QuestGuru

Version: 2.8.3

by: Lazare [More]

QuestGuru is a Quest Log Enhancer.
If you are looking for the "Classic" version of QuestGuru click QuestGuru_Classic

I have split off QuestGuru and QuestGuru Sounds into two separate addons that don't rely on each other so that the community that really missed the sounds can have them with me delaying them because of the qork being done on QuestGuru. I hope this makes at least some people happy.
You can click > QuestGuru Sounds

Note: If you like this addon, please "Like it" on Curse.com.
All Donations support me and I thank you in advance for it.

Features include:

Enhanced 2 page quest display in the log
Patch 6.0 broke QuestGuru, so this is a completely different monster
Conforms to the WOD map quest log (Tooltips for quests and icons showing quest status)
Added full time quest level in front of quest name and tooltips.

For those who are missing the Quest Tracker of QuestGuru, try Kaliel's Tracker

I have been using it for a long while and is not half bad

TO-DO's:

Will try and revamp the quest tracker as I love it also. But wanted to get the Log out ASAP.
Try to bring back the other features of the old QuestGuru (Sounds, announcements, etc.)
Need to make a in-game config window, still a work in progress.

F A Q
==============
Q. How do I post a Bug Report?

A1 - Click on QuestGuru Go to the AddOn and on the right side there is a selection called "Bugs" click on that. You will need to be signed in to WoW Interface to create a bug report.
A2 - Or file a ticket on QuestGuru@CurseForge
Note:
Please include the version of QuestGuru you are using and copy/paste the error message you receive.
Please describe what you were doing when the error happened. This will help tremendously.

Q. How do I turn on auto-tracking of quests?

A - Look in the options for the game itself, not QuestGuru. Under Objectives there are options to set when to track quests.
QuestGuru does not duplicate these settings in its own options as it could become problematic and it is not necessary to duplicate options already available.

Q. Where can I find a version compatible with WoW patch x?

A. QuestGuru is supported for the current Expansion and Patch level running on the live servers. PTR versions may be supported as Alpha or Beta releases, but I offer no guarantee.

Version 2.2.18-50400
-------------
QuestGuru
(no changes)

QuestGuru_Tracker
* Normalizing the version numbers between QuestGuru & QuestGuru_Tracker to the same value. This will be the main change log henceforth.
* fix Achievement to ignore update events that happen during portals (between leaving and entering world events)
The update event would fire, but Blizzard was reporting no achievements during that time so the QGT would
"UnTrack" the Achievements and so there would be none when the display tried to update (and therefore currLine was zero and j was nil)
* Look at the oldChangeLog in QuestGuru_Tracker for older updates to the tracker

Version 2.2.17-50400 (QuestGuru)
-------------
* Changing the Version number so Curse will see that it's different

Version 1.5.16-50400 (QuestGuru_Tracker)
-------------
* fix QGT_Achievement.lua to handle Blizzard not returning an integer value on the slider
Version 2.2.16-50400 (QuestGuru)
-------------
* Removed a bit of diagnostic code accidently left in.
Version 2.2.15-50400 (QuestGuru)
-------------
* Change logic around QuestLog_OnShow to use secure hook functions to resolve
a taint issue introduced by patch 5.4.1 (Shame on you Blizzard).

Version 2.2.14-50400 (QuestGuru)
Version 1.5.15-50400 (QuestGuru_Tracker)
-------------
* TOC change for patch 5.4

Version 2.2.14-50300 (QuestGuru)
Version 1.5.15-50300 (QuestGuru_Tracker)
-------------
* TOC change for patch 5.3
* Fixed a problem in QGT_Achievements that caused the Tracker to fail (Tracker)
* Big thanks to CMTitan who provided code to handle Scenarios that came out with MoP (Tracker)

Version 2.2.13-50001 (QuestGuru)
-------------
* Added a new sound option to announce (Thank you Drizt)
* Added a snippet of code to fix a rare QuestLog layout problem. Drizt ran into this again in MoP & kindly shared his fix for the issue.
* Fixed a few more places where party handling was changed in MoP/Patch 5.0.4.
* Changed the Debug message for the objectives not returning data to be sensitive to the debug setting.

Version 1.5.14-50001 (QuestGuru_Tracker)
-------------
* Fixed another place where party handling was changed in MoP/Patch 5.0.4.

Version 2.2.12-50001 (QuestGuru)
-------------
* Blizzard API GetQuestLogLeaderBoard is failing to return information for the identified objective & quest on some quests.
I changed the code to look for no information return and simply bypass processing for that objective after dumping some info into the chatlog.
I've added a slashcommand to invoke the routine at will: "/qg testui1"
For me, it's failing on "Shadow Wardens" and perhaps that's because the world tree marks are currency, not "items".
If the quest is an event quest (get 150 marks) then the type of quest should be event and the numObjectives should be zero.

