Devsoy Turkish: Quest Guide (for Questie)

Turkish language pack for Questie

A pack that translates Questie's interface into Turkish: settings, tracker, map tooltips and the Journey window. It does not modify Questie; it uses Questie's official channel for external translations.

What it does

Questie is a quest helper that shows quests on the map. Its interface comes in several languages, but Turkish is not one of them. This pack fills the gap: all 1,146 of Questie's interface strings are in Turkish, so the settings window, the quest tracker, the map tooltips and the Journey window read in your own language.

As a pilot, the pack also translates quest objective descriptions. In the Horde zones of Kalimdor (Durotar, Mulgore, the Barrens, Stonetalon, Ashenvale, Thousand Needles, Orgrimmar and Thunder Bluff, up to level 30) the objectives of 278 quests appear in Turkish. Click the quest marker on the map and you see, for example: "Bring 10 Incendrite to Tsunaman at Sun Rock Retreat" in Turkish. Quest, NPC and item names stay in English.

The pack never touches Questie's own files. It plugs into the channel Questie provides for external translations, so a Questie update does not break it. Strings added by a newer Questie show in English until we translate them.

Key features

  • All 1,146 of Questie's interface strings in Turkish: settings, tracker, map tooltips and the Journey window.
  • Objective descriptions for 278 quests in the Horde zones of Kalimdor, up to level 30. This is a pilot: other zones, Alliance, levels above 30 and dungeon quests are coming.
  • Quest, NPC, zone and item names stay in English, so they match the game's own quest log.
  • Progress lines in the tracker such as "0/10 ..." stay in English because the game itself writes them.
  • A font fix for the Turkish letters ğ, ş and İ: the game's main font cannot draw them, so the pack shows Questie's tracker and map tooltip in Arial Narrow and makes the tracker larger and sharper. It leaves the settings you picked alone, and other tooltips are unchanged.
  • Map marker safeguard: Questie's icon theme turns the game's own quest markers (! and ?) off. If you turn Questie off and leave the pack on, the pack switches those markers back on at your next login.
  • Easy way back: choose English in Questie's language list, or switch the pack off in the addon list.

Requirements

  • Questie and QuestieDB must be installed. The pack does nothing on its own; both pages are below.

Installation

  1. Download the zip and extract it.
  2. Move the DevsoyGorevTR folder inside it into World of Warcraft\_forever_\Interface\AddOns\.
  3. Close the game completely and reopen it (/reload alone does not load new files).
  4. On the character select screen, check that the addon is ticked in the AddOns list.

Commands

/questie
Opens Questie's settings. The language list is under Advanced.

Notes

  • Pilot release: the translation and the font have not had wide testing in game. If you hit a problem, report it on the forum.
  • Other zones, Alliance, levels above 30 and dungeon quests will come in later releases.

FAQ

I turned Questie off and the map shows no quest markers (! ?).

Questie's icon theme turns the game's own quest markers off. With the Turkish pack enabled they come back on at your next login; if you disabled both, type /console questPOI 1 in chat, then /reload.

Why are quest names not in Turkish?

Quest, NPC, zone and item names are left in English so they match the game's quest log. Players also give each other directions with these names.

How do I switch back to English?

Open the settings with /questie and pick English in the language list. You can also disable the pack in the AddOns list on the character screen.

What happens when a new Questie version comes out?

The pack keeps working. Strings added in the new version appear in English until we translate them.

Why does the tracker text look different?

The game's main font does not draw ğ, ş and İ. On first login the pack sets the tracker font to Arial Narrow and makes it one size larger. After that you can change it under Tracker in /questie; the pack will not interfere again.
