LanguageReloadUnofficial
by Yuqi154
Language Reload Unofficial, a Forge and NeoForge fork of LanguageReload, changes how a client switches and searches languages without reloading resource packs.
What it does
Switching languages no longer triggers a full resource pack reload. The language menu gains a search box, and pressing F3 + J reloads languages while Shift + F3 + J cycles through them.
The behavior can be turned off in the mod options reached through Mod Menu, or directly in the config file. If options.txt has no lang: entry, the mod detects a language automatically.
Only the client needs the mod, so a server does not have to run it. Builds exist for 1.20.1, 1.21, 1.21.1 and 1.21.3, with Forge files for 1.20.1 and NeoForge files for 1.21.3. The code is open source under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only, and source code and an issue tracker are public.
Key features
Fast language switching
Changing the active language takes effect without reloading the resource packs.
Language search box
A search field in the language menu narrows the list of languages as the player types.
Multiple language selection
Several languages can be active together, with a fallback order set by their position in the list.
Multilingual item search
Search in the creative inventory and recipe book matches names in any selected language.
Hotkeys for reloading
F3 + J reloads languages and Shift + F3 + J cycles through them.
Compatibility
Latest build for each game version and loader.
Only full game releases are shown. This mod publishes no snapshot builds.
Use cases
Mixed-language play
A player who reads two languages can keep both active, so items show the first available translation.
Who it’s for: Players who run Forge or NeoForge clients for 1.20.1, 1.21, 1.21.1 or 1.21.3 and switch languages often or want to search items in more than one language.
