PinChat

A Minecraft mod that enhances chat functionality with message pinning, grouping, and a moveable chat screen. Works on both Fabric and Forge mod loaders!

✨ Features

? Pin Chat Messages

• Right-click on any chat message to pin/unpin it
• Pinned messages are displayed persistently on your HUD
• Create multiple message groups to organize your pinned messages
• Drag and drop groups anywhere on your screen
• Configurable maximum number of pinned messages
• Adjustable text width for pinned messages

? Message Groups

• Organize pinned messages into separate groups
• Each group can be positioned independently on the screen
• Collapse/expand groups with a single click
• Create new groups on the fly when pinning a message
• Rename groups to keep things organized

? Moveable Chat Screen

• Open a special chat mode where you can move while typing (default: U)
• Look around freely with your mouse while the chat is open
• Smooth movement transitions — no abrupt stops when opening/closing chat
• Configurable mouse sensitivity for chat mode

⚙️ Flexible Configuration

PinChat works standalone, but also integrates with popular configuration mods for enhanced settings experience:

All dependencies are optional! The mod works perfectly without any of them.
