Features/Functionality

 

TabbyChat is a client-side mod for Minecraft that aims to make the multiplayer chat interface more organized, managable, and user-friendly.

 

Primary Features

The primary feature of TabbyChat is to organize chat messages into different channels, and to represent those channels via tab-like buttons displayed above the chat interface. There are several different ways to configure TabbyChat to organize chat, including:

  • Auto-searching for new chat channels or PM messages
  • Selecting the appropriate Chat-Channel delimiters and manually creating the desired tabs
  • Using custom filters to direct messages matching the desired expression to a specific tab

 

Custom Filters

Custom filters allow the user to tell TabbyChat to perform various actions when a chat message matches the defined Regular Expression. These actions include the following:

  • Highlight the matching text (with color and/or formatting)
  • Play a notification sound
  • Send the message to a specific tab
  • Send the message to all tabs
  • Prevent the message from displaying
  • New for this fork: Choose if a filter applies to a world/server or to all servers

 

 Additional Features

  • Unread Message Notifications
  • Timestamps prepended to chat messages
  • Suppress spammed chat messages
  • Log all chat to logfile with timestamps
  • Force Unicode font rendering
  • Interactive scroll bar
  • Dynamically movable/resizable chat box
  • Customize the number of messages retained (displayed) for each tab
  • Customize the length of time a message remains on-screen during normal gameplay
  • Each tab can have a 'command prefix' that can be applied to your messages
  • Multi-line chat with configurable transmission delay
  • New mouse controls and Key-binds added for interacting with TabbyChat
  • Spell-checking

 

Originally by RocketMan10404, the mod was maintained and further updated by Killjoy1221 & Dykam. 1.7 is the last mc version of the original TabbyChat, as Killjoy rewrote the mod for 1.8+ as TabbyChat 2. This is a separate project which I'm not affiliated with. 

 

This fork fixes a crash with Botania's corporea index and an incompatability with lotr's /fmsg command. I also added a toggle for choosing if a filter should apply on all servers or only on the current one. The biggest change though is that this fork is a forge only mod. Previous 1.7.10 TabbyChat builds also had LiteLoader versions. Due to technical limilations I unfortunately had to remove this.
