I have no idea what you just said (I don't know anything about blockmaker stuff). I changed very few things so I would not expect that I would have significantly changed the plugin's behavior.
Your request to remove xpmod.inc required me to remove the bm_set_future_layout() functions which I can only guess is what is causing the issue.
I've re-updated the previously attached plugin to add back the xpmod stuff. I also made the change for color chat for the chat message that I added as part of your original request.
