Plague’s Chat Timestamps Mod FAQ
10 questions players actually ask, answered.
How do I turn on timestamps in chat?
Timestamps are enabled by default when you install the mod. If they're not showing, open the mod's config file and ensure the main toggle is set to enabled, then restart your game.
Where do I find the config file to change timestamp settings?
The config file is located in your `.minecraft/config` folder with a name related to the mod. Open it with any text editor to adjust format, colors, and display options.
Can I use 24-hour time instead of 12-hour?
Yes, the mod includes a 24-hour format option in the config file. Change the time format setting and restart your game to apply the change.
How do I add milliseconds to my timestamps?
Enable the milliseconds option in the config file by setting it to true, then restart your game. Your timestamps will now display millisecond precision.
Why isn't my timezone showing correctly?
The mod uses automatic timezone detection based on your system settings. If it's wrong, check that your computer's timezone is set correctly in your operating system.
Can I make timestamps bold or italic?
Yes, the mod supports text styling options like bold, italics, and underline in the config file. Set these options to true for the styles you want.
How do I change the color of my timestamps?
The config file includes color settings where you can input hex color codes or color names. Change the color value and restart your game to see the update in chat.
Will this mod work with other chat mods?
Most chat mods are compatible, but conflicts can occur if multiple mods modify chat rendering. Test with your other mods enabled; if there are issues, check mod compatibility forums.
Does this mod affect server performance or lag?
The mod has minimal performance impact since it only formats chat messages on your client side. You won't experience noticeable lag from timestamps alone.
Can I hide timestamps for specific players or messages?
The mod timestamps all chat messages by default with no built-in filtering per player. You would need to disable timestamps entirely or use additional mods for selective filtering.
