Cartographer 3.0
This is a map addon for World of Warcraft that replaces the map and offers shiny features.
The idea is for it to work very much like Google Maps, only in-game.
Cartographer 3.0 is brand new, "experimental" version of Cartographer.

Posted Jul 1, 2008Hello friends, ckknight here.
Waypoints is the only thing holding back v0.6 currently, and I have a good idea about how to go about it. There are also quite a few fixes and general polish already in it.
It shouldn't be too long now.

Posted Jun 27, 2008@IceHunter the "noext" files don't include items that are not required to run the addon. If you download the version that doesn't have "noext" following it then you will get the additional addons/information included with the download. In this case it is mostly ckknight's "Lib" addons (like guild positions).

Posted Jun 27, 2008I have been toying around with this addon for a while, and I would like to say that Cartographer is among your greatest works ckknight. One thing I would like to see, as mentioned earlier, is a click through map ability. If possible you could add a player defined modifier button to allow for moving of the map as it was intended. Just thought that might help with those who want to have the map running all the time. Makes a good replacement for the minimap if you don't require tracking abilities. Anyway, ty ckknight for never dissapointing. Keep up the good work.

Posted Jun 27, 2008Whether needed libraries are included in the addon or not. You can technically run the addon with libraries in your \AddOns\ folder rather than in Cartographer3, but it's more difficult.

Posted Jun 27, 2008Nice that it was brought up: Could you set a list of libraries that are in the full package so they can be installed & updated via wowaceupdater?

Posted Jun 27, 2008I'd say, but I see it changing too quickly for me to feel comfortable providing a list.

Posted Jun 27, 2008Hello friends, ckknight here.
For PvP objectives, other landmarks, and flags, I coded those in last night and decided to do a release called v0.5.1.
v0.6 will consist primarily of fixes to instances, getting them geared up for more work to be done (such as boss locations and instance loot later, possible v0.7) as well as adding a waypoint system. I'm going to have a real 3-dimensional arrow pointing the way instead of Cartographer2's fake 3d.
tye, for your requests for battlegrounds stuff, please file a ticket here: http://wow.curseforge.com/projects/cartographer3/tickets/ - anyone else who has ideas or finds defects, please file a ticket there, too.

Posted Jun 26, 2008thank you for allowing us to set the transparency, how about an option to not make it on top as well. I usually place it right above my char area, always open, which works great, the transparency will help... but making it so it is not on top of bags as an option would also be great... as would making it able to be clicked through.
And I agree, there is a problem with PvP objectives. Was doing some in Outlands, and while I knew where the towers were, they weren't showing on the maps.

Posted Jun 26, 2008I have to say, first off, I love the new battleground maps.
unfortunately cart3 still doesn't show pvp objectives :(
I think picture of carbonite 3 http://media.curse.com/adjust_images/resize/750x500/114/943.jpg and capping's right click 'report all AFK' menu show exactly what would make the perfect battleground module :D
as far as everything else, this is still a million times better than carbonite quest :D

Posted Jun 25, 2008Normally when it comes to future updates, unless author announces, its hard to say. I'm sticking with the old cart till BG maps are added. I feel in them with out them.
