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.

One of the addons or files is not installed properly. Please reinstall the addon after removing all existing LightHeaded directories.

Heya Cladhaire, is this newest version loaded with quests from the upcoming (MOP) expansion 4 days away? I was wondering if that data is in right now, or if it wont be available until after launch. Would be awesome to be able to use Lightheaded while leveling to 90

Also, Quest-window have increased in hight, making LH look like a small appendix attached to it. Will this be fixed?

Just came across issue when using with Carbonite as i couldnt extent Light head window and solved it so sharing the solution if you came accross same issue

under Saved Variables\LightHeaded .Lua

open and add/update both to "true"

["open"] = true,
["lhopen"] = true,



Like below example

["profiles"] = {
["Character name - Realm name"] = {
["open"] = true,
["lhopen"] = true,

},

Thank you!

You are clearly insanely busy, and clearly insanely dedicated to not only WoW but your userbase.

Thank you so very much for updating these addons!
