FuBar - QuestsFu

Version: 4.0.1B

by: Kemayo [More]

WARNING: I don't actively use this myself any more. I wrote BetterQuest which I now use instead. If you're not incredibly wedded to FuBar, I'd recommend switching. I'll keep on fixing this up while people use it, but I'll be relying on bug reports to discover things that break.

This is a quest-tracker replacement plugin for FuBar. It provides a tooltip which replicates /most/ of the information from the quest log. It can display (or not): quest level, difficulty, objectives, zones, and suchlike. It will put quest information into the tooltips for quest monsters and items. It will make quest levels appear when talking to NPCs.

If other people in your party are using QuestsFu it'll show you how many of each quest objective they've gathered.

If you want it to, and don't think it will annoy people, you can send a message to party chat when you advance a quest objective.

Shift-click on quests in the tooltip to copy the title to the chatbox if it's open.
Control+Shift-click on quests in the tooltip to copy their objectives and status to the chatbox if it's open.
Control-click on quests in the tooltip to share them with your party.
Alt-click on quests in the tooltip to add them to Blizzard's quest-tracker.

QuestsFu includes a replacement for the Blizzard built-in quest tracker, which can track more than 10 quests at a time. Right-click on it to adjust its scale and coloration. (Or alt-right-click if you've locked the tracker.)

Achievements show up in QuestsFu's tracker. Ain't that cool?

Certain thanks must be given to MonkeyQuest, which motivated me to write this by being everything that I wanted in a quest-tracker replacement while annoying me by putting a frame over a quarter of my screen.

Wowace project: http://www.wowace.com/projects/fu-bar_quests-fu/ (This will tend to have slightly more up-to-date versions.)

Changes:

4.0.1B:

Bump TOC for 4.2

4.0.1A:

Update libraries, to fix some errors people are getting in BC content
Bump some submodule tocs
Remove pointless AceComm embed that I missed about 18 months ago

4.0.1:

Make work with the 4.0.1 patch.

3.3.1:

Fixes for chat frame usage and gossip quests.

3.3:

Bump TOC
Fixes for WoW 3.3.0

3.2.2:

Quest log levels, while scrolling, even... (HybridScrollFrame needs to be documented somewhere...)

3.2.1:

Quest log levels, work again.

3.2:

Bump TOC
Fixes for WoW3.2 from D_Town
Fix quest sharing

3.1-beta4:

Tracked achievements show up in the tracker. I intend to improve on this, but it's functional as-is.
Don't auto-watch completed quests based on zone/subzone if remove-completed is on.
Don't unwatch quests that were watched because of watch-when-gained when the zone/subzone changes.
Fix unwatch-when-completed.
Embed the correct version of Babble-Zone.
Apply a patch for LightHeaded support from schultzr.

3.1-beta3: Wrong method call in PartyNotify, Tracker still showing up, and two missing embeds.

3.1-beta2: A few tracker bugs, mostly.

3.1-beta: Make work with 3.1. Probably. I switched to a new version of the library that interacts with the quest log, and it's possible I missed something along the way.

2.0.65647: 2.4. Minor changes to level display.

2.0.55071:

Finally got bored of waiting for someone else to fix Tablet, and fixed it myself. Alt-clicking will allow you to interact with the locked tracker again.
Fixed the taint problem.

2.0.54738:

TOC updated for 2.3
Quest levels broke because of the new low-level stuff; fixed (and made more efficient -- I wrote that *ages* ago)
Fixed LightHeaded error when viewing a quest LightHeaded didn't know about.

2.0.52898:

Add new module PlayerNotify to run all player quest announcements through SinkLib, letting you choose where you want to output the text -- defaults to whatever scrolling combat text you're using.
PartyNotify and Announce now have slightly more detailed options for what to announce.
Change PartyNotify to use SinkLib.
zhCN localization by yhwh. Updated zhTW (helium and NightOwl), deDE (gamefaq), koKR (sayclub and next96).
Hopefully fixed a memory leak and reduced bandwidth use in groups.

2.0.49757:

Update for 2.2
Various localization updates and bugfixes

2.0.44273:

Add PartyLog module, which will display the quest log of a party member. (Somewhat rough around the edges still; disabled by default.)
Fix memory leaks in Quixote comms code. (Mostly stuff that got missed in the big post-2.0 cleanup.)
Fix an error that would occur if an addon had altered the reaction level global strings.

2.0.43882:

Fix Comments and Detached modules requiring an interface reload to reappear if you disabled and then reenabled then.
Remove superfluous strings from some locales.
Update to deDE localization by gamefaq.

2.0.43812:

Add a new "detached" module, disabled by default, which can be used as a more customizable version of the standard fubar tooltip.
LightHeaded integration now properly displays rep gains and quest series.
Tablet settings like minWidth, maxHeight, and strata can now be changed without reloading the UI.
Fix alt-clicking on a quest in the main tablet causing an error if the tracker module was enabled, but "use own tracker" was disabled.
Fixed coloring of the class quest headers
Rewrote module system to be like AuldLangSyne's.

