Parley 1.5.0 · first public release

Live chat translation for World of Warcraft Classic Era (Retail: beta). Players from Brazil, Russia, Spain, Germany, Korea and everywhere else share your realm; Parley shows what they're saying in your language and translates your replies back into theirs.

Download

  • Parley-Setup.exe: installs the Windows app and puts the addon into your WoW folder. This is all most people need.
  • Parley-addon-1.4.0.zip: the addon on its own, if you install addons by hand (it's also on CurseForge).

Requires Windows 10/11 (64-bit) and WoW in Windowed (Fullscreen) mode. Step-by-step instructions: INSTALL.txt.

Highlights

  • No account needed. Translation runs offline on your PC with the open models Firefox uses. Each language downloads once (about 50 MB). Chat never leaves your computer.
  • Optional DeepL. Paste a DeepL API key for the best quality; Parley falls back to offline if DeepL is down or out of characters.
  • Reply in their language. Click a message, type in English, press Enter: Parley translates it, adds /w Name (or /p, /4 …) and copies it for you to paste.
  • Knows gamer talk. Dungeon and city names in every client language (Мертвые копи, Ventobravo, 死亡矿井 → Deadmines, Stormwind), slang like vlw, спс, лс, хил, and "I can tank" → posso tankar.
  • Five skins: Classic WoW, Retail WoW, Dragonflight, WoW chat frame and a modern dark theme, with matching menus and settings.
  • In your language. The app, installer and addon follow your Windows / WoW language (German, Spanish, French, Italian, Portuguese, Russian, Korean, Chinese).
  • Extras: voice replies (Ctrl+Shift+Y), right-click to copy / reply / mute, click-through overlay, daily chat history.

Retail (beta)

The addon loads on Retail 12.1 but hasn't had much testing there. During Mythic+ keys, PvP matches and boss fights Blizzard hides chat from all addons, so Parley pauses and says so in the overlay. Please open an issue if anything looks wrong.

Good to know

  • Windows SmartScreen may say "Windows protected your PC" because the installer isn't code-signed yet. Click More info → Run anyway.
  • Parley never reads game memory, injects code or presses keys; it reads a small strip of pixels the addon draws. It's a fan project, not endorsed by Blizzard. Use at your own risk.
