Palworld Discord Chat Plugin

A native C++ DLL server plugin for Palworld that bridges the in-game chat with Discord.

Non-commercial version — free for personal and community servers only.
Copyright 2026 RL-Dev.de — see LICENSE.md for terms.

Features

Game Chat → Discord: Player messages are forwarded to a Discord webhook.
Discord → Game Chat: Discord messages are injected into the Palworld chat via the file bridge.
Webhook Integration: Sends rich embeds for chat, join, leave and death events.
UE4SS Lua Bridge: Ships with a Lua mod for in-game chat hooking without recompiling UE4SS.

Installation

Download the latest release zip from the Releases page or use the PalworldDiscordPlugin_v4.0.4.zip in this repository.
Stop your Palworld server.
Extract the ZIP directly into your server's Pal/Binaries/Win64/ folder.

Expected structure after extraction:

   Win64/
   ├── PalworldDiscordPlugin.dll
   ├── PalworldDiscordConfig/
   │   └── config.json
   └── ue4ss/
       └── Mods/
           └── PalworldDiscordBridge/
               ├── mod.txt
               ├── Scripts/
               │   └── main.lua
               └── dlls/           (empty folder, used for the file bridge)

Open Win64/ue4ss/Mods/mods.txt and add the line:

Windows must Edit mods.json and add :

    {
        "mod_name": "PalworldDiscordBridge",
        "mod_enabled": true
    }

   PalworldDiscordBridge : 1

Open Win64/PalworldDiscordConfig/config.json and enter your Discord webhook URL (and bot token if you want Discord → Game chat).
Start the server.

The first start writes the remaining bridge files automatically.

  }
}

Important settings

discord.webhook_url: Required for Game Chat → Discord. Create a webhook in your Discord server and paste the URL here.
discord.bot_token + discord.channel_id: Required for Discord → Game Chat. The bot needs Read Message History permission in the channel.
events: Enable or disable individual event types.
bridge: Leave the default paths as shown above. The Lua mod and the C++ plugin must read/write the same files.

⚠️ Do not edit api_key, product name, copyright or any other license-related values. The plugin validates them at startup and will refuse to load if they do not match.

Troubleshooting

Check PalworldDiscordPlugin.log in Win64/ for errors.
Make sure PalworldDiscordBridge : 1 is in ue4ss/Mods/mods.txt.
Make sure the ue4ss/Mods/PalworldDiscordBridge/dlls/ folder exists.
Enable debug_mode: true for more detailed logs.
