LightHeaded

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.

What I'm saying is when i use your updater mmominion next to lightheaded it says by jawhitten
I thought you were the author of lightheaded forever and a day lol

Cladhaire Salad! Forum posts: 1935 File comments: 4939 Uploads: 19	I am. The updater isn't mine, and I cannot provide support for it. If you're talking about the MMOUI Minion available on this site, then you can post in the forums for that, as I can't provide individual support for it. My advice is just to not use an updater for LightHeaded. There's no need. __________________ "There's only one thing that I know how to do well and I've often been told that you only can do what you know how to do well, and that's be you-- be what you're like-- be like yourself.

I'll make sure to do that on the next build. __________________ "There's only one thing that I know how to do well and I've often been told that you only can do what you know how to do well, and that's be you-- be what you're like-- be like yourself.

Cladhaire Salad! Forum posts: 1935 File comments: 4939 Uploads: 19	Are all 9 LightHeaded addons present and enabled? There's no reason this would be a problem except for a.) the addons being flagged as out of date or not enabled, b.) the addon is not installed correctly. __________________ "There's only one thing that I know how to do well and I've often been told that you only can do what you know how to do well, and that's be you-- be what you're like-- be like yourself.

Reaper666735 A Defias Bandit Forum posts: 2 File comments: 65 Uploads: 0	Hello hi there , nice addon there , really enjoying it ^^ , but i was wondering about if you where interested in making the Lightheaded window also display the quest rewards ( gold and or otherwise ) when selecting a quest ? , i find myself looking for better armor or more usually Weapons or even Transmo items , and it would be real handy if i can see with each quest chain what the eventual benefits i would be gaining from doing them , would also be less waste of time doing a whole chain for nothing ^^ , anyway if you could think about this that would be nice , oh and btw i noticed you still have plugins to Cartographer 2 and 3 ? , that addon has been officially dead since 2009 + - lol , some over the Woltk period made some home made updates and posted them on curse or similar websites but even curse removed it from their database after Cataclysm hit , probably because the Lua coding its using since then and completely unusable , just saying

Some folks have asked for how they can donate money, and for many years I've enjoyed hearing about how my addons have helped other people enjoy World of Warcraft. If you would like to donate, I'd ask you to make a donation to the Colorectal Cancer Alliance, a worthy organisation that helped my sister immensely from her diagnosis through her final years. If you or a family member suspect you might have something not right in your butt, please have a doctor check it out. Colorectal cancer is one of the most preventable cancers in the world.
