The Official Chat Plugin of VENTUREMC
VentureChat is a do-it-all chat plugin rated as the #1 Bukkit chat resource on Spigot. Much of what makes VentureChat so great is its versatility. VentureChat functions extremely well on all types of servers - big or small - Bukkit or Bungee. The plugin also has a bunch of configurable and toggleable special features, including a Moderation GUI, mute management, JSON hovers, channels, Bungee/network channels, grouped server channels, private channels, placeholders (lots of placeholder capabilities) and much more. If it involves chat, VentureChat can do it.
Check out the Pro Tips section down below!
- Channels system for a controlled chat: Players can join channels they want to hear and leave channels they don't want to hear.
- JSON formatting: Hover messages over the players prefix and name are now configurable based on custom JSON groups in the config.
- Muting: You can mute players in a channel, optionally for a time in minutes, or all channels at once.
- Proxy muting: You can mute players on any server in the network through the bungeecord proxy.
- Forcing: You can force a player or all players to send messages or run commands.
- Channel permissions: You can make channels with permissions. Ex: Staff channels or donator channels.
- Channel distances: You can configure a distance for players to hear a channel. Ex: A town or local channel
- Channel cooldowns: You can set a cooldown time in seconds for a channel for a cooldown between a player sending a message. There is a bypass permission for cooldowns.
- BungeeCord channels: You can have a channel send its messages to other servers in a BungeeCord network.
- Towny and Factions channels: You can create special channels for Towny, Nation, and Factions. Check the config for more details!
- Colors for channels and chat: You can set 2 colors for each channel, the color for the channels tag and a color for the color of the chat in that channel.
- Chat filter: You can setup a chat filter in the config to filter out vulgar words or anything you want.
- Quick chat: Players can use /channel [message] to send a message into that channel without switching into it.
- Party chat: Players can join parties and create private groups.
- Supports Vault for player prefixes: Any permissions plugin that works with vault will work with this plugin.
- In game configuration editing: You can edit the configuration in game and it will automatically reload the plugin for instant updates.
- Anti spam: You can choose to use the anti spam which automatically mutes spammers.
- Custom formatting: You can either use the default channel, party, and messaging formats, or make your own with the format feature.
- Vanish plugin support: If you have VanishNoPacket installed, private messaging will be disabled to vanished players. (Not over Bungee)
- Cross server messaging: The plugin can be installed into the bungeecord plugins folder to add cross server messaging.
- MySQL logging: You can optionally use a MySQL database to log all chat and commands from the server.
- BungeeCord synchronization: Mutes and channel data from BungeeCord channels, along with spy and commandspy settings will be automatically synchronized throughout the network
- PlaceholderAPI Placeholders: All PlaceholderAPI placeholders will work in the chat format, JSON formatting, and moderation GUI.
