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.

You can use Cromulent for that. It works pretty good in combination with Mapster.

Great replacement for Cartographer. Only one minor (well, I think it would be a minor adjustment) is the 'mapster' button on the tip right. It is exactly where Questhelper has their button. Any chance it can be moved easily?

Here's another vote for modifying scaling and opacity with modified mouse scrolls. Other than that, thanks so much for a good minimalistic map! With Mapster + Cromulent + Gatherer, I get everything I used Cart2 for, but liter!

It was moved with Mapster 1.05.


[Update: And the moved button reverted to it's original location in a later dev SVN update at wowace after v1.05 was released. So.. I don't know if it will stay moved in the next release or not.]

Notes?

... Sorry, HandyNotes as linked below...

With the new and old versions of Cartographer in doubt... I am looking for a replacement. I know that I can use GatherMate for professions, but is there a compatible mod for making notes on the map?

Thanks.

With a few extra downloads (which is totally fine) Mapster is getting to be a solid replacement for Carto. I recognize the cool factor of C3, but it's not what I want/need.

On to the request - Two of the features I really miss from Cartographer are the integration with ToFu (to mark flightpaths automatically) and putting handy icon notes for profession/class trainers.

Anything out there that's a suitable replacement?

Player 'arrow' too small!

Just to let you know I think this is a great addon. The only thing I think it is missing (unless I just can't find it) is an option to change the size of the player's arrow/icon on the map. This is only an issue, because I have my map set to 75% size. This results in a player arrow/icon that is nearly impossible to see.


Once again, thanks for the great addon.

When setting the focus on a mob i get the follow error (also when I unset the focus):

==========================================================
Mapster has been blocked from an action only available to the Blizzard UI.
You can disable this addon and reload the UI. (Disable or Ignore)

I'm curious..why is it necessary for a Map Addon to be able to see the direction my arrow is turning with the map open..why won't the default map do it :-/

I've been using Cartographer for the longest time, but decided to give Mapster a try... I really like it, but I'm missing one function from Cart...and that is the position of flight masters/flight points on the map in cities.

Is there any way we could get this data added to Mapster and/or could anyone provide an alternative just to add this info to to mapster?

Thanks,
vpr
