Waypoint 0.10.1 - Simplified Chinese

Waypoint now speaks Simplified Chinese. A new Waypoint also starts in your system's language when it has it.

Download Waypoint.exe below and run it. If you're on 0.8.0 or later, Waypoint offers this version itself.

New

• Simplified Chinese (简体中文), in Settings → Language, beside English and Русский. Path of Exile's own words use the game's official Chinese text, for example 词缀 (modifier), 已污染 (corrupted) and 塑界者 (Shaper).
• Your system's language on the first start. On a Chinese or Russian Windows, a new Waypoint opens in that language. If Waypoint already has your choice saved, nothing changes, and you can switch any time in Settings.
• Windows' own text in Waypoint follows the language you pick, such as a text box's right-click menu.

Changed

• Russian now uses the game's own words. 49 Russian texts now match the official Russian client:

  • «свойство» for a modifier;
  • «секция тайника» for a stash tab;
  • «Синхронизация» / «Рассинхронизация» for Lockstep / Predictive;
  • «Эл. почта» for the login field;
  • the game's menu path in Russian, with the English after it.

  The item crafter's "Split" read «Расколотый», which is the game's word for Fractured. It now reads «Разделённый».

• "Networking Mode". The setup instructions said "Network Mode", but the game calls the option Networking Mode.

About the translations

The Chinese text and the Russian changes were made by an English speaker, and no native speaker has reviewed them yet. If you're a native speaker of any language Waypoint has and something reads wrong, please open a pull request or an issue. docs/localization.md shows how to change a translation.

Not tested yet

• Chinese on a real Linux machine. It needs a CJK font installed, such as Noto Sans CJK.
