Blipstick

Version: 5.0.1.12-Release

by: Tekkub [More]

Blipstick is a simple addon to change the minimap blip textures. I wrote it because I didn't like the big huge '!' and '?' Blizzard used, so I adjusted the sizes a bit. Since then I've added in blips from other addons and created a config panel so the user can select the set of blips they like.

New blip textures are always welcome, send a pull request on GitHub.

It's in the Blizz config under addons. Let me know if you still can't find it.

Asked tekkub about slash commands and he said:

I don't plan to add slash commands that open config panels to any of my addons

You can access it via main menu->interface->addons->blipstick or if you have a Broker display it will show up there.

Code:

[2008/08/25 16:10:18-4685-x1]: Blipstick-3.0.1.4\Blipstick.lua:94: Cannot find a library instance of "LibDataBroker-1.1".
Ace2\AceLibrary\AceLibrary.lua:49: in function `GetLibrary'
Blipstick-3.0.1.4\Blipstick.lua:94: in main chunk

  ---

Was getting this same error with the previous version as well.
I run without externals if that helps at all.

Kuzah A Murloc Raider Forum posts: 9 File comments: 38 Uploads: 0	Hey fellas I was wondering if anyone can point me in the right direction. I was wondering how I can make my own blips and I noticed someone uploaded a .tga file for you at that link. I have no idea how to create a .tga file. I do have an older verison of Photoshop, but haven't used it much at all. My level of expertise is low to medium as I just use Photoshop to spiffy up forum sigs with fluffed borders or to use alpha for see through effects. So in short, 1. How to make blips. 2. How to put them in a format to submit.

I add it myself to mine, I can send them to you if you need. Thanks! __________________ I guess my brain will never work right. At least I’m pretty.

mark7777g A Defias Bandit Forum posts: 2 File comments: 38 Uploads: 0	Are you able to do this feature request? I wonder if this is possible but am not sure so I am making a request to see. Can you make it so that when a blip (ie a quest giver, mining, herb, tracking node, etc) appears on the minimap that there is a audible sound? of course it could be config to make the sound for which type blip user wanted as well as the sounds for each blip type. This would be awesome!! Thank you and I look forward to your input!

The short answer is no because this information is not accessible to the API because the dots are rendered with the mini-map.

Twiilight A Kobold Labourer Forum posts: 0 File comments: 1 Uploads: 1	is it possible for you to add party/raid to this addon? since blizzard has fixed the issue with blips scaling (or, no longer scaling) with the UI size, they are back to be huge. so, the party/raid blips are enormous on my minimap, and is driving me insane. greatly appreciated!
