Help

I am fairly new to using add-ons, so please forgive me if this is a silly question...

I have downloaded Grail, tomtom, and Wholly and they all are in my add-on folder on my hard drive (wow folder-interface-addons). When I boot up wow I can see the add-on for tomtom and it looks fine. I can see Wholly, but it says "dependency missing". I cannot see the add-on for Grail at all.

I would really like to use Wholly. I am missing many quests in many different regions; it would help me get a lot of quest achievements.

I would really appreciate any help/advice.

Thanks.

... for having this (and Grail) updated. It's been *very* useful, and I'm happy to be able to continue to use it!

That may well be, but no *other* addon was giving me problems, and the problem only showed up when I logged in after installing Wholly/Grail. *shrug*

I just downloaded the pre-release, and tried to reproduce the problem. Unfortunately, I've already done the dailies on the toon I was on when I experienced it, wherein before I'd just logged in and was going around collecting the daily quests. I logged in a couple of other toons and took them to Shattrath; one of them had never been there at all, so many things would have been new data for that character. I was seeing some intermittent jitters in the video, most often as the screen was about to display a new area name (as, when you're flying over a zone, and the names come up on your screen as you go over places like a lake or a town or something). I wasn't able to catch if my bandwidth was lagging; nor did anything show up on eventtrace, at all. (not sure if that's good or not, surely there were some events for the system? I don't know...) I wasn't seeing anything laggy when I went around the ring of the Terrace of Light on either of the other toons.

I'll reboot my machine before I login again, to give it a 'fresh' start, most like the time that I had that problem, and we'll see if it starts again.

Later!

As I have not been able to reproduce this issue on my own, I would imagine it has to do with interaction with some other addons you are using.

If the problem is similar to the one Carbonite was causing, a bunch of WORLD_MAP_UPDATE events were being sent, and the prerelease version of Wholly on http://ns1.mithrandir.com/WorldOfWar...erelease.shtml should fix that issue. So the first thing I would suggest is to load that version and see if the problem still happens.

If that does not fix the problem, could you get yourself in a situation where the hang is about to happen and turn on Blizzard's event tracing. You can do this with the slash command "/eventtrace" which will open a window listing the events that happen. And then put yourself into the situation where the addons hang. If you can note any excessive events perhaps I can see whether any of them are impacting Grail and/or Wholly.

They should not influence anything by themselves since Wholly loads then on demand. If you can reproduce the problem with Grail only I can try to isolate it, and likewise if you need Wholly it can be isolated to that. Which specific versions of Grail and Wholly are you using?
Live, and whatever was available here on Wow interface as of about 20-24 hours ago. I only had it on for a few minutes, and only really on the one toon, an L84 draenei hunter running around in Shattrath to collect dailies that I've done many times before. I was getting the freeze every time I passed under one of those bridges that arc over the terrace from the building the Naaru is in. There are many daily quest-givers in that area, but they're not necessarily right next to each other - there was at least once where I was going under one of those bridges that there was not a quest giver on the other side, and it still froze. (it's possible there was a quest giver that was no longer showing as I'd done the quest... like the skyguard NPC next to the flight point.)

It definitely happened when I passed under one of those bridges. I believe it happened when a quest giver came into my field of view. And it happened when I interacted with the quest giver. After it had happened a total of about 10 times, and I'd gotten disconnected/reconnected about 5, I turned off the 'new things' e.g. Wholly and Grail both, and it stopped happening at all. The freezes were ranging in time from 10 seconds to over 3 minutes.

After I'm done with what I'm doing on this toon, I'll re-enable and try other toons, other areas, and other swaps. I'm willing to help isolate, but I want to get some fun in tonight also.

I was on the Terrace of Light, and every time I passed one of the 'bridges', or got close to a (daily) quest giver, or right-clicked on a daily quest giver, it would completely freeze, till I was getting the 'you have been disconnected'/'you have been connected to battle.net' messages. I disabled Wholly and all three Grail pieces (I have an addon that lets me do that without logging the toon out) and reloaded the UI. It stopped happening.

I'm currently running WoW under Wine on Linux - if you need those details, let me know and I'll add them in.
Are you using Carbonite by any chance? This sounds like what was happening with Carbonite users. If so, you can download the prerelease of Wholly mentioned in the entry just before yours. If not, can you tell me other addons you are using?
Carbonite is one I *don't* use. I have a pile of addons: ACP, Altoholic, Analyst, Archy, Auctioneer, AutoRepair (not on here, from curse), Badboy, Compass, Critter Emotes (this makes a non-combat pet say things), Datastore, DragEmAll, Dresser, Elephant, Engravings, Faction Addict, Fishing Buddy (tho I don't use the fubar or other 'bars'), Gatherer, IgnoreMore, Holiday Helper, InFlight, KeepingTabs, Lagbar, Lightheaded, MoMoCritterEmote (this helps with the /love /kill achievements), Postal, QuestCompletist (which I'm looking to replace with this set if it works better.. ), RangeDisplay, SilverDragon, Simplegold, SpeedyGonzales, Swindler Preventer, Tabard Addict, TomTom, TrackoMatic, Wowhead Looter, Zone Achievement Tracker.
First of all, is this MoP beta or live in which you have the problem? Secondly, do you get it only when you accept a quest, or are you getting it as you are near a questgiver without interacting with it? You can try to isolate the issue by keeping Grail active, but not Wholly. The Grail-Achievements and Grail-Reputations you can keep disabled. They should not influence anything by themselves since Wholly loads then on demand. If you can reproduce the problem with Grail only I can try to isolate it, and likewise if you need Wholly it can be isolated to that. Which specific versions of Grail and Wholly are you using?

I'm currently running WoW under Wine on Linux - if you need those details, let me know and I'll add them in.
Are you using Carbonite by any chance? This sounds like what was happening with Carbonite users. If so, you can download the prerelease of Wholly mentioned in the entry just before yours. If not, can you tell me other addons you are using?

I have changed the way Wholly does its map pins to not do any work unless the WorldMapFrame is visible. This minimizes the impact that Carbonite puts on Wholly, especially since Carbonite never really shows that frame since it takes over the map. So, under some basic testing, accepting quests, etc. with Carbonite and Wholly running together no longer makes Wholly suffer from Carbonite's behavior, thus improving game performance.

I forgot to mention that this prerelease version of Wholly can be gotten from http://ns1.mithrandir.com/WorldOfWarcraft/WhollyGrailPrerelease.shtml if you are interested.

For example, I have a tailor/alchemist, yet the quest The Spectral Chalice appears for me in the log even though mining is the required profession.

Yes, the system is designed to be very smart. The two things you mention, profession requirements, and knowledge of breadcrumbs are already there. The problem you are encountering is the backend database, Grail, does not have those specific pieces of information in them, so you are not seeing the proper results in Wholly. I have updated the two quests you mentioned just in time for today's release. Therefore, if you download today's version of each addon you should see those quests both show as unobtainable for you (the first because you do not have the required profession, and the second because you have completed the followon). In the future, if you find problems like this you can file a bug report because most likely the database needs to be updated.
