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

Compatibility

Mod / plugin	Status
No Chat Reports and similar no-report plugins	Auto-compatible since 2.1.0, no config needed
ChatHeads / ChatAnimation	Work by default (the vanilla chat box keeps rendering, just shifted clear of the HUD icon)
Quark and similar item sharing	Item icons in system messages render correctly
CustomSkinLoader	Shows offline players' heads once installed
ModernUI	Bounds-safe underlines / click regions on clickable text
Nickname plugins	Partially supported
Chat-format plugins (EssentialsChat / DeluxeChat / CMI, ...)	Adaptable via server-declared message templates (`/e33chat gui`)

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//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.
