? ChatTranslator - Real-Time Chat Translation for Minecraft Servers

By Mateitaa1

Break language barriers and connect players from around the world with the most customizable and flexible Minecraft chat translation plugin out there — ChatTranslator!
? Why Choose ChatTranslator?

In an increasingly global Minecraft community, it's more important than ever to make your server inclusive, accessible, and user-friendly — no matter what language your players speak. ChatTranslator brings players together by translating chat messages in real time, all based on their selected language preferences.

From casual players to international communities, this plugin is built to support everybody. Let's dive into what makes ChatTranslator a must-have for your server:

? Core Features

**? Real-Time Translation**
Automatically translates player chat messages into each player's preferred language. No commands needed — it just works.

**? Multi-Engine Support**
Choose your favorite translation service:

    **? Ollama (Local LLM)** – Runs locally using models like llama3, mistral, or gemma. Private, free, and fast. Perfect for servers without internet access.

    **? Google Translate** – Leverage Google Cloud's powerful translation API for accuracy and scale.

    **? LibreTranslate** – A great free and open-source alternative.

**?️ Beautiful GUI Language Selector**
Players can choose their language with an intuitive, customizable GUI using themed Minecraft items. First join? No problem — the selector can auto-launch!

**? Translation Format Customization**
Show translated messages with or without the original message. Fully configurable message formats, prefixes, and visual styling.

**? Language Support Built-In**
Supports 15+ languages out of the box:
English, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Chinese, Russian, Arabic, Portuguese, Hindi, Turkish, Swedish, Dutch — and more easily added!

**? Smart Caching**
With a configurable cache size, you can balance performance and accuracy by storing recent translations.

⚙️ Admin Features & Commands

    /translate toggle – Enable or disable translation for yourself.

    /translate service – Switch between Google, LibreTranslate, or Ollama instantly.

    /translate clearcache – Wipe the translation cache with a single command.

    Full permission control system, including:

        chattranslator.use, chattranslator.admin, chattranslator.bypass

        Exclude specific players from translation (chattranslator.notranslate)

? Fully Configurable

No two servers are the same — that’s why ChatTranslator is designed with total customization in mind. From the GUI layout and materials to advanced features like server message translation and plugin message filtering, it’s all in your hands.
