The main focus of this mod is to add tabs to chat and provide an API for adding messages to them. Additionally, it parses the chat for channels and PMs, then separates them to different tabs.
This requires LiteLoader, but should also be compatible with Forge.
This mod also requires MnmUtils to be installed (pre-1.12). If you are using Forge, build 2020 or later is required.
To install, just place both tabbychat and mnmutils litemods in the mods folder.
Features
- Overhauled chat box
- Filters to manually redirect or hide chat messages
- Movable and resizable chat box
- Message timestamps
- Spam prevention
- Multi-line outbound chat messages (pre-1.12)
- Spell checking
Quickstart
Upon opening chat, you will see the chat has changed dramatically. Tabs will be on the top of the chat and the text box will be on the bottom of it. Dragging the tab area will move the chat box. Right-clicking on a tab will open it's settings. Using the default (*) tab will open the settings. Closing a tab can be done by shift clicking or middle clicking.

Heyo,
I've been keeping track of this mod and seen some of the github builds you've been working on for it. I just wanted to provide some encouragement, as this mod is very helpful keeping track of messages on MP servers and being able to have a personal record that goes back. I wanted to thank you for updating this mod and your continued work on it. For now, I will eagerly wait for the updated tabby chat.
Hey there
I wonder if we can set a Playername's Prefix as a TC2 chat filter please ? I mean to see a new tab [Event] when the member "[Event] Playername:" is talking or the filter detects only the "chat message/not prefix" ? I would like to use your mod because it looks clean aaaah dilemma.
Any plans for 1.13.2 (Rift) or 1.14 (Fabric) versions? Would strongly recommend since Forge is too slow to keep up-to-date.
Hi there
Thank you for this mod. How can I set the chat channels on my server please ? Have I to use another mod to do that ? (https://minecraft.curseforge.com/projects/chatcontrol). I have seen the folder "minecraft\liteconfig\common\TabbyChat2" but what I have to do ? Thank you in advance.
Edit: My god it is so complicated. There is tons of tutorial but 0 explain how to simply create a classic tab for TC2. Yes there is 1 million possibilities but it's really too much complicated. I don't need insane expression or filter or i don't know what things. I just need 1 new channel. Very sad.

You don't need anything special in your pattern. If you don't have any special symbols, what you type is what you match.
In reply to Killjoy1221:
I realize Tabbychat2 cannot make a classic channel like I want. It filters only the words players are writting in the main chat and redirects the messages in the concerned channels. So I guess it is not possible to have a very classic chat with topics channels : 1 "game channel" to talk about the topic "game", 1 "sport channel" to talk about the topic "sport" etc. And when we click on the channels tabs we see what players write in this specific channel (no matter if they write the word game or sport). I wanna cry. You were my last hope.
In reply to Finelarme9:
Sadly no. You may want to search for a server solution. UltimateChat may be able to do what you like, then TabbyChat can split them into tabs.
In reply to Killjoy1221:
Thanks for your answer. I will take a look for a plugin solution yes. I could find utilities with TC2. I must setup my server first to see what I wanna do exactly lol
1.13.2 compatibility, is it planned or in progress. I have been hunting for this mod as it works great with RPG modpacks.
In reply to drakosoldier298:
I also need this mod as a mod/admin on my server.
Is there a way we can create our own custom tabs? Because if not I find this more annoying than useful. For example the server I'm currently on uses [Ranks] and [Announcements] which I can easily use to block out [Announcements] but I also want to see the ranked players with the non ranks. Same thing for [Messages -> me] its not on the same tab as the same people the I message [me -> player] And then (Team Chat) separates the other people talking if I use it, but has me ([Rank]Me) on the main chat while also bringing back all the [other tabs] back to the main chat
Please make a visual tutorial because I have been trying to make filters and cant get anything to work other then the basic text. Non of the regex stuff works for me.
In reply to Elrol:
All wiki/videos are not up to date indeed. I just want burn everything when I see 2 millions expressions possibilities but can't even add a simple channel.
Can you update documentation for the filter system? I have no idea how it works even after digging around and testing for an hour.
why are no liteloader mods 1.12.2 when there is liteloader 1.12.2? PLS UPDATE TO 1.12.2 AND IT WILL BE THE BEST BECAUSE IT THE ONLY 1.12.2 LITE LOADER MOD PLS PLS PLS PLS
In reply to mr2meows:
why does the spellcheck just put a red line under it .can you pleas add it so that we can click on the word and click the correct word.
then this mod would be the best chat mod ever
hello i have been looking for a spell checker mod for a long time.
and your mod says it has spell check but i can't correct the world that has been red under lined .
is there any way i can do that it really frustrating that it says it wrong when it won't tell me the correct spelling
Is there any way to get this to work without liteloader? that thing kills me. :/
