Fix volume controls in Minecraft to work as intended.
About this Mod

Fix volume controls in Minecraft to work as intended. In particular, very loud sounds (thunder, jukeboxes, fireworks) should now react properly to changes in the appropriate volume sliders!
The why (technical)
In vanilla Minecraft, will only play for players within a certain distance. The distance is based on the volume of the sound being played. This means loud sounds (i.e. thunder) are set to an absurd volume in order to be heard from anywhere. The side effect of this is that no matter what you set your weather volume slider to, the thunder sound will always be played at 100% volume. Some other loud sounds like jukeboxes and fireworks suffer from the same problem, though not as extreme (the volume slider does nothing for them until it gets really low).
In order to fix this, I've capped all the internal volumes to 100%, then used the original volume value to determine the range like normal. This results in sounds being audible from the expected range, but the actual volume level scaling correctly with the slider.

Volume Fix server crashes on startup – what to do?
Most common cause: wrong fabric version or insufficient RAM. Check the server log (latest.log) for "OutOfMemoryError" or "Mixin" errors. With Mado Hosting: ensure at least 3 GB RAM is allocated and the loader matches the mod version (26.1.2). You can switch loaders with one click in the panel.

Volume Fix officially supports fabric, forge, neoforge, quilt for Minecraft 26.1.2, 26.1.1, 26.1. Note: Forge and Fabric mods are NOT cross-compatible – pick one loader and stick with it. The Mado dashboard automatically detects incompatible loader combinations.
Server lagging with Volume Fix – how to optimize performance?
Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if Volume Fix consumes the most tick time. Common fixes: reduce server view-distance to 8-10, install "performant" or "starlight" as supplementary mods on Forge.
