E33Chat

Rebuilds the vanilla chat HUD in chat-app style

Vanilla Improvements

• 💬 Chat bubbles — Messages with player heads and names
• 💾 Chat history — Saved per world / server, restored on rejoin
• 📝 Input preserved — Typed text kept when closing chat
• 🚫 Anti-spam — Consecutive duplicate messages merged with a counter (on by default)

Highlights

• 👥 Whisper sidebar — Online player list, click to whisper
• 🔍 Chat search — Keyword search with real-time matching
• @ Mention autocomplete — Type @ for a popup player list, or left-click a player head
• 📌 Quick chat — Save and quick-fill common phrases
• 😊 Emoji & kaomoji — Emoji panel + kaomoji picker
• 📋 Copy & quote reply — Right-click a message to copy or quote reply
• 👤 Player head actions — Right-click a player head to teleport or whisper
• 🔔 Notification banners — Popup hints for @mentions, quotes, whispers and system messages (system banner on by default), with a jump-to-mention button
• 🔊 Notification sounds — Per-type toggles for system, @ / quote, whisper, and public messages
• 🎨 Themes — Dark/light theme with customizable bubble color, text color, and corner radius
• 🕐 Time separators — Timestamp dividers at configurable intervals
• 🌈 Colored messages — Supports & color/format codes (for servers with a color plugin installed)
• 🧩 Message templates — Servers that rewrite the chat format (plugins / No Chat Reports) can declare a template via /e33chat gui, so names and bodies are parsed correctly on every client

FAQ

Server required? No, but installing the server-side mod enables quote reply, @mention sync, chat history sync (new players receive recent messages), and the use_tpa option (player-head teleport uses /tpa).

How to configure? Gear icon (bottom-left) → Menu → Settings

• Client config: config/e33chat-client.toml (Fabric: config/e33chat-client.json)
• Server config: saves/<world>/serverconfig/e33chat-server.toml (Fabric: .json)

Where is chat history? .minecraft/e33chat/history

How to disable chat history sync? Set history_enabled = false in the world's server config and restart.

Modpack? Go ahead.
