Getting Started

Requirements

• Minecraft 1.8.9
• Forge 11.15.1.2318
• Java 8
• One API key (OpenAI or Claude)

Install

1. Build the project or download a release .jar.
2. Copy the jar to %APPDATA%/.minecraft/mods.
3. Launch Minecraft with the Forge 1.8.9 profile.

First run (5 minutes)

1. Open the MineGlot menu from the in-game GUI (main screen).
2. Set your API key and pick provider + model.
3. Set default language (what you read) and target language (what you write with /trs).
4. Optional: Target players → add players whose chat you want auto-translated.
5. Test: /translate Bonjour

Tip — If nothing happens, verify the API key, provider, model, and selected languages.

More detail — Read How It Works for commands vs auto chat.
