Description

GhostChat is a private messaging mod that utilizes your character's skin layers to invisibly transfer messages to other players using the same mod.

Features:

  • True Privacy: A completely private chat channel. Only you and other users of the mod can see your messages. Your communication never touches third-party servers.
  • Vanilla Protocol: Communication is achieved through the game's existing protocols by toggling skin layers to transfer data.
  • Proximity-Based: By its very nature, the channel is range-limited. Only players within the server's entity rendering distance can receive your messages, making it perfect for local coordination.
  • User Discovery: Use the /ghost near command to scan for other nearby players who are also using the mod.
  • Client-only: Nothing needs to be installed on the server in order to use this mod, it's completely client-side.

How to Use:

  1. Ensure at least one other player with the mod is within your rendering distance.
  2. Use /ghost toggle to switch your chat input to the GhostChat channel.
  3. Alternatively, use /ghost send <message> to send a single message without toggling.
  4. Use /ghost near to find other users nearby.

Disclaimer:

This mod is provided as-is. I take no responsibility for any consequences that may arise from its use. Always read and respect the rules of the server you are playing on.

The goal of this project is to explore in-game communication in an experimental way and to demonstrate the creative possibilities within Minecraft. Please use it responsibly.
