Frequently asked questions
What does Vault Patcher actually do in my game?
It replaces hardcoded text inside other mods with localization strings, so text that normally ignores your language setting can be translated. It's a library mod, so it adds no items, blocks, or world content on its own.
How do I get started with Vault Patcher after installing it?
Just install it alongside the mods you want to translate and launch the game. Vault Patcher loads its patches automatically, so there's nothing to configure before your first launch.
Where do I put my own translation patches?
Place your patch files in the Vault Patcher config or resource folder that the mod reads on startup, following the same structure as the existing patches. The mod picks them up on the next game launch.
Why isn't Vault Patcher changing any text in my game?
The most common causes are a patch that doesn't match the target mod's exact string, the target mod not being loaded, or the patch file being in the wrong folder. Check that the mod you want translated is actually installed and that your patch targets its exact hardcoded text.
