LightHeaded  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: v100002-1.0.0-2022-12-15
by: Cladhaire [More]

Classic not updated at the moment, only retail.


LightHeaded is a very simple addon that displays quest information and comments from http://www.wowhead.com in game, eliminating the need to Alt-Tab when you get stuck on quest. This addon was inspired by qcomments and wowhead_quests, which both serve a similar purpose. Data is only loaded when you first request it, so you can be sure you're not using more memory than you need to.

I HIGHLY suggest using this addon with TomTom, another one of my addons (http://www.wowinterface.com/download...32-TomTom.html ). This allows you to simply click any coordinate in LightHeaded to add it to your map as a waypoint.

The following slash commands are valid:
  • /lh attach - Attaches the frame to the quest log
  • /lh detach - Detaches the frame, allows you to resize and move it
  • /lh sound - Toggles the open/close sound
  • /lh page - Toggles showing all comments on one page, or with multiple pages
  • /lh bgalpha <0.0-1.0> - Changes the alpha of the LH window background textures, so you can see the world.
  • /lh debug - Enables or disabled debug messages when loading quest databases
  • /lh config - Opens the LightHeaded configuration window
  • /lh autodetails - Toggle automatic opening of the Lightheaded window when clicking a quest in the objective tracker

LightHeaded now includes the English descriptions and introductory text for most of the quests in the game. This is disabled by default, but can be enabled for those players that are not playing in their native locale.

LightHeaded supports sending coordinates to TomTom, MapNotes, Cartographer2 and Cartographer3.

IMPORTANT: Addon authors that wish to use this API and data should
include the wowhead logo in the frame that displays this information.
They are kind enough to let me continue parsing their database, and we
owe them at least that much. Thank you.

Thanks for using my addons!

Updated 2022-12-15 for retail.

Maybe this will help.

en-gb client, all addons disabled except for LH, have cleared savedvariables.

As soon as I login I get

Interface\Addons\LightHeaded\LightHeaded.lua:896: attempt to concatenate field 'version' (a nil value)

Then when bringing up the questlog get an empty LH frame with the top border extending past the edge of the frame to the right.

I had the same issue. Carbonite Quest v1.170 http://www.wowinterface.com/download...niteQuest.html
was the addon causing the problem in my case.

Yes, the post-2.4 version has information for every single quest in the game, and quests with similar names/levels are not collapsed into single entries. This means it literally mirrors the wowhead information.

I've changed the file structure again, hopefully people can figure it out this time. Also resolved the known bugs at this point.

I can't reproduce this, are you using other quest addons that might be interfering? Please let me know if you can test by disabling all addons except LightHeaded to see how it acts.
