+**1.6.6**
+- Disabled entity cramming now that true-og/ChunkCap-OG and true-og/MobLimiter-OG establish a ceiling.
+- Split string-based player messaging into miniplaceholder expanding and non-expanding APIs.
+- Add `trueogRawMessage(Player, String)` and `trueogRawMessage(UUID, String)` for sending unexpanded or pre-expanded text with TrueOG formatting.
+
 **1.6.5**
 - Remove all PlaceholderAPI references and support MiniPlaceholders only.
 - Always register built-in MiniPlaceholders without a config toggle.

+Sends a message to a player identified by their UUID with TrueOG formatting but without MiniPlaceholder expansion. Useful when the Bukkit Player object is not available. Supports modern color codes and legacy Bukkit color codes (case-insensitive). If the UUID resolves to an online player, the message is sent immediately on the caller's current thread.
