[How to] Translate pokemob names without changing the minecraft language to en_US - Pokecube-Development/Pokecube-Issues-and-Wiki GitHub Wiki

If you are playing Minecraft in English but are used to different Pokemob and Move names (e.g. German, French, etc.) you can change these without changing your Minecraft language.

Currently there are two ways to change a pokemob's name or a move name to another language:

  1. Installing a resource pack
  2. Customizing the data inside pokecube.jar

1. Installing a resource pack

  1. Get one of the translation resource pack from pokecube-translation-packs
  2. Drop the resource pack in your .minecraft/resourcepacks directory
  3. Activate the resource pack in minecraft

Done! Note that these packs might not be 100% complete as they rely on translations by pokeapi.co You can see the amount of translations done per pack on the release page of each pack.

E.g. for the german pack, which is currently missing one mob translation and 65 move translations.

---------- Build Summary pokecube-translation-de-3.7.0-2021-01-11 ----------

        Missing mobs  : 1/1133
        Missing items : 0/0
        Missing moves : 65/832

Total translations missing: 66/1965

2. Customize jar data

  1. open your "pokecube-mobs.jar" with 7zip
  2. Navigate to "/assets/pokecube_mobs/lang" folder
  3. Extract the en_US.lang file to a folder and open it
  4. Customize, Save and replace the original file
- pkmn.Bulbasaur.name=Bulbasaur
+ pkmn.Bulbasaur.name=YOUR LANGUAGE

You can change all other .lang files in the same way.
