Skyblock Translator
by fridorin
Skyblock Translator, a client-side Fabric mod, translates Hypixel SkyBlock chat, item lore and other in-game text into English or Russian while the game keeps running.
What it does
Russian is the default target language, English can be selected instead, and offline translation covers more than 30 other languages. Translation runs on a dedicated background thread pool, so network requests do not stall the game or cause frame drops while a translation is pending.
Hypixel SkyBlock formatting is handled specifically, which generic translation mods do not do. Clickable links such as auction links, profile IDs and co-op invites keep working, and the translated text appears as a sub-line under the original message. Spam such as combat damage numbers, crit prefixes and server IP addresses is filtered out to conserve API limits. The mod needs Fabric API and YetAnotherConfigLib (YACL) to run, and Mod Menu is optional. It is open source under the MIT License and published for Fabric only, with files for 1.21.11 – 26.3, the latest being 1.2.0 for 26.3.
Key features
Offline translation
Item stats, common phrases and enchantments are translated from local dictionary tables, so they need no connection.
Sub-line display
The translation is shown on a line below the original message, and the original text stays readable and clickable.
Spam filtering
Combat numbers, crit prefixes and similar lines from other mods can be filtered out of chat to keep it clean.
Shift bypass
Holding Shift shows the original English for chat or items at any time, and the panic button works instantly.
Bounded memory use
Caches use a bounded LRU design, so memory stays stable during long play sessions.
