YouTube Chat Overlay is a client-side Forge mod that lets you see live YouTube stream chat directly inside Minecraft while you play.
The mod displays chat messages as a clean, unobtrusive HUD overlay, so streamers and viewers can keep up with live chat without tabbing out of the game. Messages update in real time and appear on screen independently from Minecraft’s normal chat.
A built-in config screen allows you to paste or change the YouTube stream URL from inside the game, making it easy to switch streams or reconnect without restarting Minecraft. The mod runs entirely on the client and does not affect servers or other players.
