Busy server chat can bury useful messages in seconds. Longer Chat History Mod raises Minecraft's chat history limit from 100 to over 65000 messages, making it much easier to scroll back through conversations, announcements, and spam-heavy moments without losing context. It is a client-side mod, so only your installation needs it. On Modrinth, the project by TheOriginalGolem has 3493675 downloads and was last updated on 2025-04-08.
Key Features
- Massively larger chat backlog: Increases the chat history length from 100 to over 65000 messages, which helps keep older chat lines available for much longer.
- Client-side use: Only you need the mod installed, so it can be used on any server from the client side.
