Hello I'm creating a Runescape Private Server which is coded in java.

I was wondering if i tried to create a launcher for the client of my private server.
Would it be possible to create a chat system in the Launcher which you're able to talk to the people in-game with? Like for example the Blizzard Launcher has a chat system included would it be possible to create a similar Launcher idea in java?

Sorry if this sounds totally noobish but i'm new and just hoping to learn and work on such fun projects :)

I'm using Eclipse!

What I have tried:

Currently tried nothing just an idea of what might be possible

Possible? Sure.

How? Don't know. If you're talking about transferring your char to "in game", and the game already supports its own chat, you're going to have to understand exactly how the game sets up its chat session and its protocols. I can't give you resource to figure this out because chances are really good that it's not documented anywhere.

If you're just looking to maintain the chat in the launcher only, there's tons of chat examples all over the web. You're going to need your own chat server though.
