CrimsonKiller
This mod has been designed to provide an incredibly in-depth and detailed customization of the kill feed messages that can easily be tailored to any server's needs. You want to make sure the kill feed messages are as detailed as possible, so you can easily track who killed who and when with any amount of thematic flair as to your liking.
You can toggle each message type on or off in the config file. You can configure how each parameter appears. You can change the display names of V Bloods and Regions. You can use this for PvE and/or PvP. You could even go so far as to only broadcast when someone took the cowardly route of killing their enemy in their slumber.
CrimsonMods is happy to present the configurable CrimsonKiller.
Config
Note: All JSON config files will automatically reload on server when changed without requiring server restart or any commands in-game.
CrimsonKiller.cfg
Your cfg file is the basic configuration of how CrimsonKiller will behave on the server and what messages will trigger kill feed to appear under what scenarios. Make sure to double check that default settings are what you want or change them to better suit your server's needs.

Parameter Embedding
You can embed many things into parameters using the Parameters options in CrimsonKiller.cfg for example you can set it to have Rich Text values or even additional words.
A common case for this is to conditionally hide formatting words in the Region parameters. In the following example you could have the world "in" as part of the parameter.
RegionLong = in <i>{region.long}</i> which would format into in Silverlight Hills for kills in that region. But if RaidsHideRegion = true then it will exclude the "in" as well since it's embedded to the parameter.
