Chat Glow is a lightweight, client-side Fabric mod that upgrades the appearance and readability of your default Minecraft chat. It replaces the flat, static vanilla drop shadow with a beautiful, pulsing neon gold-to-orange glow outline.
What It Does
- Pulsing Glow Outline: Captures all text rendered in your chat HUD and wraps every character in a smooth, ambient glow that gently transitions between a warm neon gold and a vibrant orange.
- Enhanced Readability: The 4-directional outline creates high contrast, making messages incredibly easy to read against bright backgrounds like snow, desert sand, or sky, where default chat text normally washes out.
- Smooth Fading: Fully syncs with Minecraft’s default chat animations. As your chat messages fade away, the glow fades out naturally alongside them.
- Highly Optimized: Built using efficient Sponge Mixins with zero frame drops, meaning you get premium visuals without sacrificing performance.
- Client-Side Only: Runs entirely on your computer. You can safely join any vanilla or modded multiplayer server, and the glowing effect will work perfectly.
