LinguaChat makes your communication in Minecraft accessible in any language, automatically translating chat messages without interrupting gameplay!
You can configure the translation directions for both sides (Client/Server) in the configuration file See description below.
For official Minecraft Launcher:
mods folder:%APPDATA%\.minecraft\mods~/.minecraft/mods~/Library/Application Support/minecraft/modsFor Prism Launcher and other instance-based launchers:
Final step:
When properly configured, the mod automatically translates messages:
Player1: привет
[Chat for you]: hello
Player2: hello
[Chat for you]: привет[!TIP] The original text of the message is available by hovering over the translated message!
Mod settings are accessible via the K key in-game.
You can also edit the file directly: config/linguachat.json
