Chat translation plugin?

Anyone know of a plugin that can translate chat language? I have players on my server that don't speak English. Just a thought, i know this isn't easy. I checked the available plugins and didn't see anything.

 

Never saw anything like that. Should be possible though.

 

Shouldn't this be in the Plugin Requests sub-forum? :3

 

It would be possible with google translate's api, but they charge a fee to use it.

 

Would this be of any help?

Might be worth a try, though. I'll take a crack at it.

EDIT: only flaw I see with this api: you can't tell what language is being spoke/typed, and you have to tell it what to translate it from and to

EDIT 2: nevermind, found it in the source, will begin working on it now. Just need someone who speaks another language now...

 

Sorry, i didn't see the plugin requests forum. Hope this is not a problem.

 

Good too see this is getting worked on, would be a great asset for some servers.

 

I think I recall the name BableCraft...

EDIT: Actually it was BabelCraft. Here: http://forums.bukkit.org/threads/ch...chat-language-translation-and-api-1240.10839/

Should I keep working on what I was doing I wonder...?

 

Thanks!
