Overview
Language and Profanity Filter is the ultimate text filter for your project. Monitoring and controlling user generated content is one of the main challenges when creating online games. With in-game chats and forums, player-to-player (P2P) interaction and web/game integration being very common these days, it’s the game developer’s responsibility to ensure a safe and (usually) children-friendly environment.
With that in mind, I’d like to introduce my latest Unity Asset – Language and Profanity Filter. Language and Profanity Filter is the ultimate text filter for your project. It provides developers with a variety of filters to filter out unwanted content from their games, thus providing a safer and friendlier user experience. Language and Profanity Filter comes with a set of predefined filters, including bad words and profanities filters. These filters come with support for various languages, such as English, German, French and Russian. Those filters come with a set of predefined blocked words, and developers can easily add more words, or even create their own languages.

In addition, several additional filters are provided out-of-the-box, such as emails and web addresses filters, a punctuation filter (to prevent ASCII arts and excessive!!! punctuation!!! usage!!!)
Finally, the asset comes with a generic regular expression (regex) filter, allowing developers to identify and filter any unwanted content.
Language and Profanity Filter supports replacing filtered content with a placeholder (e.g., ***) or by adding a prefix/suffix (such as <b> and </b>).
