LightHeaded

Version: v100002-1.0.0-2022-12-15

by: Cladhaire [More]

Classic not updated at the moment, only retail.

LightHeaded is a very simple addon that displays quest information and comments from http://www.wowhead.com in game, eliminating the need to Alt-Tab when you get stuck on quest. This addon was inspired by qcomments and wowhead_quests, which both serve a similar purpose. Data is only loaded when you first request it, so you can be sure you're not using more memory than you need to.

I HIGHLY suggest using this addon with TomTom, another one of my addons (http://www.wowinterface.com/download...32-TomTom.html ). This allows you to simply click any coordinate in LightHeaded to add it to your map as a waypoint.

The following slash commands are valid:

/lh attach - Attaches the frame to the quest log
/lh detach - Detaches the frame, allows you to resize and move it
/lh sound - Toggles the open/close sound
/lh page - Toggles showing all comments on one page, or with multiple pages
/lh bgalpha <0.0-1.0> - Changes the alpha of the LH window background textures, so you can see the world.
/lh debug - Enables or disabled debug messages when loading quest databases
/lh config - Opens the LightHeaded configuration window
/lh autodetails - Toggle automatic opening of the Lightheaded window when clicking a quest in the objective tracker

LightHeaded now includes the English descriptions and introductory text for most of the quests in the game. This is disabled by default, but can be enabled for those players that are not playing in their native locale.

LightHeaded supports sending coordinates to TomTom, MapNotes, Cartographer2 and Cartographer3.

IMPORTANT: Addon authors that wish to use this API and data should
include the wowhead logo in the frame that displays this information.
They are kind enough to let me continue parsing their database, and we
owe them at least that much. Thank you.

Thanks for using my addons!

Updated 2022-12-15 for retail.

While your addon gave me the coords it didnt tell me where. so I was looking in Alterac Valley for a quest giver who was in Ironforge!

Is there anyway that when you click on a questgiver and it tells coords - it can tell the map those coords are for?

Thanks and once again you hav e done a great addon!

Clicking on the coordinates with TomTom installed does properly map them to the correct location. NPC locations are precise with zone, x and y.

Kimengerol A Kobold Labourer Forum posts: 0 File comments: 2 Uploads: 0	Ok, It's working fine now. I disabled all my other add-ons, but it still caused errors. So, I deleted all of the Lightheaded files from my add-ons directory, re-downloaded it and re-copied it to my add-ons, and it works great. I'll bet I just had a corrupted zip file from before. Thanks for the help - sorry to be a "Chicken Little"

Not sure what to tell you, no one else has reported this and that line really should never have an error. Disable other addons and see if something is conflicting.

You've disabled the LightHeaded_Data_QIDNames addon, which means LightHeaded is unable to get the information it needs. All of the data addons should be enabled at all time, they are only loaded on-demand.

It appears intermittently, and is resolved with a /reloadui. That is: When I bring up the QuestLog (L), the quest text is completely missing sometimes, forcing me to use the resolution denoted above. Have you had any experience with this, or any other reports of this issue? Let me know how I might be of any assistance. Cheers, ~Merri

Some folks have asked for how they can donate money, and for many years I've enjoyed hearing about how my addons have helped other people enjoy World of Warcraft. If you would like to donate, I'd ask you to make a donation to the Colorectal Cancer Alliance, a worthy organisation that helped my sister immensely from her diagnosis through her final years. If you or a family member suspect you might have something not right in your butt, please have a doctor check it out. Colorectal cancer is one of the most preventable cancers in the world.
