SimpleProxyChat
SimpleProxyChat carries chat messages between Minecraft servers that sit behind a proxy, so players on different backend servers share one channel.
What it does
The mod links backend servers to a proxy. The plugin jar goes into the plugins folder of a BungeeCord, Waterfall or Velocity proxy, and the matching helper build goes on each backend server. The proxy then routes chat between them, and a restart of the proxy is needed after the install. Both sides communicate over a WebSocket connection, which uses port 8766 by default and must be a free TCP port on the host.
The mod is built for networks that run several servers under one proxy. Its messages can be combined with plugins for placeholders, permissions and moderation, and the project names several such plugins as compatible. Bungee Chat Sync and Velocity Chat Sync are noted as companions that allow global cross-server messaging.
Installation on Fabric and NeoForge uses the same files, and the Paper, Spigot, Bukkit, Velocity, BungeeCord and Waterfall server platforms are listed as supported. The code is licensed under the GNU General Public License v3.0 or later and is open source. Files exist for 1.8 – 26.3, and the latest Fabric and NeoForge files are 1.0.0 for 26.3, published 2026-10-14.
Key features
Cross-server chat
Messages sent on one backend server appear on the other servers behind the same proxy.
WebSocket link
The proxy and each backend server talk over a WebSocket on a configurable port, 8766 by default.
Shared secret
A websocket secret, changeme by default, must match on both sides. The project asks owners to replace it with a strong value.
Reload command
The spc-reload command reloads the configuration on the proxy after changes.

How it compares
Server Chat Sync is a server-side only mod for Fabric and NeoForge, covering 1.20.5 – 1.21.10, and its license is All rights reserved, so it is not open source. Switchboard is also server-side only, but it runs on Fabric, Forge and NeoForge for 1.14 – 1.20.2 and is open source under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 only. SimpleProxyChat differs in being a proxy-based chat bridge that requires a helper build on each backend, and it is licensed under the GNU General Public License v3.0 or later.
