Turtle WoW and RavenCraft quests, maps, and interface additions for pfQuest-HDB. Its combined English SQLite database includes Vanilla and Turtle content.

This ready-to-install bundle includes the embedded provider and English SQLite database. Both addon folders are included. The optional Russian pack is distributed separately.

Choose an edition

Edition	Install	Requirements
Regular pfQuest	pfQuest	Loads its database in Lua; no HearthDB DLL required.
Regular Turtle/Raven content	pfQuest-turtle alongside regular pfQuest	Both regular addon folders.
HDB Vanilla	pfQuest-HDB-Install	HearthDB client component; English database included.
HDB Turtle/Raven content	pfQuest-turtle-HDB-Install	HearthDB client component; both addon folders and combined English database included.

Install one edition at a time. Both editions use the folder names pfQuest and pfQuest-turtle; mixing regular and HDB folders can leave the wrong database or code loaded.

Install or update

Fully close World of Warcraft. Preserve your WTF settings and back up addon folders when switching editions.
Download this install bundle and extract it.
Replace pfQuest and pfQuest-turtle in Interface/AddOns with the inner addon folders from this bundle. Remove the old folders first so obsolete files are not left behind.
Remove legacy pfQuest-HearthDB and pfQuest-HearthDB-turtle provider folders. Any small inactive compatibility stubs included in the bundle are migration files, not required providers.
Confirm the client has HearthDB support, restart, enable the addons, and run /pfqhdb to verify the database opened.

The database belongs at pfQuest-turtle/provider/data/pfquest-turtle.sqlite inside Interface/AddOns. The Turtle database includes Vanilla content; install both folders from this bundle.

DLL and diagnostics

The existing HearthDB DLL remains supported. The 0.4.1-exp.3 DLL is an optional separate download. This bundle does not install a DLL or plugin loader. Fully exit the game before replacing a DLL; /reload cannot replace it. HDB requires the client component and has no Lua database fallback.

The included pfQuest-HDB-HitchProfiler is optional. Login capture defaults to off for new installations. Enable the diagnostic addon only when needed; /hdbhitch on starts a manual capture and /hdbhitch off stops it. See SUPPORT.md for login options, manual log paths, troubleshooting, and reporting.

Project status

Maintenance focuses on occasional database corrections and reported bugs. Updates have no fixed schedule. Compatibility with Raven's Classic Era 1.14 client is unverified; work on that port is paused. These packages target the existing 1.12 client.
