Complete Modpack Translation Guide

What is a Modpack Translation?

A modpack translation converts the text of modpacks containing multiple mods into another language. Unlike individual mod translations, modpacks contain unique content such as quests, guidebooks, and custom scripts that require separate translation.

The Minecraft Translation Center provides free translations for popular modpacks including ATM (All The Mods), FTB (Feed The Beast), Create series, Enigmatica, and more.

Common Issues and Solutions

Version Mismatch Warning

A 'version incompatible' warning appears when applying the resource pack.

This warning can be safely ignored. Click 'Yes' to force apply. Translation resource packs contain only text and work regardless of Minecraft version.

Some Text Not Translated

After applying the translation, some items or quests still appear in English.

If the translation rate is not 100%, some untranslated text may remain. Check the translation rate on the detail page. Also ensure the resource pack is at the top of the list.

Quests Not Showing

After applying override files, the quest book is empty or shows errors.

Verify that the modpack version matches the translation version. If the issue persists, restore your backup and try applying only the resource pack without override files.

KubeJS Error

KubeJS-related errors occur when starting the game.

Restore your backup, then apply override files excluding the kubejs folder. KubeJS scripts are sensitive to modpack updates, so versions must match exactly.
