Ever since Minecraft upgraded its death messages, haven't you always wanted to see the other side of the story, how it looks to the mobs? Well, now you can. This mod prints death messages to the console for EVERY living thing that dies. It kind of resembles the kill feed of fighting games like TF2 and League of Legends.
This mod also adds killing sprees for players and mobs, which display when someone gets lots of kills in a row. It sounds a bit odd, but trust me, it's pretty funny to watch.

Now updated for Minecraft 1.8!
You can get releases of the mod over on my GitHub Releases Page. It only needs to be installed on the server, but if you want death messages in singleplayer, it works on the client too.
About Death Messages
By default, death messages will display for any mob that dies to a player, another mob, or an inanimate object. You can turn each of these categories on or off as you like in the config file. I'd imagine that they could also be useful for debugging mods with lots of entities, like OreSpawn and Mo' Creatures.
About Killing Sprees
Killing sprees will happen when any mob or player gets a certain number of kills in a row without dying, by default 8. There are four levels, similar to Awesomenauts: Killing Spree, Killing Machine, Legendary, and Awesome. Each level requires twice as many kills than the last one to reach, so Killing Machine would take 16 kills, etc. You also get experience for each level of spree. There are also dying sprees, which happen when a player dies many times in a row.
Source Code
This mod is open source, you can get the source at my GitHub Repo (my GitHub username is multiplemonomials).
It also uses the open source library Evo Inflector to automatically make the names of mobs plural for killing sprees (e.g. "Creepers are on a Killing Spree!").
Awesome! I was looking for something just like this! Now I can disguise a custom npc as a player and make it be my imaginary friend in single player lol
I have a suggestion though. There should be an config option to only have death messages if mobs are named. This would be great to prevent unwanted spam and so you can just focus on named mobs.
It would be funny if you could also make certain names appear as a player listed on a server and if you spawn a mob with that name, the game would say something like "Notch joined the game". It would be a great way to troll people lol
This really needs more attention. This is so cool. Suggestion: Can you please put the kill feed up the top right so it is really like TF2?
Moar attention!!!

If I helped you in any way or agree in my ideas or posts, make sure you click that green arrow pointing up below my post or simply huggle me! I use 1.7.10 (Modded), so when I comment that I like a 1.8 mod, I will comment to downgrade to 1.7.10. I support no pics, no clicks. Suggestions that I think that are the best deserves a banner!
It is almost time to say goodbye to 1.7.10 because of the recent surge of big 1.9 mods.
Why MCreator sucks: jcm2606's file (doesn't open a new tab) He allows/welcomes anyone to link the file, so I put it here in my signature for people to know how MCreator functions. I thank jcm2606 (he's awesome) for creating the document/file and I'm just here to spread the word.
Lol, thanks to your mod, I know how poor the Squid around my area is. Some "drowned", Frozen in Icy Ooze(lycanite's mobs mod). But most importantly, some got killed by a RUBBER DUCKY.

Stop the mod thieves, for the everlasting peace!(Definitely not a Blue bomber reference)
That's pretty hard to do do, since I'd have to basically write my own version of the vanilla chat box. Maybe someday, though.
Someday..
