About this Mod

Welcome to Dreamcraft Network's NameColors Mod!

This mod allows you to personalize your in-game identity by adding customizable username colors to both chat messages and the player tab list.

Simply type the command /namecolor in-game to open a menu of available colors. Select one, and your username will instantly update—your choice is saved automatically and will persist across sessions!

📦 Available Versions

Dreamcraft NameColors is available for the following Minecraft versions:

Minecraft 1.20.1

(More Versions Coming Soon)

Note: Always download the mod version that matches your Minecraft version.

📁 Configuration Files

The mod uses two main configuration files:

config/dreamcraft_name_colors-common.toml — Define or modify the list of available colors.
config/set-namecolors.json — Stores each player’s chosen color (updated automatically when they use /namecolor).
🎨 Customizing Colors

Want to add your own color? Just edit the TOML file! Colors are defined using standard hex codes.

Example: dreamcraft_name_colors-common.toml (default configuration)

[colors]
# Define custom named colors. Format: "colorName=#RRGGBB"
# (Hex codes may include or omit the '#' prefix)
namedColors = [
  "blue=#0000FF",
  "red=#FF0000",
  "green=#00FF00",
  "orange=#FFA500",
  "pink=#FFC0CB",
  "gray=#808080",
  "black=#000000",
  "white=#FFFFFF",
  "yellow=#FFFF00",
  "gold=#FFD700",
  "aqua=#00FFFF"
]

💡 Tip: To add a new color, just append an entry like "magenta=#FF00FF" to the list and restart the game (or reload configs if your mod supports it).
💾 Player Data Example

When a player selects a color, their preference is saved by UUID in the JSON file:

Example: set-namecolors.json

  "players": {
    "380df991-f603-344c-a090-369bad2a924a": {
      "color": "#00FFFF",
