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.

Re: cant open it after it was scrolled shut

Originally posted by jethbrown
I scrolled it shut last night and when I click the cogwheel to open it up when it is attached to the quest window, the piece that your supposed to click just disappears. How can I fix this. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the addon, but that did not help. I de-attached and reattached in the options, made no difference. I have Windows 7, is there a hidden file I can delete to replace it's saved variables, as it is not listed there either?

Thanks

p.s. Been using it for years, great addon!
You need to have the main quest window open. Cannot be an addon's quest window such as Carbonite's.

Hope this helps

Yes, a bug report would help. You can click on the "Add Favorite" button on the main addon page and then you can set up wowinterface to email you when a new version is released.

MMOUI Minion can be used for automatic updating.

Oh! Such as? :-)

P.S.
Ah! And btw, seems that your try to get along with "quests with pictures at side" didn't work too good, gets buggy, at least for me. So, I unmarked it and keep Lightheaded detached. Can do SS if needed.

Not at this time, no. You can always find it here, on WowInterface. There are a few different ways to be notified when there is a new version, and automatically update the addon as well.

I cannot reproduce this issue, so it may be something with the starting zone and the phasing that occurs there. I open the quest log, in the LH window type 12719 and then click on the quest that it finds. I then go to the second comment and click on the coordinates, and TomTom places a waypoint.
