Mind your neighbors. Dampen your anvils and pulverizers to reduce noise.


How to use:
Simply place an anvil atop any type of log. That's it, enjoy your quieter smithing!
Now with Pulverizer support!

 


Multiplayer Compatible
Config Lib support

Inside of the DampenedAnvil_Config.json file, you can customize the distance and volume of each affected system. You could even make them louder if you're extra like that.

Default Settings

"HammerHitDistance": 8.0, // The distance in blocks that sound will travel. Vanilla default is 16.0
"HammerHitVolume": 0.5,  // Maximum volume when the hammer strikes an anvil. Vanilla default is 1.0
"HelveHitDistance": 16.0,  // The distance in blocks that sound will travel. Vanilla default is 32.0
"HelveHitVolume": 0.5,  // Maximum volume when the hammer strikes an anvil. Vanilla default is 1.0
"PulverizerHitDistance": 4.0, // The distance in blocks that sound will travel. Vanilla default is 8.0
"PulverizerHitVolume": 0.5, // Maximum volume when operating a pulverizer. Vanilla default is 1.0
"Version": 0.01 // Config file version. Set to 0 to reset, but keep settings. Delete config to fully reset all defaults.

  • Added: Pulverizer support. Works just like dampening an anvil. Simply place your Pulverizer ontop of a log to activate the sound dampening.
  • Changed: Config version is now 1.0
  • Added: PulverizerHitDistance in Config. Default value 4.0. Represents the furthest distance the sound will travel for pulverizers. Vanilla default is 8.0

  • Fixed: Config Lib creating junk config files. If you have a corrupt config file, just delete it in your VintagestoryData\ModConfig directory and restart your game. DampenedAnvil will now properly attempt to create the config before ConfigLib gets its grubby hands on the filepath. It was also a good excuse to optimize the client/server side configuration loader.
  • Fixed: Got rid of the commented out block, and using the "enabled: false" option in block properties. This should reduce errors in the logs.
0.0.7
63 Apr 9th at 5:03 PM dampenedanvil_0.0.7.zip 1-click install
  • Fixed: Fix for Multiplayer crash. Config is now loaded properly from the client and used instead of server config.
  • Known Issue: Config Lib creates corrupt config files, instead of DampenedAnvil creating the config file if one does not exist already.
0.0.4
53 Apr 8th at 4:16 PM dampenedanvil_0.0.4.zip 1-click install
  • Added: ConfigLib support. If for some reason your Volume slider only allows 0 or 1, hit the default button and try again. This is a bug with ConfigLib.
0.0.3
46 Apr 8th at 4:55 AM dampenedanvil_0.0.3.zip 1-click install
  • Fixed: Forgot to turn off debug log events. This should reduce the log spam.
0.0.2

MRGOOSE Thanks for the input. I'll look into doing the pulverizer as well.
From my research, it's pretty much either a shielded tuyere or a dampening pad (similar to putting a log under an anvil) that is commonly used on pulverizer machines. So, it doesn't seem out of place to similarly use logs for this purpose, given the design of the pulverizer in VS.

Edit: Pulverizers are now supported in 1.0.0 !

KickPaw 🙏 Thank you!

Buddha bless this mod, works fine on 1.20.11

terci That error shouldn't affect anything. It's just a commented out JSON for a WIP custom dampened anvil item.

Haven't tested any anvils yet, but I'm seeing this error during the startup poem:

9.4.2025 17:22:52 [Error] Block type dampenedanvil:blocktypes/dampenedanvil.json could not be loaded. Will ignore. Exception thrown:
