This addon takes your non-command chat and translates it into Dwarven speak, or at least into an Irish/piratey-accented form of English that resembles what an English-speaking Dwarf would be expected to say. You can turn this on and off on the fly without removing the addon. You can also choose to only translate specific sentences you write, or only for specific channels like /guild and /say.
This addon requires the LibSlash addon to function.
- To prevent an individual line of text from being translated, put either a ' ' (space) or '((' (double parentheses) before the text.
- To force translation on a line of text while translation is disabled, put an '_' (underscore) before the text.
The different commands:
/dwarf on
/dwarf off
/dwarf disablechan
/dwarf enablechan
/dwarf help
See the readme file for details.
Original credit goes to tmpst of the original German/English "Orcanizer" addon, and to Shryke of the redone OrcTalk addon.
-Fixed a bug where words with certain endings would not translate correctly if done completely in uppercase
-Cleaned up some code
-More vocabulary changes.
Installation Guide
- Exit "Warhammer Online" completely
- Download the mod you want to install
- Make a folder on your desktop called "My Mods"
- Save the .zip/.rar files to this folder.
- If, when you try to download the file, it automatically "opens" it... you need to RIGHT click on the link and "save as..." or "Save Target As".
- Extract the file - commonly known as 'unzipping'
Do this ONE FILE AT A TIME!
- Windows
- Windows XP has a built in ZIP extractor. Double click on the file to open it, inside should be the file or folders needed. Copy these outside to the "My Mods" folder.
- WinRAR: Right click the file, select "Extract Here"
- WinZip: You MUST make sure the option to "Use Folder Names" is CHECKED or it will just extract the files and not make the proper folders how the Authors designed
- Verify your WAR Installation Path
That is where you are running WAR from and THAT is where you need to install your mods.
- Move to the Addon folder
- Open your Warhammer Online folder. (default is C:\Program Files\Warhammer Online\)
- Go into the "Interface" folder.
- Go into the "AddOns" folder.
- In a new window, open the "My Mods" folder.
- The "My Mods" folder should have the "Addonname" folder in it.
- Move the "Addonname" folder into the "AddOns" folder
- Start Warhammer Online
Translations
When you download a mod, please be sure that the mod is compatible with your translation of WAR. Some mods only work on the US versions, while some only work on some of the various European versions. These variations are called "Localizations".
