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.

My mod just provides data, and displays it if you're using the default quest log. Other addons can access the information and display it as they see fit.

I can't thank you enough for this addon, hope you can find an easier way to update your database because I am sure doing it yourself is time consuming. My real question is, I don't suppose it would be possible to include support for:

http://wow.allakhazam.com/

It is a lot more widely used and complete than wowhead?

Unfortunately, not at this time. I'll look into it in the future.

My mod should work fine on even a slow computer.

Re: question

If you are crashing with mods, I suggest you increase the amount of memory for your add-ons. At your add-on screen, in the top right corner, click on the box with a 48 meg and change it to 55, that should be fine for add-ons.

There is no box. It was removed, because its unnecessary.

With the amount of work that has to go into Lightheaded with each update, I would expect it to take time. So if you feel the need to ask when the quest comments will be updated, dont... because chances are he is in the process of updating them.

LOVE the add on Clad Keep of the fantastic work!

Actually this is both a data update, and a complete visual revamp and feature update. Everyone will be quite pleased, I assure you.
