MetaMap  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 20100-2
by: MetaHawk [More]

DESCRIPTION:
============
MetaMap adds features to the WoW world map, keeping all mapping type features in a single place.
Some features are:

Adjust the map window size.
Move the map anywhere on the screen.
Adjust the opacity of the window & maps.
Saved sets for toggling between 2 map modes.
Allows full player movement, messaging, etc. with map open.
Adds coords to the main map and the Minimap
Adds Instance maps which open to the correct instance you enter.
Default data included for all bosses & locations etc.
User editable notes for all maps, including instance maps.
NPC/Mob database collectable by mouseover or keypress.
Toggling on/off display of unexplored areas of the map.
Boss Loot Tables displays all the loot dropped by bosses, and more.
Waypoint system to guide you to any set point.
Complete Quest logger with optional history database.
Tracker module for gathering Herbs/Ores etc.
NoteBook module for additional notes, linked to Tooltips.
Inbuilt Import and export facilities for various data formats.
Inbuilt Backup and Restore facilities.
Button on Minimap to open or close the World Map or display MetaMap options.
Key bindings for various MetaMap functions.
Full support for Titan Bar.

INSTALLATION:
=============
Extract ALL folders in the archive to the Interface\AddOns\ location. If you wish the Instance maps to be populated with default information, then on first installation you will need to select 'Extended Options' from the MetaMap menu.
Select the 'Database' tab, then click 'Load Imports'. This will enable the default import button, 'Import Instance Notes'. Click on the 'Import' button to import the data.


ISSUES/COMPATIBILITIES:
=======================
Some addons may reset the map to gather location data.
If your map continuously jumps back to your current location when selecting another map,
it will be due to another addon resetting it. In most cases the authors have made changes
to correct this so, download the latest version of any conflicting addon.

Added frame level adjust for TitanBar button. Works correctly again now.
MetaMapTRK now saves options seperately for each character.
...(Currently looking at changing the map routines, which is likely to take some time).
...(Thought i'd get these fixes out in the meantime).

Awesome, I thought you must have included it somewhere! I'll check it out..... right after server maintenance.... Already been using /qnote to set notes on my current location, but if this command allows me to set notes for locations other than my current one that will be great!

Thanks for such a great map-mod, I've been a devoted user for a long time now.. (And no, I hadn't figured out the proper use for /qnote all this time because well...I don't read instructions... )

Sounds very much like you're running EQL3 as well. That mod is known to have some bad hooks returning bad values for any other mod making the same calls.

Not really, the normal maps you see are the Blizzard maps in the WorldMap. To place maps like that would require a complete change to the existing code. This is MetaMap, not Yatlas.

MetaMap has an option to replace the Blizzard tracker icon, to display it on the MetaMap icon instead. You most likely set that option on in General options. If you'd rather have the Blizzard icon taking up space, then by all means turn it off.

Can you fix MetaMap so that it isn't a modal window? It would be very convenient to be able to open your quest log, character pane, etc. while MetaMap is open.

If I am missing the configuration option, my pardons. I did not find one.

Impossible i'm afraid. MetaMap actually uses the Blizzard WorldMap, and changing the priorities on that would lead to many problems.

At the moment when I'm trying to add a location I have to manually mouse to the spot then add the note... I'm so lazy I know.. But sometimes this can be a tad time consuming.... Is it possible to add this functionality if it doesn't already exist?

Quite a few ways to do this. RightClick on any map note, SideList item, or WKB display item to set it as a Waypoint. Alt+LeftClick on the map to set a 'QuickLoc' Waypoint. And also selecting the Waypoint option from the main menu, which brings up the BWP menu, from where you can select from a list of current map notes.

However, this 'feature' seems to have disappeared, and the map no longer displays any herb icons. I've check the options, tried switching off then back on the option, and even tried uninstalling and reinstalling the mod (arrrgh to that, lost all my markers!), but still the herbs are not going on.

Any idea what may be causing it, and how to get it back to putting the herb icons onto the map?
That feature is still there. First, make sure you have the items you want to track ticked in the MetaMapTRK options - accessed from the options button on the Tracker data display. Also, make sure the module is actually loaded. Remember, it's a Load-on-Demand so, won't do a thing until it's actually loaded. Load by selecting the related Tracker Display option on the main MetaMap menu, or alternatively, set to module to always load on startup in the Modules section of General options.

Other than that, there is no reason it shouldn't be auto-gathering for you.

Take a point on the map, right-click, set as waypoint, iirc.

I really do love this addon and I love the time and effort that has been put into it.

But I have a question.. any reason why I can't use Gatherer with this addon? Whenever I load both with the map open my FPS drops to 1-5 and the unexplored zones flicker.

Nevermind, deleting my WTF folder cleared this issue.
