Why Use Chat Patches Mod?

Vanilla Minecraft’s chat system is functional but outdated. If you’re a multiplayer regular, content creator, server admin, or Redstone debugger, this mod gives you professional-grade chat features without compromising performance or compatibility. From spam filtering to cross-world memory and deep logging, Chat Patches turns your chat window into a powerful tool for communication, history tracking, and UI comfort.

FAQs

Is this mod client-side only?

Yes, Chat Patches is a purely client-side mod. It does not require server installation and does not affect gameplay mechanics or server performance.

Will this work on multiplayer servers?

Absolutely. You can use all features on any multiplayer server, even if the server doesn’t have the mod installed.

Where are chat logs saved?

Chat logs are stored locally on your machine in the Minecraft directory. You can review or restore them when launching the game again.

Can I disable specific features like timestamps or HUD shifting?

Yes. All features are configurable via the mod’s settings panel. You can toggle or tweak every feature individually.

Does this mod support other chat-modifying mods?

Compatibility may vary. Chat Patches is designed to be standalone, so using it with other chat mods (e.g., EssentialsX client-side enhancements) might require testing.
