You can run ForgeBukkit with his Essentials port. It includes Essentials Chat which allows coloring names.
Forge Essentials implemented this feature yesterday. It works on prefix, chat and signsSo hang on in there for a little there will be a release soon
Is that current build in a dev build, or semi-stable version yet?
Need a little help understanding chat colors. I have the Essentials Chat installed on my FTB Direwolf server and can change the color of 'prefix' in ./ForgeEssentials/chat.cfg. But that changes EVERYONE's prefix to the same color. What I'm looking for is the ability to change the prefix based on the player's Group (and when I say group, I'm using Fihgu's Permissions mod).
Example Messages:
[Owner]<username> <message>
[Admin]<username> <message>
[Mod]<username> <message>
<username> <message> <== standard player
I've attempted to modify ./world/FEData/ForgeConfig/PlayerInfo/<username>.cfg by modifying Srefix=%red[Owner]%reset, but that simply echoed the literal as %red[Owner]%reset<username> <message>.
I also attempted to add the following to <username>.cfg in hopes it would override the global chat config. But no luck.
Chat {
S:chatformat=%red%prefix%reset<%username> %white%message
}
Q. How do I accomplish per group prefix colorization using Fihgu's Permissions mod?
Thanks in advanced for your support.

I'm almost sure that the issue you're having is because ForgeEssentials has it's own permissions, and the chat options per person/per group are keyed to that setup. They took the bulk permissions out of the pack for two days(5th & 6th) to completely redo/fix them and they should be back in on the 7th, with the configs to set them up correctly.
Thanks, Lakart.
I was able to apply the latest ForgeEssentials-<core|modules>--1.4.6-0.1.0.215 and I noticed the ArrayIndexOutOfBounds exceptions were gone.
Now I have another question, where might I find documentation on configuration and commands? The github wiki page is blank (https://github.com/ForgeEssentials/ForgeEssentialsMain/wiki/Permissions).
