Cartographer

Table of Contents

This project is abandoned and its default file will likely not work with the most recent version of World of Warcraft. Whether this project is out of date or its author has marked it as abandoned, this project is no longer maintained.

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 Cartographer(v2) uses an outdated framework that will not be updated in the case of major breakages so Cartographer(v2) would require a complete rewrite.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).

They fixed the group colors showing on the main map but they still do not show up correctly on the mini-map so hopfully they will fix this as the continue to update it. I am using the latest from http://wiki.wowace.com/index.php/Cartographer
Correction it works but you have to disable and re-enable group colors for them to correctly show on the mini-map after you upgrade.

No fix yet, we're waiting on some news about this. That Rock configuration thingy is the new configuration tool for FuBar & Cartographer it seems, although apparently it seems to handle most Ace2 based mods as well. It's pretty new (seems to be about less than a month) and people seem fairly mixed on it, some love it, many seem to hate it. Personally, I can't stand it. I loved my old configuration menus, but that's just me.

Yep, I confirm that Cartographer doesn't work. None of my Gatherer nodes are appearing, but if you mouse over the spot its there. Odd...

Cartographer no longer works since release of 2.2 client of Wow, french. Ace, Ace2 and Cartographer all updated. The addon does not appear when M key is pressed. The coords are visible but nothing else works. It's the game in map that shows. The guild installer gave everyone in the guild (over 80 people) the addon and it works _nowhere_

Can we get a bigger size of the configuration/setnotes etc windows please? your 100% is way to small - we shouldn't really need external programs to resize it should we? :)
Also, is there a commandline function to set a temporary waypoint like in Metamap?
like /bwp 22,22 - gets you a temporay pointer to this location
Also, there is no readme?
Also, it seems you intercept nodes and prevent gathere from recording their location?

For the person that requested a way to type in waypoints, it is the same as cartographer has always been. Just type "waypoint 42,20" or whatever coords you want. I just wish I could find the option on this latest cart to have my temp waypoints show up as an X on the mini map again.

You can type "/way 20,41" (or whatever coordinates you want) you don't have to type /waypoint.
In the rock configuration menu, click "cartographer" then click "waypoints" then check the "show waypoint icons" box. Now click the "notes" tab. Here you can use "Minimap icon size" to adjust the size of the minimap icons. Now when you make a waypoint it will automatically put a red x on the minimap at whatever size you set it to.

Cartographer pre-rock still works for me on 2.2. I still get errors every so often, but I can still add notes, and the instance maps still work. >.>

Can we get a version that doesn't have that terrible 'rock' thing?
It's changed cartographer from one of the best addons I've downloaded to one of the worst...

#354 Posted Sep 30, 2007

Currently these are the only two bugs I'm getting for Cartographer. I'm curious though to know if this first one is because the .lua file is partially coded in German as well as English. I had more last night until I realized that some of the cartographer files are double embedded in the main folder and WoW doesn't like to read those. Once I took them out and placed them directly into my addon folder itself the errors for them disappeared. My hope is that someone can fix the problems that may be occuring between Ace and Cartographer if this is the case (latest post from nidsche about the errors mentions this) seeing as I use Titan panel more so than Fubar. Tried both and just found Titan to be more workable for me. Titan's addons are mainly supported by Ace I think. I had Fubar going in a new UI after the patch and it made Cartographer go haywire so I went back to Titan.

I also get no errors, but the group colors won't work anymore. Everything is white, except for AFK debuffed people in battlegrounds, who are purple.

This doesn't work at all for me. I am so upset I need to have my cartographer back and no useful info is being posted here. Is anybody working on this? Do we need to give some donations to help out?
