DefaultChatColor

1.2.1

A simple way for players to customize their chatting experience!

·Plugin

UPDATE: DCC v1.2.1 has been released with native Minecraft 1.13.x support!


If you are updating from a previous version before 1.2.1, there have been some changes to permissions. Make sure you update them to ensure players still have access to the plugin!

If you are updating from a previous version before 1.1, you must rename your "config.yml" file found in your server folders to "data.yml", otherwise the old stored data will not work correctly. You will also need to give players additional permissions to access /dcc color <color> from previous versions. See below for more info.


DefaultChatColor is a plugin that allows your server's users to change the default color and/or format they send messages in. It's all done by simple commands, and stored away in your server's files. Players only need to activate the command once and they're all set. No need to use the command each time they log in.


These colors are used in game with all DCC commands and permissions. More info in the Command and Permissions section. Please note that at this time, multiple formats cannot be used simultaneously. Support for this is planned in a future update.

More features will be coming to this plugin over time, and I will absolutely be taking suggestions from reviews and replies. If there's something you'd like to see improve with this plugin, please let me know. If there are any unforeseen bugs with this plugin, also let me know.

If you can, a rating at the very least would be most appreciated, as it gives me a general idea of how well I'm doing here.
