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.

2.0.27117:

Add an automatic quest watching feature, with options to auto-watch when you enter the zone a quest is in or the subzone it's in, when you get a quest, and when you complete all a quests' objective.
Add an option to play a sound when you complete all a quests' objectives.
The quest title in the detail frame will now behave exactly like titles in the tooltip.

Re: Couple of questions

Only way I've seen to do this is to scale down the text size.

Anyone?

I have the same issue - or it will work for one but not the other, which seems to be random.

Why does the party log window always say "doesn't have Quixote" even when they have the same version of Questsfu installed and showing the party log is enabled? It worked yesterday and doesn't today, no settings were changed, so what needs to be done?

I'm trying to organize my chat windows - stuff for combat, system, party/raid, etc. I can't seem to get questsfu's output into any other chat window than the main 'general' tab though. What am I missing?

This is the errormessage I get:

Thanks for your hard work.

I actually lost ALL my messages in any window that wasn't combat. I lost startup text, ALL chat, any reminder/status/skill up messages -- everything EXCEPT MrPlow.

Great work, though. I'm eagerly awaiting the fix. I may look into it myself, actually.

The messages I am writing about are the ones that let you know why something isn't working, like "bank is full" or "too far away" or "you are mounted".

It may seem trite to have to live without these, but they are something that I have gotten used to, as well as the "job's done" audio prompt from Questsfu that I have grown to really like.

I don't want to have to make a choice between the two.

Will there be a fix?

Thanks,

Arrow

Re: Questsfu breaks WOW interface messages

Disabling Player Status in Modules seems to be a temporary fix.

I edited the text scale in the Lua, which made the tracker legible.

Set this in Tracker.lua:

fontSizePercent=1.0

I installed it to replace MonkeyQuest, and all seems well, except quests are STILL popping up on the Blizzard Quest Tracker. I already disabled "Automatic Quest Tracking" in the options, and already checked to make sure it was still there. Anybody familiar with this kind of odd behavior? I never got this when MQ was installed.
