Minecraft7tv
by d4annn
Minecraft7tv is a Fabric chat mod for Minecraft 1.17 that lets players send emotes from 7TV in chat.
What it does
Emotes are rendered from image files, including animated GIFs, through STBImage and ImageMagick conversion. A player adds an emote by entering a name and a link, after which the name can be typed into chat and the image appears in its place. Emotes are listed with their name on hover, and the mod's menu lets a player edit or remove them. The emote list has no set capacity.
On a server running the mod, a shared list of server emotes can be used by everyone on it, and players with the Server Emote Editor role can add or remove those. The server side can be switched on or off in its settings. Emotes can be sized to their own dimensions, stacked two at a time, and shared with other players. The mod's code is released under CC0 1.0 Universal, and the mod is published for Fabric only, for Minecraft 1.17. Either side can run it, and neither needs it, so a server can offer server emotes while players may also install it alone.
