About this project

What does Stenographer add?

Stenographer

Stenographer automatically changes Minecraft language into your locale as you launch.

Due to some bad locale settings made by some launchers, Stenographer has to fix the language code by the specified country you are in.

Below is the list of supporting on different launchers:

Launcher Support
Hello Minecraft! Launcher ✓ Launcher
Prism Launcher × Launcher - ✓ Fixed
ManyMC / PolyMC / MultiMC ? Unknown - ✓ Fixed

Why?

For many players, it is just a waste of time to change the game language to their locales every time they launch Minecraft, as modifying the game options file is quite a hassle.

Stenographer is very lightweight that it only has one mixin class, but providing a smooth and convenient first-sight game experience.

How?

Stenographer modifies the game language only when it is English, and is not the same as your locale. It does this everytime you launch Minecraft.

If the language doesn't exist, it will just be English. If you want to disable the function, just uninstall Stenographer.

Enjoy at your locale!
