Português-BR | English

Automatic chat translation for PEAK (via PeakTextChat).

Screenshots

Incoming message translation

A player with Portuguese as native language receives an English message, with translation appearing below:

Settings used in screenshot:

• General → Target Language: Portuguese (pt-BR) (your native language)
• Other player writes in English → you see it translated to Portuguese automatically

Outgoing translation (/tr command)

Type /tr followed by your message to send only the translated version:

Settings used in screenshot:

• General → Target Language: Portuguese (pt-BR) (your native language — source)
• Outgoing → Translate My Messages To: English (en) (language others receive)

Before (you type in your language)	After (sent to chat translated)

How it works

Incoming messages (automatic)

• Every message from other players is automatically translated to your language
• Original message stays visible; translation appears below with [TR-XX] prefix
• Configure: General → Target Language = your native/preferred language

Outgoing messages (command /tr)

• Type /tr your message → sends only the translated version (original is blocked)
• Source language = General → Target Language (your language)
• Target language = Outgoing → Translate My Messages To (what others receive)
• Works for any language pair supported by Google Translate/MyMemory

Whisper translation (TinyTweaks)

• /tr /w player message → sends only translated whisper to target
• Purple formatting with (secret msg for you) matching TinyTweaks style

Settings (Mod Config / Gale)

Quick setup guide

1. General → Target Language = the language YOU read/write in (your native language)
2. Outgoing → Translate My Messages To = the language OTHERS should receive your messages in
3. Use /tr message to send translated messages
4. Use /tr /w player message for translated whispers
