LightHeaded  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

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.

I'm not sure what you're asking. This addon provides comments for quests, within World of Warcraft.

There are roughly 17,000 "Extended Quest Log" mods hosted across the internet. The only "EQL" variant I know that works with this is BEQL.

just a FYI:

you can also do Ctrl+PrintScrn whenever (not just WoW) and it will take a SS of your screen onto the clipboard (the thing that holds the copy/paste files).

so, u could do Ctrl+Print Scrn and then open Paint, Ctrl+V(paste) and then save it somewhere as a .jpg

it is a couple more steps than just doing PrintScrn in WoW, but you have to convert it to a right file extension to upload it to a site.

there's always small file converters for free on the internet

just a little info.

but in this case, you just need to take an SS and e-mail it to Cladhaire; he can see it in wow's picture extension

Take a screenshot, and send it to me in a private message or an email. I promise you.. there have BEEN no changes. LightHeaded looks the same as it does in the screenshots posted on this site.

Also, the /lh command does not work for me. odd.
You're gonna need to post some screenshots, or something.. because if you don't have the /lh command, then things are seriously wrong, and I can't do much to help without more informatino.

Thanks.
