Someone to translate or a type of function?

Translate like text for the chat for localization. Also gotta go, I’ll read replies after school.

A self-translation?
For example: an English person writes in English, and if there is a Spanish person, the message appears in Spanish or vice versa.
No. Translation for the chat itself, to get by with localization I’m using a fork of the default LocalizationTable Roblox included but I want to add text for some features like the group chats.
Like ‘Invite your friends here’ and stuff like that. I am currently using icons to get by this language barrier but for features like the group chats that’s a bit difficult to describe with only
icons.
I could use Google translate which is what I did for the ‘edited’ stamp but that’s only a temporary solution. Google translate isn’t very reliable way of translating to other languages in my opinion.

Effects, particles, moving gradients, etc.
Also, translators should be relatively easy to find here on the Talent Hub. You could make a post looking Spanish or French translators, or something like that.
Created a draft for a group chat creation menu:
Feedback? (This whole group chat thing will also be toggleable)
Edit: completely forgot to add a group icon to this menu

I would add the photo of the winged avatar next to the name, in case there are two players with the same names on the server.

Probably going to use a thing like:
Player (@ActualUsername)
(in the case they have a display name)

I recommend you to put a DisplayOrder in the GUI.
I have tried the first version and it has that problem, if there is a gui the chat comes out from the bottom when it has to come out from the top so that it does not get in the way when writing.

This is really well made, good job!
I have found a bug:
The custom bubble chat doesn’t seem to respect the voice chat bubble.

Yea, I don’t know how to fix it. Hoping this might be fixed with the ‘AlwaysOnTop’ property I’m shipping in the next update with some checks to make sure the billboard is visible.
Also, will make my own voice chat button thing in the future if Roblox adds API for that.

It looks like I’ll have some version of release functional in early to late March. I’m aware this seems like a long time, but I have some really cool features I want to add to make this chat even more unique.
One of them being:
- Minigames
You will have the option to toggle minigames in the settings and then users can create them through the chat and play them entirely within the chat.
Examples would be like:
- Uno
- Rock paper scissors
As always,
Polls
Would this be a nice addition to the chat?
- Yes
- No

I’ve been working on an update and after Roblox updated, most of my scrolling frames stopped working properly. Can anyone else reproduce this in the testing game? Primarily the things like the autofill with ‘:sunglass’
No clue if this is an engine bug or not, I haven’t made any updates to the UI.
I personally think that putting mini games in a chat system just doesn’t go well together. I mean, basically turning the chat into a separate game?? I think that you should not implement this.
I have some features I think would be cool and keep the chat as a chat and not a game:
- Make a poll, similar to the ones on devforum.
- Global chat, I’m not sure if you already said something about this above.
- Perhaps a quick chat option? I know that whenever playing a pvp game this could be helpful.
- If you decide to make a quick chat you could make the option to save quick chats into your chat, so that it saves across games and you only have the quick chat messages that you would actually use.

I personally agree that the chat should be a chat and the minigames would sort of sidetrack the viewers from the actual game. I also think your suggestions sound like they would go pretty well with this particular plugin.
