One powerful feature of AdvancedChat is its message filtering. There are two main categories of filtering for now, replacing, and notifying. Within each filter you can choose if the filter looks for certain words and then replaces them, or if it finds words and plays a sound effect for you.

With this mod you can block/replace full lines of messages, or just certain words. Some examples of this would be to color your IGN, notify if someone messages you, or block sensitive messages if you're recording.

The best feature is probably the chat tabs, you can now sort your messages into different tabs.

Another feature is a full screen to show you what messages you have received. The ChatLogScreen is very useful if you want to see specific messages from a person. Each message also comes with a timestamp that is customizable.

MaLiLib and the Fabric API are required for AdvancedChat

More information on customization is available on the GitHub repository. Please submit any features or bugs to the issue tracker!
