Frequently asked questions

How do I turn on the extended chat history?
The mod extends your chat history automatically once it's installed — there's no toggle or config option to enable. Just launch the game and your chat will retain far more messages than vanilla's default.
How far back can I scroll in chat now?
You can scroll back through up to 16,384 messages, compared to vanilla's limit of 100. Use the mouse scroll wheel or Page Up/Page Down while the chat is open to move through older messages.
Why does my chat still only show 100 messages?
This usually means the mod isn't actually loading — check that it's in your mods folder and matches your game version. If you're on a server, some server-side chat plugins can also interfere with client-side history.
Does this mod work on servers or only singleplayer?
It works on both, since the history is stored client-side. You'll keep the extended history on any server you join, as long as the mod is installed on your client.
