✅ Features:
Animated GUI (Key 'K'): A beautifully designed, fully animated menu with tabs for Friends, Incoming, and Outgoing requests.
Secret P2P Messenger: Chat privately with other BuddyMod users. Your messages are encrypted and completely hidden from the server chat and server logs!
Player Dossier & Notes: The mod automatically remembers the Date and Server IP where you first met a player. Leave multi-line custom notes for every friend.
Deep Customization: Change your friends' nametag colors using a built-in color picker with a live 3D character preview. Friends are also highlighted with a golden star (⭐) in the Tab list.
Smart Notifications: Beautiful, customizable on-screen pop-ups for logins, messages, and friend requests.
⚙️ Compatibility
BuddyMod is 100% Client-Side. This means you can use it on ANY server (Hypixel, 2b2t, Aternos, realms, or local worlds). The server does not need to have this mod installed. To use the Secret Chat feature, both you and your friend must have the mod installed.
