Is it possible to mod the chat so if it recognises german it translates to english ? Is this something easy to create.?
Im getting fed up of not knowing whats being said/missing out on trades. 80 % of chat in pve europe seems to be german right now.
Hello!
Some time ago I was researching this idea and checked how people implement such mods for Minecraft and some other games.
It might be possible but creating and supporting such mod is a nightmare. I mean, the free translation services (such as Google Translate) usually have a lot of limitations in order to prevent unintended use and they require a captcha (which should we displayed in a browser, not in the game) or simply banning API users that abuse their free API.
Plus it requires HTTP client support that is currently not implemented in the game scripting API. We're planning to add support for it in the near future as it will allow creating some complex mods that interact with the world beyond the game server.
Regards!
