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.

chat log spam

Yesterday I suddenly started getting spammed by text in the General Chat log like below. Sometimes it is ten or twenty lines, sometimes it goes on for 50 or more lines:

Code:
Mapster: Subzone: GiantsRun in zone: HowlingFjord
Mapster: Subzone: GiantsRun in zone: HowlingFjord
Mapster: Subzone: GiantsRun in zone: HowlingFjord
Mapster: Subzone: FortWildervar in zone: HowlingFjord
Mapster: Subzone: Halgrind in zone: HowlingFjord
Mapster: Subzone: Halgrind in zone: HowlingFjord
Mapster: Subzone: BaelgunsExcavationSite in zone: HowlingFjord
Mapster: Subzone: BaelgunsExcavationSite in zone: HowlingFjord
I've never seen this before. I tried disabling some recent AddOn updates I have installed, but I couldn't get it to stop doing this.

Edit: I disabled ALL AddOns except Mapster, and it still does it.

It scrolls some of the text like above once in a while even with no other AddOns, but with a recent update to MobMap, now it continuously scrolls the text forever without stop when MobMap is enabled.

PLEASE fix this! I really want to use Mapster... it's the only map mod I will use, but not like this.

After much time troubleshooting by eliminating other AddOns, I finally tried deleting the Mapster folder in AddOns and the Mapster.lua files in SavedVariables, then reinstalling Mapster. That fixed it.
Ahh... much better!

I think QuestHelper corrupted something in Mapster. I won't go into the whole story, but I posted some details in QuestHelper's comments.

Maybe I'm not seeing it, but in the new small zone map (which I do like) there "X" is no longer there to close it. So how exactly do you close it now without opening up the big map?

i could not stand cartographer 3, however i find mapster to be a great replacement for a minimalistic cartographer 2. the only thing i miss is the zone information, more specifically the zone levels that would appear as you moused over the zone, and i would love to see mapster with that addition. it would help greatly in prioritizing quests/grinding/farming according to the level of your character. that way you could judge which zone would be best to go to without having to search the internet or ask in game.

Re: Error Msg

I'm getting this exact same error every time I log into a character.

Clicking on the map

I seem to have a problem where I can't click on the map to change my view. For example, I click on the drop down menus to change the continent, but nothing happens. If I'm in Grizzly Hills and I click on Zul'Drak, nothing happens. Anyone else have something like this going on?

EDIT: There seems to be a conflict with some other mod. I'm tracking it down. If anyone else has had this happen, let me know and I can get it figured out quicker.

I agree about the Zone info. Showed recommended levels, fishing requirements, dungeons and their levels, etc, etc.

Is there a addon that might do this now??
