Minecraft Version

You can run ChatControl on the following Minecraft versions below. Please note that the x stands for any sub-version.

Many issues are often caused by incompatible other plugins such as ProtocolLib and not by your Minecraft version. Make sure all dependencies are up-to-date. We reserve the right to close tickets with startup log with errors from other plugins since they might interfere.
