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.

Thanks
Great, thanks for the update!

So...thanks Cladhaire, I will report once this issue is fixed from the author of BEQL

You know, I started trying to think of an analogy to describe how ridiculous you're being, but reading over your posts again, I doubt you would understand.

Yes, and there's nothing _I_ can do to fix it.

Alright, stop being an ass and read what I read.
I didn't say I wouldn't help another author work to make my mod work with theirs.

I said I will not change my code for every single variation on every single addon that exists. That's why I have an API.

My mod is designed to work with the default quest log. If you need to use something other than that.. then I make absolutely and 100% guaranteed. My mod has an API that can be called to integrate with another quest log.

There's nothing more for me to do..

What are you trying to accomplish that you need BEQL or EQL for?

Also, no its not my obligation to change my code to make it work with another mod. I am more than willing to work with those authors so they can call into my API and work correctly, but I'm not making changes to my code to make it work with each and every single possible quest log enhancement that don't use the QuestLogFrame.
