Pick for 2/28: ChatRaidIconTranslator (new)

[Seerah]

ChatRaidIconTranslator:



There are two ways to display a raid icon in a chat message you send. You can either use rt1-8 (the index of the icon) or the name of the icon. "Polymorph {rt1}!" or "Polymorph {star}!" Using the indices requires you to know which number goes with which icon. The names of the icons are localized from client to client, however. This means that if a German player typed in "Polymorph {stern}", you would only see the star icon if you were also on a German client. Other players would only see the "{stern}" text. This addon will change {stern} to be {rt1} instead, meaning that you can see the star icon instead of the text. This also works for outgoing messages, meaning that other players in your group don't need the addon to have it translate for them. The addon currently supports English, French and German, with Korean coming in the next version. Feel free to submit your translations to the author!

Try the addon out yourself by downloading it here.
