Emotes

This mod provides the ability to use server-defined emotes in Minecraft chat.

For Players

Simply type the : symbol in chat and start entering the name of the desired emote to activate it!

For Server Administrators

Players without the client mod installed will see text labels that are set by the server owner.

All emote files are stored in the folder <server folder>/config/emotes/emotes

However, they are not loaded automatically - you need to add them to the configuration file at <server folder>/config/emotes/emotes.toml

In the configuration, you'll get a list of all available emotes that must follow this format: "<png filename>:<text label>"

For example, if you have an emote kappa.png in the emotes/emotes folder, you need to specify in the configuration file:

emotes = ["kappa:Kappa"]

After this, you can use the emote in-game via the command ":kappa:", and players without the mod will see the text "Kappa"

Important Limitations

Emote names cannot contain uppercase letters (this is a Minecraft limitation for storing emotes in memory), so use only lowercase characters.

All emote images must be square. They can be high resolution, but must be square! If this rule is not followed, game clients will crash when opening chat.

Quick reminder:

• cannot use Kappa.png, only kappa.png
• in configuration cannot specify "Kappa:Kappa", only "kappa:Kappa"
• 600x400 images are not allowed, only square 600x600

⚠ IMPORTANT Emotes are sent to clients, meaning your emote files will be stored on other players' computers. Make sure you don't use images you don't want to make publicly available.
