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 hope that the addon will be updated and hopefully working again i really need this addon otherwise i had to go back to minimize the game and check WoWhead all the time and that s*cks

keep up the good work
The problems lies with the way blizzard as change the way they have combind the quest log & map in one...

...i used mod LegacyQuest to getback the old style quest log and Lightheaded will be there! ...still get an error but at least its working.

Hope this helps!

Broken here too

Carbonite doesn't work with the new patch (but worked great w/LH before) so I've installed Dugi, Atlas, bartender4, and a few minor addons. (poor subs for carbonite, but better than vanilla IMO, until carbonite is updated) ... I can't figure out - Lightheaded (really good addon) won't work. Anyone have a clue for a fix. Tried the prescribed /lh config & /lh attach ... no luck

Hello ,

so after adding legacyquest ( thank god for that addon author ! lol ) , the old "nil" error did not come ,

instead i got this one because of the combination :

LightHeaded\Dongle.lua:1316: in function <LightHeaded\Dongle.lua:1308>

When you find the time to update this fine addon, please could you preserve the functionality to work with the old style quest log, in addition to the new combined one. Since using LegacyQuest, I'd prefer to use the old style, andcontinue to access the LightHeaded window as I did in 5.4 and before.

Thanks, and I appreciate all the work that you have put into the addon,.p

i second the request to preserve the original functionality for those now using legacyquest, i have a feeling this will be a popular set up for most of the lightheaded users

I use LegacyQuest, and for some reason I can't get Lightheaded to show up. /lh commands do not work either, and yes, I did check if the addon is loading.

FYI ...

Added Legacy Quest ... at first it didn't do anything to enable LH until I reloaded UI ... now it works great. Tried on wife's PC and still doesn't work ... weird ... we both have identical addons with the only difference she has Win 7 pro and I have XP pro.

Not sure if it's her PC or if she just has to wait for the new version of LH. I guess it could be that it won't work at all with Win 7? I'll keep an eye on this thread (in case someone knows of a workaround for Win 7 or we'll just wait for the new version.
