NPChat: e33chat Exclusive NPC Extension Mod

This is a must-have mod for E33Chat, created by E33EPUS.

NPChat is a NeoForge add-on mod specifically designed for e33chat. It breaks the system's limitation of only allowing real-time online players, allowing servers or map creators to perfectly integrate custom NPCs (such as quest givers, village chiefs, etc.) into e33chat's communication ecosystem.

Core Features

Command-Driven NPC Dialogue: Simple commands (e.g., /npchat @s "NPC name" message content) allow specified NPCs to send messages to players. These messages are correctly identified as private chat by the e33chat system, triggering existing unread notifications and alerts.

Local Custom Avatar Loading: Supports dynamically loading avatars from external folders. Simply place a 1:1 PNG image into the .minecraft/e33chat/npc_avatars/ folder (the filename must match the NPC's name), and the system will automatically read it. The underlying mechanism uses a UUID hashing mechanism, perfectly avoiding the issue of Minecraft's original texture paths not supporting Chinese characters.

NPChat：e33chat 專屬 NPC 擴充模組

E33Chat 這是必裝模組，模組作者 E33EPUS

NPChat 是一款為 e33chat 量身打造的 NeoForge 附屬模組。它打破了系統僅限真實連線玩家的限制，允許伺服器或地圖製作者將自訂的 NPC（例如任務發布者、村長等）完美整合進 e33chat 的通訊生態中。

核心功能特色

• 指令驅動的 NPC 對話 透過簡單的指令（例如 /npchat @s "NPC名稱" 訊息內容），即可讓指定的 NPC 傳送訊息給玩家。這些訊息會被 e33chat 系統正確判定為私聊，並觸發原有的未讀紅點與提示通知。

• 本機自訂頭像讀取 支援從外部資料夾動態載入頭像。只需將 1:1 的 PNG 圖片放入 .minecraft/e33chat/npc_avatars/ 資料夾中（檔名需與 NPC 名稱一致），系統便會自動讀取。底層採用 UUID 雜湊機制，完美避開了 Minecraft 原版材質路徑不支援中文的問題。
