ZenChatHistory is a Velocity plugin designed for Minecraft clients running version 1.20.2 and higher. It preserves the player’s visible chat history when they switch between backend servers through a proxy, preventing the conversation window from being cleared during network transfers. This is especially useful for hubs, minigame networks, and communities where players move frequently between game modes while relying on consistent communication.
The plugin addresses configuration and chat session changes introduced in newer Minecraft versions. It was tested with 1.20.4 clients and requires PacketEvents v2.2.0 on the Velocity proxy. Mojang fixed the underlying behavior in Minecraft 1.20.6, so ZenChatHistory is no longer maintained. At BoxToPlay, we present it as a focused compatibility solution for older supported setups.
