After I enable tag on quest log, the quest status (e.g. Completed) is no longer shown in the quest log. Any way to solve it? Thanks.

Is there a reason why in release 1 and 2 I can't see the progress of the people in my party?

In previous releases we could see the persons name in short form ( 3 letters ) and the progress. For example:

"QUEST NAME" - Min: 3/4
Quest Description...

As well, the announcing to a channel works 20% of the time as it seems.

With the bugs inherent in the 3.3.3 version shouldn't it maybe be listed as beta, and not release? I'm still using 3.3.3 and would even if it it were listed beta, but it is definitely not a release candidate quality. Hoping that a bunch of these bugs get squashed soon, I love TomQuest2, and look forward to an error free version.

Error messages do not work at all, as well as linking a quest in channels gives a quest id, and not a link to the quest.

I know that it should have been marked as beta (personally I would have marked it as alpha:) ) but blizz decided to change some return value in the gossip frame functions so the quest givers module would not work in 3.3.3.

This code is almost a complete rewrite of tomQuest2 that have been in alpha on WowAce for two months.

I'm currently more in the mood for play than in the mood for code ^^ But I'm still commited to polish this release

I have been using this addon for about a year and loved it. It made questing a lot more fun. Unfortunately, with this recent addon, I have encountered numerous interface issues and problems similar to what Myka and Ibna stated. I spent several hours trying different things (i.e., reinstalling reconfiguring, turning off other adds) but I still had the same problems. For example the Quest Tracker color wheel seems frozen for some color changes you can make and for others the changes do not take effect until you log off and back on. That's just a couple of the issues. After messing with it for several hours, I decided that I wasted enough time and uninstalled the addon. I will check back every few days to see if you have any new versions. Like I mentioned, I love this addon. When it works right, it's great. But, when it doesn't, it is really annoying and frustrating.

thanks for the update to start with,
only problem i have is indeed the 'Usable quest items not linked to a quest' function. on or of it wil show.

second is: if tomquest2 is running the blizz text like "you can't do that right now" or "you have to get closer to interact ..... " dont show anymore.
dont know how to explaine this otherwise ;)
turn tomquest2 off and they are back.

I'm having quiet a few problems with this version.

I deleted the old tomquest2.lua thinking that may have been causing issues, but no luck.

1. Upon initial login, the quest tracker doesn't show up. It autotracks all my quests on login like I ask, but it's doing it on the default Blizzard tracker. However, it DOES properly track the achievements window on login. To get the tomquest tracker up, I have to reloadui and then zone into a new subzone.

2. Even once the trackers are up, they will not actually show any objectives. I get the zone listing and the quest name, but no objectives. If I swap to another profile and back, it will display the objectives, but the tracker window is like 300x1500 and will not scale.

3. I have it set to never hide completed quests, but it still refuses to show them.

4. I can no longer use the color wheel in "Custom Objective coloring function". Clicking on the "Color for completion" boxes opens the pallet, but as soon as you try to choose a new color, the game starts to lag. Once you hit Cancel or Done, the boxes disappear, no changes are made and you have to reset the entire profile to get them back. However, you can change the colors by unchecking the "Hide custom color function setup" and using those sliders to edit the colors.

Thankyou for the update, love the addon. I've setup all my settings again since installing version 3.3.3 release 1 and everything seems to be working fine except for the 'Usable quest items not linked to a quest' function. Regardless of whether I toggle it on or off (I usually have it off) the 'Dartol's Rod of Transformation' I have in my bags still shows up in the Quest Tracker. That seems to be the only issue I've encountered so far, thanks again. :)
