README does not include installation steps beyond screenshots.
This project is an addon for World of Warcraft, specifically built for a private Vanilla WoW server called OctoWOW. Its job is simple: it translates in game quest text from English into Turkish, so Turkish speaking players on that server can read quest descriptions and dialogue in their own language instead of the original English. Vanilla in this context refers to the original, classic version of the game as it existed before later expansions, which is the version private servers like OctoWOW typically recreate. The README is quite short and mostly consists of screenshots showing the translated quest text in action, rather than detailed setup instructions or a feature list. It does mention one known limitation: for quests that are part of a chain and share the same name, the translated quest screen sometimes does not appear the first time you click on the NPC that gives the quest. The workaround described is to click the quest in your quest log first, then click the NPC again, which fixes the display. The author explains this is due to a limitation in the game's addon programming interface that they were not able to work around, so this remains a known quirk rather than a fixed bug. As an addon written in Lua, the language World of Warcraft addons are built in, this tool would be installed into the WoW addons folder like any other custom addon, though the README itself does not walk through that installation process in detail. This is a narrowly scoped, community made tool for a specific private server and a specific language, rather than a general purpose translation system, and it assumes the player already knows how to install WoW addons in general.
