Installation:
Babel can be installed like any normal mod; download through Vortex or drag and drop into your plugins directory.
Removal:
Babel does not have any additional steps to take before removing; it can be safely removed at any time.
Usage:
Babel itself provides little to actually do, as it is intended to be a library for other mods. However, in order for those mods to provide output in your desired language, you must first select the language you prefer. use /babel in the game chat or console to open the configuration menu. In this menu, you can select one of the registered languages, as well as enable/disable precaching of translation files (see below).
Babel comes with English, Spanish, French, and Portuguese languages, but it is still up to the individual mod authors to support them (and/or any other languages that could be registered separately or bundled in the future).
Precaching:
Babel will cache every translation it fetches for a mod; future requests for the same line by the same mod will be much faster as a result. However, you can also select to enable precaching, which will make Babel cache a mod's entire translation table when it is registered. This can GREATLY increase the game's initial loading time, depending on the user's computer/phone and the size of the translation table, so it is disabled by default.