Version 2.2.11-50001 (QuestGuru)
-------------
* Error being reported by some @ line 410 of QuestGuru.lua. Added some diagnostic code when text == nil

Version 2.2.10-50001 (QuestGuru)
-------------
* Removed some leftover diagnostic messages

Version 1.5.13-50001 (QuestGuru_Tracker)
-------------
* Fixed a problem with the Achievement Tracking

Version 2.2.9-50001 (QuestGuru)
Version 1.5.12-50001 (QuestGuru_Tracker)
-------------
* Both - Updated several items for compatability with Mists of Panderia (Patch 5.0.x)

Version 2.2.7-40300 (QuestGuru)
Version 1.5.10-40300 (QuestGuru_Tracker)
-------------
* Latest revision of the Russian localization now incorporated. Thank you again StingerSoft!
* Removed some unused code. Frame "QG_QuestLogTitleMenu"
* Fixed the SetBindings problem that would cause all bindings to occassionally get lost.

Version 2.2.6-40300 (QuestGuru)
Version 1.5.9-40300 (QuestGuru_Tracker)
-------------
* Made several localization changes. Enabled $substitution variables in announcer to be localized as well.
* Incorporated a brand new localization for Chinese(zhCN). Credit to Honooon with many thanks.
* Incorporated an updated localization for Russian(ruRU). Credit to StingerSoft with many thanks also.
* Updated all of the localizations (even the new ones) to synchronize variable names
* I based the updates upon the default (American) localization file.
* I removed variables that were no longer in the base localization file (most moved to the QuestGuru_Tracer localization)
* and added missing variables (in American)
* We now have localizations for German, French, Russian, and Chinese (zhCN & zhTW).
* I would really appreciate it if speakers of those languages sent me updates to them.
* There are some new variables in the localizations that need translation!

Version 2.2.5-40300
-------------
* The History button call to QuestCompletist has been fixed.

Version 2.2.4a-40300
-------------
* Refixed an issue in QuestGuru_Tracker\QGT_Quests.lua where SaveBindings sometimes received an invalid value because GetCurrentBindingSet() would return other than nil, 1, or 2.

Version 2.2.4-40300
-------------
* Fixed the TOC for 4.3 cata
* MrObrien has asked that somebody pickup and work on the QuestGuru so I will try and do some updates as I can't play without this mod.
Addon home is www.wowinterface.com and you can PM me there if you like. Gregity is the name.
I will be making small changes to get used to the codebase before I try anything like a major update.
* Fixed an issue in QuestGuru_Tracker/QGT_Quests.lua where SaveBindings sometimes received an invalid value because GetCurrentBindingSet() would return nil
* No other new information has been added (yet).

Version 2.2.3
-------------
* Fixes for when scrolling the quest log
* The quest log frame will now remember where it was when moved

Version 2.2.2
-------------
* Tracker achievement bug fixes and flashing for completed remote quests

Version 2.2.1
-------------
* Tracker bug fix that was causing game crashes

Version 2.2
-----------

Jzar A Chromatic Dragonspawn Forum posts: 158 File comments: 281 Uploads: 5	What would you think about making QuestGuru save settings for the main mod and the tracker universally, instead of per character? I just want everything to look the same for all my toons. For most of my addons, they either share settings between all my toons, or have support some sort of profile system, allowing me to select Default and share all my changes in settings between my chars.

Well let me copy and paste a line from the post DIRECTLY below the one where you asked if you lose your history data:

And yes, as I stated before (but some people can't scroll down) this version DOES utilize the new game feature of pulling the quest history from the server.

If ya read the patch notes, Blizzard made a UI function where mod authors can request the server to send the client a list of all the completed quest IDs.

So really, now, it doesn't matter about which addon you use, as they can pull from the server directly.

The addon has been simplified quite a bit because Blizzard has incorporated many new features into the game. And yes, as I stated before (but some people can't scroll down) this version DOES utilize the new game feature of pulling the quest history from the server. PLEASE DELETE ALL PREVIOUS Interface/AddOns/QuestGuru FOLDERS! This is a major update and the folder structure has changed.

Everyquest uses that lib still far as I know though, i think what that author was telling you is his addon depends on that lib, but that lib is not his addon so he can't fix it. :\

Yea, I know that now. When I originally posted to the author I was told it wasn't his mod and since the error only ever occurred when both EQ and QG were running together it was suggested that it might be QG's fault. However, another user of EQ tracked sown the exact issue and posted a fix the other day so everything is working for the time being.

When I tested without loading QG the error did not occur which leads me to assume it might be an issue with QG. Any way you can look into it and see because QG rocks and the only way to temp fix the error is to reload and in which case when ever I change maps again the error pops disabling EveryQuest's ability to track completed quests.

This error happens because the header (category) of some of the new seasonal quests is the same as the questname itself.
So QuestGuru gets confused and tries to get the header link instead of the actual quest link.

The fix is rather easy if you're not afraid of a small source edit:
Open QuestGuruAnnounce.lua in a text editor, scroll to the bottom
and replace lines 465-466 with

Code:

local qTitle, _, _, _, isHeader = GetQuestLogTitle(i);
if not isHeader and (qTitle == questTitle) then

Just got a few points to add here. I just installed the quest tracker alone to test it, and it looks just the way i want. However, i noticed it collects alot of garbage memory (from ~130kb to ~400kb just after accepting a few quests). If you could look into this, i'll be very happy. I know memory isn't very important, but increasing memory is something i don't like having in my addons.

I have no other quest related addons except Lightheaded, Questguru and Questhelper. I disabled everything to check for a possible conflict and can find none. The quests still will not show up or update. Thank you. Maleren Lightbringer server
