Mapster  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 1.11.0
by: Nevcairiel [More]

Mapster is a very simple world map enhacement addon, which was designed to work in conjunction with all other map addons out there. The idea to create Mapster originated from pure lack of a simplistic addon that only modifies the world map, without adding a full scale feature set.

Features

  • Map Style (Scale & Alpha)
  • Coordinates
  • Fog of War removal
  • Enhancement of the raid/party group icons

You can access the Mapster configuration menu through the new button on the world map, as shown in the screenshot.
All features (except the style) can be turned off individually if you do not need/want them.

If you're looking for a replacement to Cartographer, i also recommend the following addons:

Mapster
1.11.0 (2023-11-28)
Full Changelog Previous Releases
  • Add 10.2 FogClear data
  • Disable multi-version packages
  • Remove Classic support
    Maintaining Classic support has become a huge burden for this mod, since
    it is designed to modify the Blizzard UI, and the UI diverges even
    further between Retail and the different Classic variants with every
    update.
    Hence, I rather focus my efforts on Retail, and other mods.

Technically this is a Blizzard issue, however i added a fix into Mapster for the next version which should try to fix their problem.

Beginning to think this may be an issue at Blizz's end. I get this too (don't have mapster but use tukUI) and believe it's the persisting dots actually causing the LUA errors to occur. Strangely (for me) it seems specific to certain battle grounds; WSG and AB.

If anyone wants the old group icons that last worked in version 1.3.11 you can download it here: http://www.mediafire.com/?zwp67c9hvjua4vp

I'm no lua expert I just took some of the old code and pasted it in the new 1.5.0 version. I'm sure it could be cleaned up a bit.

I have a problem with the new Blackrock Mountain and Cavern's of Time maps that was added in 5.0.4.
When I open my map after 1-2 seconds it zooms out to the area map.
Also sometimes party member dots get stuck across almost every area of the world map.

I really like your add on but I have one problem. When I press the little question mark button next to my quest in the quest tracker it doesn't open my battle map or world map. Can you help me?

Is there someone to submit bug reports?

Bugsack is saying there's a problem indexing the global "ScenarioPOIFrame" at line 439 in Mapster-1.4.3-22-g97f5f3f.lua.

Well... the filename is just mapster.lua, but it seems bugsack appends the version info.

All said and told
Code:
Mapster\Mapster-1.4.3-22-g97f5f3f.lua:469: attempt to index global "ScenarioPOIFrame" (a nil value)

Any plans to update for 4.2? I know I can change the TOC file, but I was just curious if the addon author had modifications to make and was going to update soon.
