ChatEmojis

by PhoenixOrigin

ChatEmojis lets players type emoji codes in Minecraft 1.8.9 chat and see them rendered as images, using a Discord-style emoji pack.

What it does

Custom emojis are loaded from a chatemojis folder inside the .minecraft directory, so a player adds image files there and they become available in chat. Most common image formats are supported, and GIF files play as animated emojis. Only the client needs the mod, so servers run without it and players join without changes to the server.

Key features

  1. Custom emoji folder

    Image files placed in the chatemojis folder inside .minecraft become emojis usable in chat.

  2. Wide image format support

    Most image types supported by Java can be used as emojis, not only a single preset format.

  3. Animated GIF emojis

    GIF files are shown as animated emojis in chat, alongside still images.

What the author says

A simple mod to add support for emojis to 1.8.9. By default, it comes with the discord emoji pack. For custom emojis, add the file to.minecraft/chatemojis (this folder should show up after your first launch with the mod). Most image types supported by ImageIO are supported, along with GIFs for animated emojis
