LightHeaded

Version: v90200-1.0.0-2020-12-09

by: Cladhaire [More]

Now updated for Classic, check "Other Files" and download the most recent 11302 version!

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!

Update for 8.0

This disables POI clicking integration, that will need to be fixed by finding
the correct function to hook to intercept. Searching and manually opening
works.

Fix LH waypoint set integration

- We now are able to properly reverse WowHead mapFileIds to the in-game
areaIds, so waypoints should be set in the correct zone.
- We don't know how to set a waypoint in an instanced zone, so we just
put those in the current zone
- Integration with MapNotes, Cartographer and friends always set in the
current zone.

This has been the case for at least 2 expansions. I haven't ever heard of a fix or a workaround. I just not and smile and say, "Of course, you want to make sure I'm helped. Thank you!" and click the X.

Why yes, I talk to inanimate objects all the time. Why do you ask?

Hrm. You run any quest log addon?

Quest Guru. I don't recall when I added it, but I've been running something to make the quest log more happy for me since they changed it and blended it with the map. I also don't recall when this persistence of Lightheaded started happening (that sounds like a book title...) but I find it minor. Sometimes hitting escape clears it, sometimes not. I'm trying to get everything settled out with Altoholic and Thaoky being back, so I haven't been on today yet to test it.

Ok, so far the only thing i noticed ( minor bug ) its that it does not save position and size ( tried fresh installa
/ relog / exit )

Thank you !

How do you stop a persistent tooltip of the quest you are looking up besides reloading and losing the quest you were inquiring? Bugs the shit out of me.
Cheers!

It usually ends up lagging new patches by a month or so, because otherwise there aren't any comments in the database to be downloaded. If people haven't had a chance to go through and respond with answers, there isn't any help to be had.

It's still working fine for older content, as in the base code is fine. I'm not getting any errors when I use it.

Some folks have asked for how they can donate money, and for many years I've enjoyed hearing about how my addons have helped other people enjoy World of Warcraft. If you would like to donate, I'd ask you to make a donation to the Colorectal Cancer Alliance, a worthy organisation that helped my sister immensely from her diagnosis through her final years. If you or a family member suspect you might have something not right in your butt, please have a doctor check it out. Colorectal cancer is one of the most preventable cancers in the world.
