Translator for Call of Duty – understand your teammates live

Typical situations in Call of Duty

• Warzone squads with random players from other countries – Trannel subtitles their voice chat.
• Terms like Gulag, UAV, loadout or plates stay as they are.
• Following streamers in other languages for loadouts and strategies.

Set up Trannel for Call of Duty

1. Install Trannel and start it – 30 minutes are free every week, no sign-up.
2. Choose System audio as the source. If you only want one app, pick just Call of Duty or just Discord.
3. In the Call of Duty video settings choose a borderless display mode (in Call of Duty it is called “Fullscreen Borderless Window”) instead of exclusive fullscreen – only then can Windows show the overlay above the game.
4. Press F8 to show the overlay and F9 for click-through, so your mouse goes to the game.
5. Pick the language you want to read – Trannel detects the spoken language automatically.

Call of Duty terms stay as they are

Trannel recognises when Call of Duty is running and keeps the words players actually say – such as Warzone, Black Ops, Gulag, UAV – unchanged instead of translating them literally.

Answer in their language (Beta)

With “Voice for Discord” you speak your language and your Discord group hears you translated, with a natural voice. The feature is in beta and only in the version from trannelapp.com.

Offline and separate from the game

Speech recognition and translation run on your PC; audio and text are not uploaded. Trannel does not modify Call of Duty or inject anything into it – it listens to Windows audio and shows its own window.

Call of Duty is a trademark of Activision. Trannel is an independent app and is not affiliated with, endorsed or sponsored by Activision.

Frequently asked questions

Is Trannel free for Call of Duty?

Yes. Trannel runs 30 minutes free every week – with every feature, no sign-up and no payment details. Licenses will be available soon.

Why don't I see the overlay in Call of Duty?

In exclusive fullscreen Windows cannot draw other windows above a game. Switch Call of Duty to a borderless display mode (in Call of Duty it is called “Fullscreen Borderless Window”) and press F8.

Which languages does it translate?

20 languages, including English, Spanish, Portuguese, Russian, Japanese, Korean, Chinese, Thai, Vietnamese and Turkish – in every direction.

Does Trannel touch the game files?

No. Trannel only listens to Windows audio and draws its own overlay window; it does not change or read Call of Duty's files. Whether third-party tools are allowed is up to Activision's rules.

Do I need a graphics card?

No. Trannel runs on the CPU; with an NVIDIA, AMD or Intel graphics card it is faster and can use more accurate models.
