Frequently asked questions

How do I turn on pseudo localization?
Open your Language settings in the Minecraft menu, scroll through the language list, and select the pseudo localization option. Your text will immediately change to strange symbols and distorted characters.
Why does my custom font look broken with this pack?
Pseudo localization uses a wide mix of international characters and symbols to stress-test your font file. If glyphs are missing or rendering incorrectly, your font doesn't support those characters yet—this is exactly what the pack is designed to catch.
What are the hash IDs and how do I use them?
Each line of text gets a unique hash identifier so you can track it back to the source file. When you see a hash ID in-game, search your resource pack or mod files for that string to find and edit the exact text.
Can I use this on multiplayer servers?
Yes, but servers using the AuthMe plugin will reject your login if you're using pseudo localization. Switch back to a normal language before joining those servers, then you can switch back after.
