Colored Name Teams

by sacdj

Colored Name Teams lets server owners give players colored name tags through a datapack, with trigger commands that let each player pick a color.

FabricForgeNeoForgeQuiltServer required, client optionalAll rights reserved1.20 – 26.2

What it does

The mod ships as a datapack for vanilla Minecraft. Trigger commands let a player choose a name color that matches their style, and the color is applied to the player's name through team settings. Nothing needs to be changed in the game files, so the setup stays inside the world data.

Only the server needs the mod: players join without installing anything, and a client-side install is optional. The mod is published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, with files for 1.20 – 26.2, and the latest builds target 26.2. Colored Name Teams is required by CW - Cosmetic Waypoints. The code is not open source and is released under All rights reserved.

Key features

  1. Datapack color changes

    Name colors are set by a datapack, so the vanilla game is left unchanged apart from the new team colors.

  2. Trigger commands

    Players run trigger commands to pick a name color, so each player can personalize their own name without operator help.

  3. Server-side setup

    Only the server runs the datapack, and clients may add the mod optionally for matching visuals.
