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.

Search your addon folders for other addons using Dongle, and verify they are up to date as well.

There are three addons: LightHeaded (newest one), ClearFont2d (newest one) and Clique (newest one but only running on a char without Lightheaded).
Strange is only the Date of the Dongle file: LightHeaded from 20.05., ClearFont2d from 21.05. and Clique from 28.05.

I don't know, I don't use any of those addons. Either way, there's little I can do to "support" them.

I think the version on curse.com is outdated. You may want to see if there's a newer version on http://files.wowace.com.

2. The 'share' or 'abandon' options are not clickable and therefore not usable.

Any ideas?

This is something the author of nQuestLog will need to do, I can't do anything from my end.

This is not a bug. The database is extensive, so its not loaded until you first request it. This is a feature :P.

Question: What's the likelihood of getting a quest/NPC lookup dialog in a future version of LH? The mod's great, but it's almost a shame that its cool functionality is limited only to supporting the quest log. I'd like to be able to browse through quests and NPCs myself, with criteria based on zone, quest name, NPC name, rep factions, etc.CC

We'll see. The addon isn't meant to replace wowhead but instead augment the information you already have in game.

1.) Disable all addons except LightHeaded.
2.) Log into the game
3.) Verify it works correctly
4.) Enable a group of addons
5.) Verify it continues to work
6.) Repeat.
7.) When it stops working, an addon you just enabled is causing some sort of conflict. Determine which addon it specifically is, and then report back.

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.
