Chat Patches

Chat Patches 8.0-alpha.9 for Minecraft 1.20.1, 1.21.1+5, 1.21.8–26.2-snapshot-6 on Fabric, Quilt

• Updated to 26.2 (snapshot-6)
  • WARNING: the dependencies used at the time of writing (YACL 3.9.3 + Mod Menu 19.0.0-alpha.1) are not fully ported to 26.2 and will crash your game if you press the <kbd>Mods</kbd> button
• Going forward, Minecraft versions will be published with the {year}.{drop}.x pattern, meaning Chat Patches releases can automatically support hotfixes for specific drops (unless explicitly removed due to incompatibilities)! This will save both me (the developer) and you (the player) time in between drops, so you can keep using the mod and I can avoid no-change releases
• Based on the relative lack of downloads compared to newer versions, the amount of version targets has been reduced. This should somewhat accelerate development for future releases! Later, I may reduce the amount of targets further. This will not affect the latest version!
• Ampersand formatting codes (ex &a) are now case-sensitive (&A will no longer work) — you shouldn't have done this in the first place though
• Revamped the process that generates the copiable text for the 'Formatted' menu option, and fixed some bugs within it (#311). The results coming from it should now be much more accurate and should contain less (if not zero) redundant formatting codes!
  • As a part of this, I introduced a slightly different approach that should work more effectively on modern Minecraft; however, it hasn't been tested much
  • Another feature pertaining to this is also coming soon!
• Dev notes:
  • In response to Mojang gutting ChatFormatting and changing TextColor, I made a new Colors util class to ease interoperability
  • In order to support the new consistent semver versioning and my existing publishing setup, versions can now specify mod.versions e... (trimmed)
