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: Re: Errors upon Ulduar update

I'll need to release an update for WoTLK but it'll take some time for that. Give me a few days and I'll see what I can do. A great user has already sent over some fixes I just need to go through them and make sure they won't break things elsewhere.

I will try to find the problem but my skills are quite limited.
Any help will be appreciated.
Wotlk is running on the dragonflight api now from what I understand so maybe the DF version of this addon could be ported to wotlk?

The addon itself just needs updated to work with latest API changes so as to not error etc.. vs my hacks to Cladhaire's code. If you'd like the later while Cladhaire is working on it, feel free to ping me Rad
If you have a preliminary working version YES please , i do like to use it on retail.

Merry Xmas

Need Version for 4.3.4 Cataclysm

Hello! First Off i just wanted to thank you. I use your addon for every single quest every day of my life. i owe you a cup of coffee every day. I use it on Vanilla 1.12.1 and TBC 2.4.3.

I'm honestly surprised it still works with WoWhead, these old versions of your addon. Thank GOD.

I've recently started playing Cataclysm 4.3.4, and i can't find the version of Lightheaded that works with it and i desperately need help with these crazy doom-themed quests. It's the end of the world and i need you to hold my hand yet-again.

Please either update your uploaded file list with WoW Client-Compatible version lists (1.12.1, 2.4.3, 3.3.5, and so forth,) if at all possible. and add the one for Cata. Thanks a bunch! Much Love to you from New Orleans!
