MetaMap  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 20100-2
by: MetaHawk [More]

DESCRIPTION:
============
MetaMap adds features to the WoW world map, keeping all mapping type features in a single place.
Some features are:

Adjust the map window size.
Move the map anywhere on the screen.
Adjust the opacity of the window & maps.
Saved sets for toggling between 2 map modes.
Allows full player movement, messaging, etc. with map open.
Adds coords to the main map and the Minimap
Adds Instance maps which open to the correct instance you enter.
Default data included for all bosses & locations etc.
User editable notes for all maps, including instance maps.
NPC/Mob database collectable by mouseover or keypress.
Toggling on/off display of unexplored areas of the map.
Boss Loot Tables displays all the loot dropped by bosses, and more.
Waypoint system to guide you to any set point.
Complete Quest logger with optional history database.
Tracker module for gathering Herbs/Ores etc.
NoteBook module for additional notes, linked to Tooltips.
Inbuilt Import and export facilities for various data formats.
Inbuilt Backup and Restore facilities.
Button on Minimap to open or close the World Map or display MetaMap options.
Key bindings for various MetaMap functions.
Full support for Titan Bar.

INSTALLATION:
=============
Extract ALL folders in the archive to the Interface\AddOns\ location. If you wish the Instance maps to be populated with default information, then on first installation you will need to select 'Extended Options' from the MetaMap menu.
Select the 'Database' tab, then click 'Load Imports'. This will enable the default import button, 'Import Instance Notes'. Click on the 'Import' button to import the data.


ISSUES/COMPATIBILITIES:
=======================
Some addons may reset the map to gather location data.
If your map continuously jumps back to your current location when selecting another map,
it will be due to another addon resetting it. In most cases the authors have made changes
to correct this so, download the latest version of any conflicting addon.

Added frame level adjust for TitanBar button. Works correctly again now.
MetaMapTRK now saves options seperately for each character.
...(Currently looking at changing the map routines, which is likely to take some time).
...(Thought i'd get these fixes out in the meantime).

It's not just you, I have the green square as well. However, when I hover over it, I receive an error mesage:

Interface\Addons\MetaMap\MetaMap.lua:
2384: attempt to index field '?' (a nil value)

Missing Modules

I just started using MetaMap v20000-8. My first impression was that this is freakin awesome. I am very impressed with all the work you have put into this project. I am having some major problems however, and after reading through other posts, i am thinking its just me. The Icon on the compus is a small green square, still works. however it seems all the Modules (FWM, CVT, WKB, QST, FWM, BWP & NKB) are missing or disabled. All the boxes are checked. I am unable to "import" as well.

I currently have no other addons installed. I really want to be able to use this tool as it looks extremely useful. Please advise as to what i am doing wrong, or if i am missing part of the download.

******FIXED USER ERROR****** make sure file is opened with winRAR, otherwise there may be no folders, only files in zip. I hate you winzip!

Umm, that's not MetaMap. It's another addon I use called simpleMinimap.

Yep, fixed for both MetaMap and MetaHud.

This thing is becoming a real pain in the ass!!!! I cleaned everything out. Loaded -4 and downloaded the user file below. Imported it and all appeared ok. Played a couple of days and now all of a sudden the info on the right does not match up to the map OR sometimes the menu selections are not there at all. If I am doing something wrong please say so. If not how about some explicit instructions on setting this thing up from scratch. Thanks again.

Guess I'll just run MetaMap without the neato stuff, just maps, POIs and Boss loot, seems thats all I can get working.. hahahahaha

BTW - LOVE THIS MOD !!!!
Actually, that error is just an incorrectly named variable for stats display at the end of the process. Doesn't affect the actual import so, if you look at MetaMapWKB, you'll see that it has actually imported everything.

Deleted all my older MetaMap stuff from /addons and from /savedvariables.. this is what I've done every install so I get a brand new install..

Anyway.. enter game, set my preferences in MetaMap.. import (the one that comes with MetaMap).. reload UI.. and now as soon as I enter the game I get the follwoing error:

Interface\AddOns\MetaMapQST\MetaMapQST.lua:539: attempt to concatenate field 'qZobe' (a nil value)

And I still have no quests showing in the MetaMap Quest Log.

I'll probably just turn the MetaMapQST and MetaMapNBK portions off as I don't use them anyway.
The 'qZone' error is due to a missing ZoneName in the history part of the database for some. This is fixed for next version. However, all the data is actually there, so no worries on that side. Just that error is preventing it from actually being displayed.

thankyou meta for this great mod!

the conversion is here: by gorkish
