🌍 NPC Translator for Hypixel Skyblock & More
Language barrier should never be a problem while enjoying your favorite servers. NPC Translator is a fully customizable, intelligent client-side Fabric mod that seamlessly translates NPC chat messages, item descriptions, and GUI tooltips into your preferred language!
Built especially with heavy game modes like Hypixel SkyBlock in mind, it perfectly handles complex color codes, dynamic lore (like live Bazaar prices), and interactive chat messages.
✨ Core Features

[Translate]button will automatically appear next to NPC chat messages. - Click it to instantly translate the text!
- Fully Reversible & Safe: Click the

- Need a fresh translation? Use the "Force Re-Translate" keybind to clear the cache for that specific item.
