If you prefer using commands, you can still customize everything via chat:
- Color Customization: Change your bubble's colors to match your style.
- /chatbubbles bgColor <hexCode> (Background color)
- /chatbubbles borderColor <hexCode> (Border color)
- /chatbubbles textColor <hexCode> (Text color)
- Note: Do not include the # symbol in the hex code (e.g., use FFFFFF).
- Height Offset: Adjust the distance between the bubble and your head.

- Note: Can be negative, but 2.0+ is recommended. Negative values are useful for custom models smaller than the vanilla player.

- /chatbubbles spacing <value>
- Note: Value must be between 1.0 and 10.0.
- Hide Nametag: Choose to hide your vanilla nametag while a bubble is active for a cleaner look.
