Which build do you need?

This mod ships a separate file for every mod loader and every version of the game. Pick both, then download — the wrong build installs fine and then does nothing in the game.

Mod loader

Minecraft version

⬇ Download for 26.1–26.2 · Fabric⬇ Download for 1.21.9–1.21.11 · Fabric⬇ Download for 1.21.6–1.21.8 · Fabric⬇ Download for 1.21.3–1.21.5 · Fabric⬇ Download for 26.1–26.2 · NeoForge⬇ Download for 1.21.9–1.21.11 · NeoForge⬇ Download for 1.21.6–1.21.8 · NeoForge⬇ Download for 1.21.2–1.21.5 · NeoForge⬇ Download for 26.1–26.2 · Quilt⬇ Download for 1.21.9–1.21.11 · Quilt⬇ Download for 1.21.6–1.21.8 · Quilt⬇ Download for 1.21.3–1.21.5 · Quilt
I don't know my version or loader
Open the Minecraft launcher and look at the profile you play on — it names both, like fabric-loader-1.21.4. The version also shows in the bottom-right corner of the game's main menu.
No loader in the profile name? Then it's plain Minecraft, and these mods won't run — you need Fabric or NeoForge installed first.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need this on my server?
Nope! It’s 100% client-side. It won’t do anything if installed on a server.

Can my friends see the emojis?
Yes! Since these are native Unicode characters, anyone on a modern Minecraft client can see them perfectly.

How do I share my custom packs?
Just send the .yaml file found in config/emojitype/emoji_packs/. Your friends can just drop it in their folder and they're good to go.

Why no autocomplete on signs?
Minecraft’s sign and anvil interfaces are a bit more restrictive than chat. For now, just type the full keyword (like :check:) and it will convert automatically.
