ServerLocalizer

The mod intercepts server packets and sends their text to large language model APIs, then shows the translated result in the game. Item names and lore are translated automatically, and chat messages are translated when the player clicks the button next to them. Color codes and text formatting are kept on both items and chat, and translation results can appear word by word while the rest of the response is still pending.

Results are stored in a cache so repeated text does not trigger another request, and several translation requests run at once on a thread pool. A graphical settings screen lets players change the options, and the main command is serverlocalizer. The mod is aimed at players who join international servers and want to follow what is said and shown there.

The server needs the mod to run, while players may add it or leave it out. Files are published for Forge 1.8.9 only. The latest file is 0.4.6-beta, released 2025-06-17 on the beta channel. The project is released under the MIT License and is open source, with public source code and an issue tracker.
