Language Selector

A plugin that allows players to select the language they want SourceMod to translate text into.

Translations must be provided by plugins for this to have any effect on them.

Requires at least SourceMod 1.11.

Features

• Configurable menu (modify sourcemod/configs/langselect.cfg and cfg/sourcemod/plugin.langselect.cfg).
• Saves player language setting across sessions (can be turned off).
• Optional prompt for new players to select a language (either ask once, or ask until they select something).
• Full and absolutely overkill translation support.

How to install

See the releases tab for latest download.
Extract the files (except for LICENSE.txt) from the .zip or .7z into addons/sourcemod/.

If upgrading, remember the auto-generated config file cfg/sourcemod/plugin.langselect.cfg may need to be deleted (but only if new ConVars are added).
