Cartographer
CARTOGRAPHER HAS NOT BEEN UPDATED FOR 3.3!!!
DO NOT CREATE BUG REPORTS SAYING IT IS BROKEN!
There are no plans to do any major bug fixes for Cartographer (v2 or v3). If there is an update it will only be a minor fix. (It has already been this way since at least 2008.) Cartographer(v2) uses an outdated framework that will not be updated in the case of major breakages so Cartographer(v2) would require a complete rewrite. Neither of the two main developers (Ckknight and Arrowmaster) have the time nor desire to do this currently. Occasionally a new version might be released to include fixes made by other developers or new versions of embedded libraries.
Cartographer is a modular, lightweight, and efficient framework for manipulation of the world map. It is based on Rock and other libraries of the WoWAce community.
- Battlegrounds : allows viewing of battlegrounds outside of the zone.
- Coordinates : adds coordinates to the bottom of the world map of the player and the cursor.
- Foglight : Shows unexplored areas on the map. replacement for MozzFullWorldMap or Unexplorer. Much more efficient, though.
- Group Colors : turns all your party's and your raid's POIs into circles colored based on class, and shows a number on them based on their raid group.
- Instance Maps : shows maps of instances.
- Instance Notes : adds boss notes and such to instance maps.
- Look 'n' Feel : allows you to change the transparency, position, and scale of the world map.
- Notes : lets you put notes on the map, similar to MapNotes.
- Zone Info : on hovering over a zone, it will show the levels of the zone, the instances in the zone, their levels, and the group size the instance is made for (e.g. 5-man, 40-man).
same problem with mining nodes not display, its not tracking it.
is there a addon that allows you to see where your friends are on the map not only guild? if so, what is it?
for some reason i can only get fel iron ore to display for mining. nothing else will show up.
i have tried removing saved variables and re-installing.
any help would be appreciated
thjansk in advance
i cant seem to get the herbalism and mining or the quests or vendor locs or any of that stuff to work...the map works and the notes but the professions and quest stuff arent working...what exactly do i need to do to get it working? I did dl the packs for professions and trainers and quests and the like.
Make sure that the addon is "checked" when you get to the character choice screen in WoW. You won't be able to use it unless it is checked under the addons button.
Any way to show where the world pvp stuff, are like halaa, the spirit towers etc..?
What are the / commands for this addon i want to know how to find coordinates.
I have this error:
...\AddOns\Cartographer\Cartographer_Notes\Notes.lua:2959: attempt to index local 'icon' (a nil value) while in some Regions with one of my char (another char has the same add-ons, the same Carto options, and doesnot have this error)
Maybe this is a stupid question and I'm just blind but is there a way to make the map full-screen as opposed to the default setting of it only partially covering the screen?
Thanks
cartographer used to show all guildmates on the map...not it doesnt. why'd it change and is there an addon that does that now?
zvifflemeyer-it only shows guildies who also have the addon. Might want to double check and see if they're still using it.
Im having trouble with the professions section of this mod, everything else works fine, the files are all seemingly in the right place and under addons at the character selection screen they are all listed and activated. However when i go to the catrographer menu in game and go to professions, the only options shown in there are "about" and "enable" (which is checked) im sure there should be more options in here. Nothing happens when i mine/herb nodes or anything. Any ideas ?
I cannot get the addon menu to come up at the character screen. I had Cartographer months ago before I took a break, but now I can't get any mods to function. Any suggestions?
For quite some time I have been having troubles with notes displaying/being created properly. I ctrl-left click and it pops up with edit note but 1) The only thing I can edit about the note is the name....and even editing the name, the name wont display on the map. 2) It shows up as a gray little circle.
I can technically still use it to mark things, and I don't even mind the marks looking the same, but it's kinda irritating to not be able to see the names or easily delete the notes.
This is a really great mod i think everyone should get it
I cant get cartographer to work in outlands. Does anyone know what I can do?
I have a problem with the herbalism tool. Well, it does not work. It even seems that the recent versions of cartographer dont have herbalism impelemented. If i open the archive there is neither cartographer_herbalism nor cartographer_mining in the subdirectories and the install guide says to put in these folders to the WoW\Addon directory. Any ideas?
@Edit: Got it, thanks alincoln!
Not sure what is going on here: I downloaded and installed the latest versions of Outfitter and Cartographer. Now whenever I log on I get immediate error messages indicating that "GetQuestLogTitle" has been broken by an addon. The error message is so long it won't all fit in the box. I noted that the error was coming from "...addons\Cartographer\libs\AceEvent-2.0.lua:263: Quixote 1.0." I searched all the addons for a reference to "quest" and the only one was in Cartographer itself. Before you ask, I reloaded the upgrades (and the old versions of Cartographer and Outfitter) without any change, so whatever happened hosed something that isn't overwritten upon upgrading. On the plus side, I haven't noticed anything dysfunctional about any of my addons other than the annoying error messages.
Any suggestions?
can somebody help? Well I downloaded this addon to one of my folders. Then i opened it, copied it and pasted on C:\World of Warcraft\Interface\AddOns. But when i went to play wow there was no change made.. what Im I doing wrong?
