Spoken

3.9.0 — 2026-11-14

• A report names the line you heard. When a quest is read in more than one voice, or an NPC has several lines, the Report link now carries the recording that played, so the report lands on that line rather than asking you to pick one. (rusty-key)
• Read Quest Progress Text. A new Quests setting, on by default, under Read Automatically. Turned off, the "not done yet" page an NPC shows before you hand in a quest no longer reads itself; its Play button still plays it. (rusty-key)
• Places no longer shows the combat hold message when Stop When Combat Starts is off. Autoplayed place audio continues normally during combat in that mode. (anon1231823)
• A report says which pack you heard. A Places report now carries the version of the Places sound pack you were listening to, and a Quests report names the pack the line played from (Alliance, Horde, Shared or Gossip) with its own version. The report page uses it to tell you when that pack has a newer recording of the line, and where to get it. (rusty-key)
• Subtitles and Compendium text now follow your sound packs. A pack carries the words of the lines it voices, so new audio no longer plays under old text. This applies when the pack is in the language you read; a German player with English voices keeps German text. In English, quest text now says "Adventurer" where the voice does, rather than your character's name. (rusty-key)
• A voice pack brings its own language. A pack names its language in its .toc, and Spoken lists it in the Voice and Fallback menus as soon as the pack is installed, whatever the language is: Italian, Polish, Vietnamese, Hebrew. A pack can also give the language's name and a font, which Spoken uses for the name and the lore pages. Places offers a pack's lore language when the pack says it carries lore. (rusty-key)
• A voice pack in a language Spoken did not list before is chosen under Voice Language. If you play a pack in such a language, such as Hebrew, pick it there. "Auto" follows your client and no longer takes that pack for English. (rusty-key)
