QuestJunkie

Version: 1.31

by: dragonflyy, Geneticus

QuestJunkie has two functions. First is a barker for when you complete a quest objective (settings are in the Interface Options Panel)

Second, QJ also allows you to browse the quests of anyone in your party that has QuestJunkie installed on their computer as well. Open your QuestLog to access this.

QuestBarker has been renamed to QuestJunkie. Look for other addons by me with the Junkie name

v1.31: Fixed a bug with patch 3.1 where the tables of your characters quests wasn't populating right. Please inform me of any other bugs you might encounter.

v1.3: Fixed a startup bug and added in a way for the quests to update. Will add a refresh button later. For now, to update the questlog view, just click on the Quest Log tab and go back to the QJ tab, or close QJ and reopen.

v1.2: Finished the main XML code, changed the selection of party members that have the addon from a drop down, to a tab system. Cleaned up the code so there isn't as much info being transferred between addons.

v1.1: Updated to WotLK

v1.0: Revamped QuestBarker and renamed to QuestJunkie.

----- OLD LOG! -----

v2.0: Added options through the Interface Options Panel. Added coding to start displaying party members quest log who also have QuestBarker.

v1.0: Initial release

Excellent news!

while you're at it.... a suggestion. If there was a header above or below the quest lists for your party member(s) where it showed you their current XP as well, it would be really convenient....

QJ is updated for WotLK ... also if you are looking for an Exp addon, check my ExpJunkie AddOn here

Thanks for the update!! Testing it out now. Does it always synchronize the party member quest lists when you load the tab and choose their name? or does it keep it stored locally and only updates as objectives are updated? Just curious if there was a way to for a resynch if needed or if based on how you have it updating, it's not needed.

2 suggestions:

The one would be a way for me to click on my party members quest from the list and have it share the quest with me. That would be a time saver.

The second is the party quests lists to indicate either how many other party members have the quest or the actual names of the party members who have the quests. The limitation of the blizzard UI is that it only shows you "nearby" party members.

Thanks for the great work!

Both suggestions are already in preperation ... as in a small bugfix. (if you open the quest window while QJ is showing it'll show both side by side)
Also on the updating ... I need to rewrite it as the communication is causing lag on the receiving end ... I'll look into an update system for it. Thank you for the feedback, it helps alot

Error at logon (happens all the time, including with only this mod & BugSack/!BugGrabber mods running): Interface\FrameXML\UIPanelTemplates.lua:20: attempt to index local 'tab' (a nil value): Interface\FrameXML\UIPanelTemplates.lua:8: in function `PanelTemplates_SetTab': QuestJunkie-1.2\QuestJunkie.lua:453: in function <Interface\AddOns\QuestJunkie\QuestJunkie.lua:441> QuestJunkie-1.2\QuestJunkie.lua:491: in function `QB_OnLoad' <string>:":OnLoad":2: in function <[string ":OnLoad"]:1>

dragonflyy An Aku'mai Servant Forum posts: 32 File comments: 70 Uploads: 5	Can you give a bit more information? It works fine for me and everyone in my family that plays. Make sure you have the latest version, delete the QuestJunkie.lua file in your WTF\Account\{account name}\SavedVaribles folder. Also are you running the English client? or another? If it's another it might be a localization oversight. Let me know what's up

TazRulez A Murloc Raider Forum posts: 5 File comments: 48 Uploads: 0	I am getting the exact same error as Zidomo. I am on the usEN client, using the latest QuestJunkie, I deleted the SavedVariables .lua file and reloaded WoW and i am still getting it. also if there is only 1 other person in my party and they have QuestJunkie, latest version, and i go to check their quest log, it doesn't update when they turn in a quest and get anoother. the only ways i can update it is to either reload my ui or invite someone else that has QuestJunkie as well. Otherwise Great addon. I had quite a few guildies download this so we can easily help each other with quests. Last edited by TazRulez : 12-06-08 at 10:44 PM.

Okay I think I got the error to go away, and now if you want to update the QJ Log, just close the window and reopen it, or click on the Quest Log tab, then on the QJ tab again. I'll make a refresh button for the next release.

In the first paragraph of my comment, I told you the version used, client language & the fact there were no saved variables present for the mod at logon.

Glad to see you've found the issue & have released v1.3.

zirquel A Defias Bandit Forum posts: 2 File comments: 4 Uploads: 0	Thanks! This is really appreciated. I've been lost without JasonQuest when helping my friends level since WotLK, and only just found this addon. I've just a few questions. First, is there a way to put up a quest tracker? Second, is there a way for it to utilize an extended quest log/frame? An example being found at http://wow.curse.com/downloads/wow-a...tails/eqf.aspx Sorry the description of that addon isn't overly in English, but it seems to function fine in the US version. Those might be implemented and I just don't see it. Is there a /command with more options than the interface menu provides? Third, not really important, and I doubt is there in any form. It might be neat to take use of Lightheaded for it. I don't know how you feel about that existing addon. In any case, thank you again for this wonderful addon! I'll continue using it whether or not the above is available. There's nothing else this efficient for these functions. -Zirq

Re: Thanks!

I can look into making it work with ExtendedQuestFrame ... that shouldn't be too hard. A quest tracker is a little more difficult but I can check into it. There is no slash command, the only options are to the announcement only (what commands might you be looking for/expecting?) Using Lightheaded would be the most difficult. I do like lightheaded but I don't know their code very well. Again I will try the suggestions.
