Arma Reforger server addon: translates in-game chat in real time per player’s client language and delivers the result to each recipient. Works with any OpenAI-compatible API (local LLM, Ollama, DeepSeek, etc.).
Features
- One translation per language: Recipients’ languages are collected first; one API request per distinct language, then the same translation is delivered to all players with that language—fewer calls and lower latency.
- All game languages: Uses engine language codes from
WidgetManager.GetLanguage(e.g. en_us, zh_cn, ru_ru, uk_ua). - Channel toggles: Enable/disable translation per channel (global, group, faction, vehicle, local, direct) via RTCT.JSON; same as game channel types.
- Circuit breaker & rate limit: Stops requesting after consecutive failures; per-sender rate limit to prevent abuse.
- Fallback on failure: On timeout, parse error, or API down, players receive the original message; configurable retries for transient errors.
- Cache: Same source + language pair is cached; optional persistence across restarts.
- Config hot reload: Changes to RTCT.JSON are picked up automatically when
EnableAutoReloadis on. - Heartbeat: Optional periodic ping to the API; on success, the circuit breaker is reset so translation resumes.
- Admin multi-language line: If the sender is an admin, they get one extra line with original + Chinese + English + Russian (visible only to them).
Installation
Dedicated Server
- Copy the addon into the server’s
addonsfolder and enable it in the server config or launch options. - Place or generate
RTCT.JSONin the server’s profile directory (typically$profile:RTCT.JSON). - Ensure the server can reach your translation API (OpenAI, self-hosted LLM, or proxy).
Config location
Config file is RTCT.JSON on the server (in the engine profile). Clients do not read or write it; they report their UI language to the server via RPC on join or when sending messages.
