when trying to use VelocityChat on my velocity server I get this

Internal Exception:
io.netty.handler.codec.DecoderException: Failed to decode packet 'clientbound/minecraft:system_chat'

when i remove velocitychat everything works again just fine. idk what is causing the issue but nothing i do will fix it. please look into this thanks

playing on minecraft version 1.21.4
