹Calculated from the log printed on development env
²minecraft.narrator.error.hide_stacktrace only disables direct stack traces, the stacktrace for supressed exceptions will still show if minecraft.narrator.error.replace_exception is set to false