2.0.42647:

Add item tooltips in the detail panel.
Support newer LightHeaded releases.
Fix some memory leaks found with the new 2.1 profiling tools.

2.0.38378:

You can now add the quest giver into the default blizzard quest log.
Fix the dewdrop error some people were having.

2.0.36300:

Update for 2.1.
Let sound type be chosen on a per-event basis (e.g. Peon for progress, Peasant for complete).

2.0.34662:

This update is a massive rewrite of everything. There's now extensive use of modules, and whole swathes of functionality can be deleted entirely if you don't want them.
Allow choosing of custom colors for everything, instead of Blizzard defaults.
Add LightHeaded integration.
Add option for maxHeight and minWidth on the Detail and Tracker frames.
Add more sounds that can play on quest events.
Party notifications are much more robust.
More little tweaks and bugfixes than I feel like writing out.

2.0.29667:

Sort quests in the tracker by level.
Slightly better handling of autowatched quests between sessions.
Improve responsiveness for "show current area quests only".
Tweaks to highlighting.
Bugfix in some onload data checking.

2.0.28429:

Highlight more words in the quest objectives.
Fix escape closing the detail frame.
Fixes for bugs in automatic quest watching.
Update localizations.

2.0.27405:

Use the Peon "work complete!" sound for quest completion.
Autowatch gained quests if they match the zone/subzone settings.
Unwatch autowatched quests when leaving the zone/subzone they were watched for.
Add options to the main menu for locking and changing the strata of the tracker and detail panel.

I like the size of the fonts on my bar but would like the option to have the text in the quest mod a bit smaller... take's up the whole side of the screen as is. But I really like this and am using it instead of the bigger mod monkey quest.

As we're using bosspanel frames now we're sharing the frames with other bosspanel mods and the size is reduced even further in addition to the other benefits of the provided tooltip. I guess the only place you'll need to override tooltip now is with something similar to transparency.

I do believe my changes filled it's purpose as it showed the need for the expanded bosspanel api and we're better off afterwards.

I still believe that it would be a good idea to show completed/numQuests instead of numQuests/maxQuests as maxQuests isn't actually informative (if you havn't changed it yet).

I've implemented that in my home SVN (an option to display either/or). I just need to tweak it and work out whether there's anything else I want to implement before 0.2.1. I definitely want to fix category-order before I next release, at least.

I quite agree about the new tooltip features representing a boost in BossPanel's usefulness. Decreases the amount one needs to know to write an interesting plugin quite a bit.

Daryth A Defias Bandit Forum posts: 3 File comments: 3 Uploads: 0	Still locking up Still getting lockups even with the latest version of both this mod and BossPanel. If it helps, I've pinpointed the exact instance of lockup to as soon as it finishes scanning my quest log. It will read "Scanning..." on the panel and as soon as it switches to "18/20" or whatever, I lock up. I really hope this can be fixed as I love this addon. I would much rather use this over MonkeyQuest and such.

Your my hero!

Wanna make a "Boss Panel - Group Calendar" Button? I have almost ditched all my minimap buttons now =)

Hehehe

Any chance we can get this included so we can scale it up or down with the rest of the bars fonts?

whatevs A Deviate Faerie Dragon Forum posts: 14 File comments: 12 Uploads: 0	Hm, weird... I changed it to such that I mentioned before, and it's working for me... Anyways, if you may, please add an option to choose font size of the area, and the quest names in that area, as well as the objectives. Thanks.

How may one go about editting the font size?

--Edit--
The problem is you have self.charData.hidden[zone.zone]
I changed it to self.charDefaults.hidden because that's how you said it at top, and it works, apparently.

Actually, self.charData is the correct value. It's a "magic" value, the creation of which is handled by BossPanel itself. self.charDefaults contains the default values for self.charData, which are used if nothing has yet been set.

I'm not certain why you're getting those errors, though. I'll have to look into it.

hikaricore A Deviate Faerie Dragon Forum posts: 17 File comments: 15 Uploads: 2	working fine for me now, tho it doesn't list quest items and mobs in their tooltips, not sure if this feature is even enabled yet or just a placeholder in the menu for when you complete it. also had to hack the font a lil bit :P default is huge lol. only other thing I can think of is the part where it only stays open for about 4-5 seconds on hover, is this working as intended or just me?

Re: Quests don't update?

I completed quite a few quests last night and the mod did not display the changes. The only way I got the quest mod to update was my disabling it and reactivating it. This happens with quite a few of the boss mods actually. I have version 0.1.5a, and just noticed you updated. I'll try this one tonight and post if my problem persists.

I believe that I've fixed this in 0.1.5.3, which I just uploaded. (I'm gambling with fate here. I downloaded this at work, made the changes I think are needed, and uploaded it again, without a chance to test it. I'm confident that I won't have made it worse, though
