About this Mod

Private Chat

📬 Private Chat

Private Chat adds modern direct messages (DMs) to Minecraft multiplayer servers with a clean UI and instant notifications.

When another player messages you, you receive an in-game pop-up notification with sound — so you never miss a message while playing.

Open the private chat menu using the Y key (fully configurable), select a player from the online list, and start chatting privately.
Unread messages are clearly marked with a green dot, and you can instantly reply using the R key.

The mod also includes Do Not Disturb (DND) mode and player muting, giving you full control over your private conversations.

Frequently Asked Questions

Private Chat server crashes on startup – what to do?

Most common cause: wrong forge version or insufficient RAM. Check the server log (latest.log) for "OutOfMemoryError" or "Mixin" errors. With Mado Hosting: ensure at least 3 GB RAM is allocated and the loader matches the mod version (1.20.6). You can switch loaders with one click in the panel.

Is Private Chat compatible with forge?

Private Chat officially supports forge for Minecraft 1.20.6, 1.20.5, 1.20.4. The Mado dashboard automatically detects incompatible loader combinations.

Server lagging with Private Chat – how to optimize performance?

Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if Private Chat consumes the most tick time. Common fixes: reduce server view-distance to 8-10, install "performant" or "starlight" as supplementary mods on Forge. With Mado Hosting, your server runs on NVMe SSDs with dedicated CPU cores for minimal latency.
