Chinchilla   Popular! (More than 5000 hits)
I decided to make a minimap addon, born out of boredom and frustration. Personally, I think it's quite good, I tried to code it to the best of my ability. It is clean, modular, efficient, and overall worth trying out.

Chinchilla - Minimap addon of awesomeness. *chewing sound*. It'll nibble your hay pellets.

Modules, can be independently enabled/disabled:

* Appearance: change opacity, size, border, shape (not just square or corner, you can do sides as well), etc.
* AutoZoom: automatically zoom out after a specified time
* Coordinates: show customizable coordinates on or near the minimap
* MoveButtons: move your buttons around the minimap
* Ping: Show who last pinged the minimap
* Position: move the minimap and frames around it (specifically the Capture bar, Durability man, Quest tracker, and Quest timer)
* ShowHide: show and hide individual minimap buttons as desired
* WheelZoom: use your mouse wheel to zoom in and out of the minimap

the project has not been updated in a while but the addon still works.

for those of you missing the minimap tracking button, there might be a solution.

if you are using Elkanos buffbar, that addon has an option to disable the tracking button. all you have to do is right click the EBB button and uncheck the Hide minimap tacking button, and you should be good.

for those of you missing the calendar button. i suggest you look through all your addon options to see what is there.

i was missing bot the tracking and calendar buttons, i fixed the tracking with the EBB solution. the calendar button took me a bit longer and i figured out that the addon minimalist has a "hide minimap clutter option" it was checked and that is what was hiding my calendar button. so i unchecked it in minimalist and now everything works perfectly.

cheers

For some reason ckknight no longer updates his mods here (I have no idea why (looking might help but I'm lazy), and I f**king hate curse, which has lead me to look for alternatives).

Anyway, those desperate for Chinchilla, it's on Curse at http://wow.curse.com/downloads/wow-a...hinchilla.aspx

Sure wish we could get an update on this great minimap addon....

major problem is the location bar that shows up after a zone event.

Version linked a few posts down from wowace might also now be out-of-date.

There is a release version v1.2 at wowace dated 15 Oct 2008. Here is the project page.

Please share with me how you did this - I am checking /unchecking the boxes obvious to me with no luck.

I just got it and I really like it (though I wish the chinchillas showed when you put the minimap in the upper right corner)

Anyways! I use Tom Tom and found a little problem...





When i hover my mouse over the circled waypoint in #1 it shows the tooltip ok but when i hover the circled arrow in #2 the map covers the tooltip. Is there any way to resolve this?


Thank you =)
