Texture Locale Redirector

**Texture Locale Redirector** adds native multi-language texture support to Minecraft resource packs. By extending vanilla resource loading mechanism, this mod allows you to provide language-specific textures within a single resource pack. It solves the problem where localized textures (with text or symbols) for one language may negatively affect players in other languages. ## Usage Follow these three simple steps to enable multi-language textures: 1. **Install the mod**: Place this mod in your `mods` folder. 2. **Create a resource pack**: Organize your localized textures according to the required folder structure. 3. **Start the game**: Enable the resource pack and switch to the corresponding language in Minecraft. ## Resource Pack Structure Example Inside your resource pack, store localized textures under `assets//textures//`. - `` is the namespace — `minecraft` for vanilla, or the modid for mods. - `` is the language code, such as `zh_cn` (Simplified Chinese) or `ja_jp` (Japanese). **Note:** The relative path of the texture to be replaced must match the original texture path. ``` ResourcePackName/ └── assets/ └── minecraft (namespace)/ └── textures/ ├── zh_cn/ # Simplified Chinese textures │ ├── block/ │ │ └── dirt.png # Replaced dirt texture │ └── item/ │ └── diamond_sword.png # Replaced diamond sword texture └── ja_jp/ # Japanese textures └── item/ └── diamond_sword.png # Replaced diamond sword texture ``` ## Performance This mod is heavily optimized and should have negligible performance impact: * Works **only** when the current language is not `en_us`, meaning no effect for English players. * Implements an **advanced caching system** to drastically reduce unnecessary disk I/O. * Clears cache upon language change or resource reload, ensuring textures are updated immediately. * Automatically releases cache memory when system memory is low to prevent lag. * If a resource pack has no language-specific texture folder, no replacement scan is performed — avoiding unnecessary work. * Does not interfere with the normal operation of other resource packs. ## License This project is open-sourced under the [MIT License]([LICENSE](https://github.com/Wulian233/TextureLocaleRedirector/blob/1.20.5%2B/LICENSE)).
