CCTFF - Custom Chat Text Formatting Framework

CCTFF (Custom Chat Text Formatting Framework) is a complete, drop-in chat enhancement system for Roblox. It gives you fully configurable player tags, dynamic leaderboard tags, and rich system messages – all driven from a single config module, with automatic DataStore support.

CCTFF replaces hard-coded colors and tags with a clean configuration table. You define roles (Developer, Owner, Tester, etc.), choose colors and styles, and the framework handles how everything appears in chat and bubbles. Tag ownership, equipped tags, and temporary tags are all saved and restored automatically.

Player Tags

• Role and status tags displayed before usernames
• Per-tag colors, text styles, and chat bubble styling
• Configurable max equipped tags and default tags
• Support for temporary tags with automatic expiration

Leaderboard Tags

• Dynamic tags that show rank (for example: “Coins #1”)
• Text templates that update as player positions change
• Ideal for competitive and progression-based games

System Messages

• Server-side announcements, alerts, success, and error lines
• Dedicated system tags (System, Alert, Info, Success, Error)
• Supports rich text coloring inside messages
• Optional per-player visibility preferences
