fakechat
by sakuradaemon
fakechat lets server staff send chat lines that appear to come from other sources, such as NPCs, system notices or anonymous senders, in a server running Fabric.
What it does
Administrators can post messages that look like they came from a character or system, which suits quests, secret missions, rules reminders and important announcements. Public and private messages are both supported, along with anonymous lines that hide the sender. The main command is /fakechat, with /fc as a shorter alias.
Message text can use full formatting, including the style codes for bold, italic, underline, strikethrough and obfuscated text, and it accepts special characters and emoji. The mod runs on the server alone, so players join without installing anything. Files exist only for Fabric, built for version 1.21.4, with 1.0.1 as the latest file released 2026-01-04. The code is not open source and is under All rights reserved.
Key features
Fake admin messages
Staff can post lines that appear to come from an admin or other in-world voice, for atmosphere or announcements.
System notifications
Messages can be styled as system notices, separate from ordinary player chat, for rules and server updates.
Private and public messages
A message can go to a single player or to everyone on the server, depending on the command used.
Formatting and special characters
Text styles and emoji are supported in messages, so fake lines can match the tone of a scene.
Compatibility
Latest build for each game version and loader.
Only full game releases are shown. This mod publishes no snapshot builds.
Use cases
Story and quests
Map creators can send messages from NPCs during quests, letting a story unfold through the chat window.

Who it’s for: Server administrators, map creators and adventure-map builders who want to script chat messages during play. Players need nothing installed.
How it compares
Blocketing is server-side only and open source under the MIT License, built for Fabric 1.21.5 – 1.21.10. Radius Chat is also server-side only, released under All rights reserved, and covers 1.21 – 1.21.11 on Fabric. ChatMakro is client-side only, MIT licensed and tied to Fabric 1.21.11, so it works on the player side instead of the server.
