Addon to read Chinese, Russian, English, Japanese, Korean, German, French, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese and a bunch of other languages. Say bye to empty text windows.
Based on UnicodeFont 1.4.1, updated to use Nowar War-Sans-TT font and addon changed to affect chat only.
Changelog:
1.4.2:
- Changed from WenQuanYi Zen Hei to Nowar War-Sans-TT.
Both Chinese and English text didn't look good enough with WenQuanYi Zen Hei.
1.4.1b:
- Updated WenQuanYi Zen Hei to version 0.9.45
Keep in mind this addon will only make you able to read the supported languages. If you are interesting in writting in chinese, russian etc, download Locale Emulator and run Wow.exe with it. https://github.com/xupefei/Locale-Emulator

- Press the green code button and click download zip
- Rename UnicodeFont-master to UnicodeFont and drag it into your addon folder
- Start up WoW and view some non latin characters, it should now display correctly in chat.
