NeaChat-Free — Essential Chat Engine for Paper 1.21+
The most visually immersive free chat system for modern Minecraft servers.
NeaChat-Free transforms your server's chat from plain text into a rich, interactive experience powered by native Minecraft sprites, Adventure API, and MiniMessage formatting. No resource packs. No client-side mods. Everything renders using Minecraft's own texture atlas — the exact same icons players see in their inventory, crafting table, and achievements.
Built for Paper 1.21+ · Fully asynchronous · Zero-dependency core · 100% FreeClick to expand...
Most chat plugins give you plain colored text. NeaChat-Free brings visual language to your server for free.
Every chat message becomes a canvas: player heads rendered inline, Minecraft item and block sprites embedded directly in text, interactive hover cards that reveal player profiles, click-to-copy chat emojis, and click events that trigger commands — all without a single resource pack file.
Your players will hover over a rank tag and see a profile card with stats and rank info. They'll type a word like :diamante: and see the actual 100% color-vibrant diamond block texture appear in their message. They'll type [item] and showcase their held item or block as a clickable sprite with full tooltip.
Upgrade your server's chat today with zero cost.
Features Included in NeaChat-Free
Advanced Format System
-
Unlimited chat formats with priority-based assignment ( HIGHER_FIRST or LOWER_FIRST)
-
Each format is a multi-part composition: player head, tags, rank badge, nickname — each segment independently configurable
-
Per-part hover tooltips: design profile cards with sprites, stats, gradients, and custom layouts
-
Per-part click events: SUGGEST commands, RUN commands, OPEN_URL, or COPY_TO_CLIPBOARD
-
Per-format chat colors: each rank gets its own message color (hex, gradient, or legacy)
-
Full MiniMessage support: <gradient>, <rainbow>, <hover>, <click>, <font>, <reset>, and more
-
Full legacy color code support ( &a, &#FF0000, &x&F&F...) alongside MiniMessage — mix freely
Interactive Chat Emoji System (/emoji)
-
Interactive Paginated Chat Menu (/emoji [page]): Browse all available emojis directly in chat with pagination buttons ( [« Anterior] [Siguiente »])
-
One-Click Copy: Click on any emoji or the [Clic para copiar] button to copy the exact keyword to your clipboard!
-
Single Config File (emojis.yml): Pre-packaged with clean Spanish emoji keywords
-
Color Isolation (Glitch-Free Sprites): Emojis render in their authentic 100% full-color resolution — they never get tinted or faded by chat formatting colors!
⚔️ Universal Item Showcase ([item])
-
Show Anything in Hand: Supports both items AND blocks! Netherite swords, enchanted books, or custom blocks — all display instantly
-
Dual Atlas Resolution: Automatically detects whether an item belongs to the items or blocks atlas ( <sprite:items:...> or <sprite:blocks:...>)
-
Native Inventory Tooltip: Hovering reveals the complete item card (display name, enchantments, lore, durability, and custom model data)
-
Toggleable Economy Integration: Optional Vault integration charges players to showcase items ( vault-enabled: false/true)
️ Native Minecraft Sprites (14 Atlases Loaded)
-
Renders real textures directly from 14 built-in Paper/Minecraft texture atlases: blocks, items, gui, particles, paintings, map_decorations, banner_patterns, shield_patterns, armor_trims, beds, chest, decorated_pot, shulker_boxes, signs
-
Smart Filtering: only loads sprites ≤16×16px that can actually render as chat glyphs
-
Atlas browser command: /neachat sprites [atlas] [filter] [page] — browse every available sprite with live preview and pagination
Player Head Rendering
-
Displays the player's actual skin head inline in chat using <head:PlayerName>
-
Renders the 3D head as a chat glyph — instantly recognizable
