In reply to vlackrs:
Hi vlackrs,
apparently I forgot to format realms correcly, which have spaces in their names. ^^'
I'll upload a corrected version soon. Thanks for reporting the bug and sorry for the inconvenience. :)

this addon seems incompatible with raider.io
In reply to Taiya:
Hi, i have seen that players from Kael'thas realm have no flags
In reply to Dathwada:
May you please name what your own language settings are (german, english, french, ...) and which region (eu or us+oceania+latam) you're playing in? I guess it's linked to french realms, but I want to be sure about that.

Feedback here: Brazilians and Latam servers are not the same, I saw Latam servers with the brazililian flag. I know that from your perspective is all the same thing but believe or not latam players usually try to avoid brazilian players b4 they the are really really bad (even worse than latam).
Maybe you can add this as a flag for Latam servers:
Nice addon btw.
In reply to IceJones1234:
The american realmlist was not done by me, but by Turtle919 so I was not aware that the realms are nuanced. Which reals would you categorize as Latam? I can only see mexican realms next to american and brazilian realms.
Regarding the proposed flag: Isn't that the flag of CONMEBOL? I'm not comfortable with using trademarked stuff. I'm gonna use the mexican flag for as Blizz itself marks these realms as mexican.

In reply to Spielstein:
Can you change the Great britain flag to the EU flag instead? There are ppl from all other european countries on those realms. They are not exclusive to great britain
In reply to p1ks_:
Heyho. Thanks for this great addon, very handy.
One suggestion: would it be possible to add an option like "only show flag when country is different from mine" or something like that?
Thanks in advance, keep the good work going. :)
Hey,
that should be possible. I'll have a look into that.

Edit: I have a solution ready. I'll upload a new version withing the next days.
Why EU only? :c
The wow API doesn't have a consistent and robust way (at least based on my current state of knowledge) to tell you in which region the server is located (EU, US, oceanic, etc.) and Blizz likes to reuse realmnames for each region (e.g. Blackmoore-EU and Blackmoore-US).
That makes identifying the correct language flag a little bit more challenging.
Is the need so high in other regions? I never knew other regions have this kind of language diversity problem.

Thanks to the work of Turtle919@Curse I'm able to work on a solution for us/oceanic realms. I'm tinkering on it at the moment and can hopefully deliver within the next days.

Lua Error with the 7.3 Update :/
I have no wow subscription right now.
Can you be a little more precise with your error? ^^
Greetings, Spielstein
Sure :)
